THANK YOU for posting this video. Just got a used dryer that is squeaking terribly. This video is right on the money. No fluff, just instructions and facts.
My GE Profile was a bit older than this model but came apart similarly. The belt was broken, glides were worn but not right through and it had a ton of lint build up in the blower assembly. I replaced the belt, glides and front felt. I also did a thorough cleanup of the blower and ducts. My 12 year old GE is now running like new. Thanks for a great repair video!
Just found your video and this is the exact same model that I have. The noise I had was a rumbling while the drum was turning. The problem was caused by lint packed into the vanes of the blower. Once this was cleaned out, the rumbling went away. Thanks for the great instructions on how to open up the dryer.
You saved me from costly dryer repair/replacement! I opened my dryer up and found a penny causing grinding between the plastic bearings of the door and the drum. Looks like there’s a bit of fraying on my belt as well but at least I can dry for now. Thank you so much!
Thank you SO much for making these repair videos, Ben! I have a new GE dryer just like this one, so having these videos available as a reference will certainly help me address any problems that may crop up.
Take care and God Bless.
Glad to help!
I just had an easy fix on my Maytag dryer, the door latch broke and fell inside the door itself got the model number and ordered a new latch and pressed it in no tools required. Probably saved myself $200 bucks from service call and parts. Your videos are much appreciated 😊
Thanks Ben, Your GE Dryer video helped me eliminate the screech I was getting. I had to pull it all apart and get the dryer drum out and grease center hub.
NICE!
Thanks for the video. I was apprehensive when I watched you getting the drum out thinking this was going to be difficult. But it turned out I just needed new drum glides. A very simple fix but would have been much more difficult without your explanation of getting the machine apart. I also noticed the rim of my drum felt rough and felt that it would eat through the new glides if I left it like that. So I took some steel wool and smoothed it out.
Nice, way to go!
Thanks so much you saved me a service call. FYI DO NOT remove the screws in the back of the drum to clean🤦🏼♀️I hope I have learned my lessons 🤣
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! You save me a hundred dollars😭😭😭😭😭 God bless you for share your knowledge to help others❤️
Outstanding video work Ben
I just wanted to let you know that you are amazing! Your suggestion to check the start button was spot on! That was exactly what was causing my problem. Thank you so much for your help.😂💪👋
So glad it helped!!! I just posted this video so it's great seeing that it's helping people!
Thanks Ben this was a big help. I love your videos they are always spot on. Keep then coming.
Thanks! Saved me a dryer repair bill!
After replacing dryer motor and rubber wheels to repair a Maytag Centennial Gas Dryer, I think the Maytag is easier to repair. Great vid!
Thank you for your video. The diagnosis and moving the front pannel out of the way portions were excellent. Thanks to your video, I found the problem in my dryer and fixed it.
Way to go!
It was the Teflon slide bearings. Thank you for the emoji and like.
I just fixed my own dryer. Thank you. This was great.
Glad it helped!
Well explained. Now I know how to open the dryer to be repaired.
Great camera work and narration
Thank you kindly!
I love your video. Thanks again
Excellent video and explanation. The best I’ve see even though it didn’t show my GE model.
Glad it helped! What is your GE model?

Thanks for the comprehensive breakdown, pulley trick was very helpful. Any recommendations on grease when installing a new Shaft & Bracket, would something like Permatex 80345 White Lithium Grease do?
That should work yes
Thank you for this! Hopefully I won't need to replace my dryer now. 😅
As far as dryer brands how do you like ADC. I picked up an ADC 20lb. Series 7 for the house. Except for it being very heavy and having to put in a 6-inch dryer vent this baby can really dry clothes fast. I'm pretty sure this will be very reliable its built like a tank. Have you had any experience with these?
What about the felt pads between the plastic glides? I just need to replace those little rectangular pads.
Thanks!
