Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Visible tears, holes, cracks, or deformation in the filter or mesh
• Lint remaining on clothing despite a clean filter
• Longer-than-usual drying time when the filter is damaged, clogged, or not sealing correctly
• Clothes or fabric catching near the lint-filter area

Check Before Replacing

• With the dryer stopped and cool, remove the filter and inspect the mesh, frame, and edges for tears, holes, cracks, or distortion.
• Hold the clean, dry filter up to a light and check for damaged or open areas in the mesh.
• Confirm that the filter seats fully and evenly in its installed position without rocking or leaving an obvious gap.
• Clean the filter before checking performance; wash periodically with warm soapy water if fabric-softener residue is present, then dry it thoroughly before reinstalling.
• If drying is slow, also check that the external exhaust duct is clean, unobstructed, and free of severe kinks; these symptoms are not unique to the filter.
