GTDS560EF3WS General Electric Dryer - Instructions

I broke the handle

As I pulled each of the 3 bolts, I put a alignment rod into each of the holes. After I pulled the old deflector off, I had basically 3 pins/rods to slip the new deflector on and keep everything in basic alignment. Pulled one rod, reinstalled the bolt, so on and so on. Ran motor for noises or misalignment and had neither. Pretty simple repair.

Open up the unit's lid first and then removed the front panel. Then I removed the broken belt and then routed the new belt around drum, through the belt tensioner, and onto to the motor pulley. I checked to make sure the belt was securely in place and if it would rotate the drum. Once I was positive it was in place I put the dryer panels back together, plug in the dryer, and tested operation. The only thing that was difficult was trying to figure out the routing of the belt through the tensioner because the old belt wasn't in place anymore. In all it was a 45 minute job.

Very satisfied. I simply took the plastic door handle out of the package and snapped it into the door. It popped right in and fit perfectly!

I ordered the new part as listed and it came in two days, which was amazing to me since it was the week before Christmas. I snapped it in in less than a minute and all is well. Thank you for being so prompt on sending this out. Made the holidays a lot easier.

Clipped on.

Removed door and two screws to replace the door handle. Reassemnled in reverse order. It was a snap.

Just popped the new door handle on.

This repair was SO easy, it took less than 5 minutes. All I had to do is snap the door handle into the slots and it was finished. "Piece of Cake"!

The door to the clothes dryer would not open without the handle. To be able to use the dryer I secured the handle in place with packaging tape. The Part Select website made it extremely easy to identify the replacement part using just the model number. I placed the order on Thursday afternoon and received the part on Friday morning. I had to twist the broken handle to remove it from the door. Then I was able to snap in the replacement handle back in place with little force. Thanks to Part Select my problem was easily rectified.

The pkg. came, I opened it and snapped the handle into the dryer hole & Wham -done!
No tools, no sweat! Could not believe how fast the door handle arrived-GREAT job!!! Will use this company again and tell my friends.
5 stars!!!!!!!

The door handle clicked into place (10 seconds).

it was easy, it clip right on.needed to give it a little tap to get it in .

I removed the two screws inside the door and popped the top loose. I took the top off to see and have access to the interior. I leaned the front out and inserted the belt around the drum (with my wife's help), replaced the screws and laid the dryer on it's face on a rolled up blanket and proceeded to run the belt around the pulleys (two). The drive pulley was easy but the idler pulley, not so easy. I had to figure out how the pulley arm was supposed to provide tension on the belt. I figured it out by looking at the diagram. It was then I found the idler pulley was broken and fell apart in my hand. I advise that a new pulley be installed at the same time as the belt. Everything I read on your web site helped.

removed two phillips screws from front panel, removed front panel and raised top cover, had my wife hold up top cover while i removed belt and installed new one, reassembled in reverse order, turned on dryer and checked for proper operation, and yes i did unplug the unit. worked great!!
