Does Frigidaire make dryers?
Yes. Frigidaire manufactures clothes dryers, including the Frigidaire GLEQ332AS1 dryer model. For operating basics, safety information, and care guidelines specific to your unit, use the GLEQ332AS1 owner's manual.
What this means for parts and service
Because Frigidaire makes this dryer, you can match replacement parts directly to model GLEQ332AS1 for the best fit and performance.
Common Frigidaire dryer parts you may replace over time include:
- Drum belt (if the drum will not turn)
- Heating components (if the dryer runs but does not heat)
- Thermostats and thermal limiters (if it overheats or shuts off)
- Door latch components (if the door will not stay closed)
- Drum support parts (if it squeals, thumps, or scrapes)
Quick examples of model-matched parts
Here are a few examples of parts available for Frigidaire GLEQ332AS1:
| Symptom | Likely area | Example model-matched part |
|---|---|---|
| Drum not turning | Drive system | Belt 134503600 |
| Loud squeal or scraping | Drum support | Dryer drum bearing kit (support hardware) |
| Runs but no heat | Heating circuit | Frigidaire dryer heating element assembly |
Why it matters
Using the correct brand and model number helps prevent ordering the wrong part and reduces repeat breakdowns. Your GLEQ332AS1 owner's manual also shows where to find the model and serial tag (typically at the door opening) so you can confirm you are matching the right dryer.

How much does it cost to replace a heating element in a Frigidaire dryer?
Replacing the heating element in a Frigidaire dryer like model GLEQ332AS1 typically costs $200 to $400 total (part plus labor). If you do the repair yourself, you usually pay mainly for the heating element assembly and any related thermostats or hardware.
Typical cost breakdown (part vs. labor)
Costs vary by location and whether additional heat-safety parts failed when the element burned out.
- DIY (parts only): usually $100 to $200
- Service call + labor: usually $100 to $250
- Common add-ons: thermal limiter, high-limit thermostat, vent cleaning
| Scenario | What you pay for | Typical total |
|---|---|---|
| DIY replacement | Heating element assembly only | $100 to $200 |
| DIY plus safety parts | Element + thermostat/thermal limiter | $120 to $260 |
| Pro repair | Element + labor + service call | $200 to $400 |
Parts that commonly get replaced with the element
If your GLEQ332AS1 overheated (often from restricted airflow), we often see one or more of these replaced at the same time:
- Frigidaire dryer heating element assembly 131553900
- Thermostat 134120900 (thermal limiter)
- Kelvinator dryer high-limit thermostat 3204267
- Drum belt inspection while open (cracks, glazing, slack)
Why it matters (and what drives the price)
A failed heating element is sometimes a symptom, not the root cause. Poor airflow can overheat the heater housing and repeatedly trip or damage thermostats, which increases the total repair cost and can shorten part life.
Before you buy parts: quick checks that prevent repeat failures
Use these steps to avoid replacing the element and having it fail again:
- Clean the lint screen and wash off fabric-softener residue
- Confirm strong airflow at the outside vent hood
- Inspect the vent duct for kinks, crushing, or heavy lint buildup
- Make sure the dryer is on the correct heat setting and not overdrying
- Follow the disassembly and wiring notes in the GLEQ332AS1 owner's manual

What does code e64 mean on a Frigidaire dryer?
On the Frigidaire GLEQ332AS1 dryer, error code E64 points to a heating circuit problem, most commonly a failed heating element or an open in the heater circuit. We focus troubleshooting on the heater, thermostats, wiring connections, and airflow.
What to check first (safe, fast checks)
- Reset power: unplug the dryer (or switch off the breaker) for 2 minutes, then restore power.
- Confirm airflow: clean the lint screen and make sure the vent is not crushed or clogged.
- Run a timed dry, high heat cycle and see if the drum tumbles but heat is missing.
- If the dryer overheats or shuts down, stop using heat cycles until the cause is corrected.
Parts commonly involved with E64 on this model
If the dryer tumbles but does not heat, these are the most likely components to test or replace:
- Frigidaire dryer heating element assembly 131553900
- Thermostat 134120900 (thermal limiter style safety device)
- Kelvinator dryer high-limit thermostat 3204267
Quick symptom-to-part guide
| Symptom | Most likely area | What we do next |
|---|---|---|
| Tumbles, no heat | Heating element circuit | Ohm-test heater and heater wiring |
| Heats briefly, then stops | High-limit protection tripping | Check venting, then test high-limit thermostat |
| Clothes take too long to dry | Restricted airflow | Clean venting and lint path before replacing parts |
Why it matters
A heater circuit fault can leave the dryer running without drying, or it can cause overheating protection to trip. Fixing airflow issues first prevents repeat failures of the heating element and thermostats.
Helpful references for this dryer
- Use the wiring and component access guidance in the GLEQ332AS1 owner’s manual.
- If your display shows other codes, use Frigidaire dryer error codes to match the code to the most likely circuit.
