GE dryer model GFDS350EL1WW has snapped power button reattach how/where
« on: March 14, 2017, 12:35:23 PM »

My fairly new but out of warranty dryer GE model GFDS350EL1WW has a snapped power button which no longer makes contact to turn on. I removed panel and see where it goes but where do I apply epoxy? On the back of front panel or other? :thanks: :thanks:

I assume that the plastic tab that the power button "flexes" on is broken. I don't think there is a reliable way to repair it besides just replacing the console. The console part # is WE19X1656. Probably cost you around $150.

WE19M1656 This is the correct part number.