Question: looking straight back into the dryer, the silver piece with lots of holes, I unscrewed that and when I put it back on the dryer sounded lopsided. What can I do to fix this and do I have to take the whole dryer apart or can I fix it from the inside?
My GE gtd42easj2ww squeaks when spinning, could that be the front top plastic bearing, I noticed it also seems to drag down, sounds like grinding? Thanks in advance
I took my dryer drum out yesterday just to give it a ck . Vacuumed and all is good for a while.
Nice!
Does the ge dryer have bottom glides like on top ?
What are the part number or links for the upper and lower bearing housings. That the tub rides on.both are damaged. Thanks
Hey Ben, recently my washer started making a strange noise which is noticed by turning the tub by hand, and I don’t know what exactly it is. I have a video of the sound on my account. If you could watch it and please let me know as to that that sound could be! I would really really appreciate it. Thanks so much.
Great channel, what do you say about electric ranges that zap you through the burner even after an element change? Fix or new stove time?
Yikes! Thats scary!
Have the same dryer. Is it possible i could send you a video of it running. Its like 2 years old and during a cycle the sound has changed. Trying to figure out if its normal or not
I would like a review on the new ge washer and dryer combo
I already have one on the channel?
Hi Ben great video. I was wondering if you knew where I could get the felt that the drum rides on at the top along with the slides. My slides look good but the felt is about gone. Any ideas? Or do you just use a normal roll of felt cut to fit?
Hi, the glides are here: bens-appliances.com/products/we3m51cm-ge-drum-bearing-glide-nylon?
The felt should be this: bens-appliances.com/products/ge-lower-drum-dryer-felt-we09x20441-for-ge-hotpoint-and-mabe-dryers?_pos=1&_sid=daf79c858&_ss=r
Since there aren't any noise demonstrations, are the "unhealthy" noises always dramatic enough to be obvious? I took this model apart a couple times before having the benefit of your videos. (Two of my plastic knobs were broken after only about 5 years!)
Hey just found your feed I was looking for some information on dishwashers. Bought a Whirlpool dishwasher 5 years ago and now it doesn't spray inside I've replaced two of the cheap pieces which did not fix it and now the motor if I add $100 to it I get a brand new dishwasher so😮. Anyway I looked it up on the internet and they're supposed to last 10 years and this was 5 years in when mine quit working the range anywhere from 1500 to 500.00. I agree with you on the refrigerator unit I've never liked the ice and water in the door it's just too much what are you want to do is keep your food cold thanks
this video has nothing to do with dishwashers XD
i use a leaf blower to clean my dryer out works great but has to be away from any building because most dryers are filthy
Air compressor 👍
Can you please recommend a basic refrigerator please. Nice but basic!
I really like ultra basic Frigidaires like the one I mention in my videos all about what to buy for refrigerators
You didn't do anything but take it apart and put it back together. What did you fix?
I showed what could go wrong... Sometimes I take them apart to show where the issues are. On this unit, the main issue was a bad door switch.
The glides on top are green looking an the other one are clear is there a difference?
Shouldn't be
wish you showed how to remove the top controller modular.
I'm not sure what you're talking about?
It skipped the part about accessing the back screws. It just skipped to unscrewing them. No decription of how to access that area.
Other than that your videos are great Ben. I already fixed my washing machine. The dryer looks a lot tougher, but no one gives more detail about the machines than Ben. Thank you.
Hi Ben which dishwasher would you recommend. I had a seers Kenmore elite which has been 14 years now and no problems at all but it needs to be replaced because it’s on its last leg now. Any recommendations would surely be appreciated
Bosch. Very quiet.
You have the same voice as investmentjoy
He's my twin brother
no more maytag uniform?
Just for this video. Last suit got kind of damaged so had to get a new one.
@@bensappliancesandjunk love the video series, it's helped me more times than I can count
Here is my best advice for a GE or Hotpoint. Don't buy one. Ever. The worst dryers ever.
Samsung
GE makes the crappiest appliances! Look at that top, totally gay.
