We had a squeaky dryer and replaced the front drum bearing and the bearing slides. The squeak has stopped, but now it won’t stay running for longer than 5 minutes. We took it apart again and vacuumed out everything including the motor. We also cleaned out the exhaust hose. Still nothing. We then tried running without heat and it works that way, but as soon as we turn it to the heat setting, off it goes again. Did I mention it is raining and I really need jeans :mad: . Any suggestions what to try next?
Hello . Hello here is a link to show you what I’m talking about, your temperature switch is no longer avaialble it is # 87 on this diagram Replacement parts for General Electric DBXR453EV0WW Electric dryer | AppliancePartsPros.com. And most likely if when you turn the switch over to the heat selection and it stops, tells me switch is shorted, the bad part is they are not available any longer. Thank you and good luck !
