Roller Assembly (All Models); Exhaust Thermal Limiter (All Models) - Frigidaire Dryer Servicing

Roller Assembly Removal (All Models)
There are five roller assemblies that the dryer drum rides
upon. The roller shafts are secured to the outside of the
inner panels by a 9/16" nut. The rollers slide onto roller
shafts and are secured with triangular retainers.
To remove the roller assemblies:
1. Disconnect the dryer from electrical supply, then
remove the top panel, rear panel, console, front
panel, front inner panel and drum.
2. Using a 9/16" socket or wrench, remove the nut
from the roller shaft securing it to the inner panel.
A 3/8" wrench can be used on the opposite end
of the shaft to stop the shaft
from turning while loosening and tightening the
nut. (See Figure 4-28)
NOTE
With the drum removed, all roller assemblies
are accessible. Figure 4-28 illustrates the front roller
assemblies.
3. Pull roller assembly from inner panel.
4. Use a small flat bladed screwdriver and remove the
triangular retainer from the roller shaft. Pull the
roller from the roller shaft.
