Frigidaire FAQE7111LW1 dryer Parts

On your Frigidaire dryer, the model number label is typically located around the door opening; for the FAQE7111LW1, check along the top edge of the door opening first. The same label usually lists the serial number as well; record both before ordering parts.

Quick steps to locate the model number

• Open the dryer door and look along the top of the door opening.
• Check the inside edge of the door opening on the cabinet frame.
• Wipe the label gently; lint and residue can hide the print.
• Take a clear photo of the full tag (model and serial) for reference.
• Match the model number exactly, including all letters and numbers.

What the label helps you do

Having the correct model number ensures we can match the right diagrams, installation details, and parts for your exact dryer.

You need	Why it matters	Example for this dryer
Model number	Ensures correct part fit and wiring/feature match	FAQE7111LW1
Serial number	Helps identify production variation and revisions	Listed on the same tag

Why it matters

Frigidaire dryers can use different components across similar-looking models. Using the exact model number helps avoid ordering the wrong items (for example, a belt, door switch, or lint screen that looks similar but mounts differently). For additional label-location and identification details, use the FAQE7111LW1 installation guide.

Poor drying on a Frigidaire FAQE7111LW1 dryer is almost always an airflow problem (lint screen, blower area, or venting) or a heat-control issue. We start by restoring full exhaust airflow to the outdoors, then check common heating sensors if airflow is already strong.

Quick checks that fix most “not drying well” complaints

• Clean the lint screen before every load; wash it with warm water and a soft brush if you see a waxy film.
• Confirm the dryer exhausts outdoors (not into a wall, attic, crawl space, or other enclosed area).
• Replace any flexible plastic vent; it can collapse and trap lint.
• Inspect the vent hose behind the dryer for kinks, crushing, or long runs.
• Check the outdoor vent hood for a stuck flap or lint buildup.

Airflow vs heat: how to tell what’s wrong

What you notice	Most likely cause	What to do first
Clothes warm but still damp	Restricted airflow	Clean venting and check blower path
Dryer runs but little or no heat	Heating circuit/sensors	Check thermostats/thermal limiter after airflow
Dry times suddenly doubled	Vent hood blocked or duct crushed	Inspect outdoor hood and behind-dryer duct

Parts that commonly affect drying performance

If airflow is good and drying is still weak, these parts often cause cycling or no-heat symptoms:

• Dryer lint screen 137560710 (a damaged or poorly fitting screen can leak lint into the blower and duct)
• Dryer thermistor 134587700 (temperature sensing)
• Dryer inlet thermal limiter 137032600 (opens if overheating occurs)
• Kelvinator dryer high-limit thermostat 3204267 (overheat protection)

Why it matters

A dryer that cannot exhaust properly will dry slowly and can overheat. The installation requirements for this model emphasize exhausting outdoors and avoiding flexible plastic venting because crushed or lint-trapping ducts restrict airflow.

Model-specific reference

Use the venting and exhaust requirements in the FAQE7111LW1 installation guide to confirm your duct material, routing, and outdoor termination match the recommended setup.

Yes. For your Frigidaire dryer model FAQE7111LW1, looking up parts by the full model number is the most reliable way to match the correct replacement part because it filters results to the exact drum, motor, heating, and door components used on your dryer.

How to find the model number and use it

Use the complete model number exactly as shown on the dryer’s data tag, then search parts using that number.

• Locate the data tag on the dryer (commonly inside the door opening or on the cabinet opening)
• Write the model number exactly, including all letters and numbers (example: FAQE7111LW1)
• Use the model number to view diagrams and part lists for your exact configuration
• Cross-check the part name and part ID before ordering
• Confirm installation and safety notes in the FAQE7111LW1 installation guide

Examples of parts you can match to FAQE7111LW1

Once you search by model number, you can quickly narrow down common wear items.

What you’re fixing	Common matched part for this model	What it does
Drum not turning, squealing, or thumping	White-westinghouse dryer drum belt 134719300	Turns the drum using the motor pulley and idler system
Rumbling or thumping noise	Dryer drum support roller 5304523152	Supports the drum as it rotates
Dryer overheating or shutting off	Dryer high-limit thermostat 3204267	Helps prevent unsafe high temperatures

Why it matters

Dryer parts can look similar across Frigidaire-built models, but small differences (belt length, roller style, thermostat ratings, harness connectors) affect fit and performance. Searching by FAQE7111LW1 helps prevent returns and repeat repairs.

Pro tip for troubleshooting before ordering

If you are chasing a symptom (no heat, long dry times, error codes), start with the basics first.

• Clean the lint screen and check airflow
• Inspect the vent for kinks or clogs
• Verify the door closes and latches properly
• Use the Frigidaire dryer error codes reference if your display shows a code

For a Frigidaire dryer like model FAQE7111LW1, a replacement control board price depends on the exact board type and part number; most Frigidaire dryer control boards typically run about $150 to $300. Use the part number on your board to price the correct match.

How to identify the correct control board for FAQE7111LW1

Control boards are commonly sold as either a main control board or a user interface board. To avoid ordering the wrong one:

• Unplug the dryer or switch off the breaker before opening the console
• Remove the control console cover and locate the circuit board label
• Write down the full part number and any revision number on the label
• Match the connector layout (plugs and pin positions) to your wiring harness
• Use the wiring and access guidance in the FAQE7111LW1 installation guide

What to do if you do not see a control board listed

On our FAQE7111LW1 parts list, the currently highlighted parts do not include a control board. When that happens, pricing and ordering works best by searching with the board’s printed part number.

• Search by the board’s part number (not just “control board”)
• Check for substituted or updated part numbers
• Compare “main control” vs. “console/user interface” descriptions
• If the dryer will not start, also check simpler failures first (door switch, thermal limiter)

Quick comparison: board types and symptoms

Board type	Typical symptoms	Typical price range
User interface board	Buttons do not respond, display issues	$120 to $250
Main control board	No start, stops mid-cycle, erratic operation	$150 to $300

Why it matters

“Control board” is a generic term; Frigidaire dryers often use more than one board. Matching the exact part number for your FAQE7111LW1 prevents wrong connectors, repeat disassembly, and unnecessary returns.
