MTMX050EF5WW General Electric Dryer - Instructions

Looked at the diagram on your web site and replaced part

Originally I thought that the Start switch was the issue, and ordered one. After taking the machine apart and running some tests, the issue was clearly not this switch, but a different switch that cuts power when the belt tension is no longer being applied to the idler pulley spring. I fixed this by bypassing this switch, which in my opinion, is error prone and serves no purpose. The switch can be accessed by removing the control panel, then top cover, then front cover, then drum. The bogus switch is screwed to the bottom left, near the motor. The idler pulley spring rests against it. Just disconnect the switch wires, then clip, strip and crimp then together to bypass the switch, and voila! Now if the belt breaks or comes off the pulley, the motor will continue to run, but you wont hear the wet clothes flopping around, so that will be the indication that you have a belt problem. Hope that helps!

removed remaining handle pieces and simply snapped the new part in place. very simple,very easy.

Snap off and then snap New one on.

Called my son-in-law. Easy as pie

inserted on an angle and snapped in place.
The best part of this story was I ordered the part on a Saturday and got it on Monday evening.
The repair took less than 20 seconds. I am extremely impressed with the fast fast fast shipping time.

After removing pieces that were stuck in the door, I simply popped the new handle in place. It took less than a minute. What was the easiest was ordering and receiving the new parts- I ordered and 2 days later I received the new parts. I didn't expect to get the new parts for at least a week.

Snapped on new handel. Took all of 5 seconds. The hardest part was finding the part, which your website took care of....Thanks!

I just snapped the door handle on the dryer in less than a minute. I am completely satified. Did I mention I received my part in one day. I ordered online before 3pm and received it the next day before 11am. Very impressed. Thanks PartSelect!!!

I broke the handle

When I first ordered the part, I did not know I needed 4 slides for the bearing. 2 of my slides had disintegrated. Make sure you have 2 good white slides, and 2 good blue slides, or order them with the bearing, or you will pay another $7.50 for shipping.
Once I got all of the parts and put it together using only common sense, I found it was binding tight. So I realigned the back of the drum that I had messed up while I was trying to diagnose the problem.
Parts Select definitely helped with diagnosis, through this comment section.
Thanks!

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).
