The WW03L00336 is the genuine OEM end-of-cycle buzzer for GE and Hotpoint dryers. The end-of-cycle buzzer is a piezoelectric or electromagnetic signal component that sounds at the end of the drying cycle to alert users that the load is ready to be removed. When the buzzer fails, the dryer completes its cycle silently — clothes sit in the drum unattended, leading to wrinkles and the need to re-dry. This OEM replacement restores the end-of-cycle alert and helps prevent wrinkle-set in freshly dried loads.

The WW03L00336 buzzer is wired into the dryer's control circuit and receives a signal from the timer or control board at the end of the cycle. The buzzer converts this electrical signal into an audible tone. Buzzer failure is typically caused by a failed internal element or a broken solder joint on the terminal tabs. Before replacing the buzzer, verify the control board or timer is actually sending the end-of-cycle signal — if the dryer has no end-of-cycle signal and also has other control issues (incorrect cycle timing, no heat), the control board or timer may be the root cause rather than the buzzer itself.

✓ Common Symptoms Fixed

✓ Installation Tips

Disconnect power before beginning this repair. Repair difficulty: 2/5. Estimated time: 20–40 minutes. The end-of-cycle buzzer is typically located on the control panel assembly or inside the control console at the top of the dryer. To access: remove the control console screws and carefully lift or tilt the console to expose the internal components. Locate the buzzer — it is a small cylindrical or disc-shaped component with two terminal connections. Disconnect the terminals, remove any mounting screw or clip, and swap the buzzer. Reconnect the terminals, reassemble the console, restore power, and run a test cycle to verify the end-of-cycle signal sounds correctly.

✓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if the buzzer is the problem and not the control board? If the dryer completes its cycle correctly (correct timing, heat, spin) but produces no end-of-cycle sound, the buzzer is the likely cause. If the dryer also has timing or heat issues, the control board or timer may be the root cause. Contact us with your model number for a diagnosis before ordering.

Is the end-of-cycle buzzer the same as the start buzzer? On most GE dryers, the same buzzer component handles all audible signals. Replacing WW03L00336 will restore all buzzer functions, not just the end-of-cycle signal. See our GE Dryer Parts Canada page for related parts.

Is this a difficult repair? Rated 2/5 difficulty. The buzzer is accessible after removing the control console, and all connections are plug-in terminals. Contact us if you need model-specific guidance on accessing the console on your dryer.

Does WW03L00336 replace WE4M318? Yes — WW03L00336 is the current OEM part that supersedes WE4M318, WE4M397, WE1M690, WE1X690, WE4X834, 248C1007P002, and WG04A02764. All are the same buzzer; order WW03L00336 for the current version.
