XPARTCO DC64-00828B Dryer Door Switch
The XPARTCO DC64-00828B is an aftermarket replacement dryer door switch (also called a door jamb switch) compatible with a wide range of Samsung and Kenmore Samsung-built electric and gas dryers — including the DV2, DV3, DV4, DV5, DVE, DVG, 592, 401, and 402 series. The door switch is a small safety component mounted near the dryer door frame that detects whether the door is closed. When the door closes, the switch is activated, signaling the control board that the dryer is safe to start or continue running. If the switch fails to detect the closed door, the dryer will not start, will stop mid-cycle, or in rare unsafe failure modes, may continue running with the door open.
This switch directly replaces DC64-00828A (the prior version), 2071595, AP4578931, EAP4210965, PS4210965, PS4210964, 2071594, and PD00028436. It is constructed from durable plastic and metal in white, with dimensions of approximately 1.73"L x 1.73"W x 0.47"H. Note: while this switch looks easy to remove, the front panel actually needs to come off to access it cleanly. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO DC64-00828B Dryer Door Switch fixes Samsung and Kenmore Samsung-built dryers that won't start when the door is closed, stop mid-cycle, display error codes dC, dF, dE, or d0, or continue running with the door open. Approx. 1.73"L x 1.73"W x 0.47"H, white. Replaces DC64-00828A, 2071595, AP4578931, EAP4210965, PS4210965, PS4210964, 2071594, PD00028436. Compatible with Samsung DV2, DV3, DV4, DV5, DVE, DVG series and Kenmore 592/401/402-series dryers.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power and turn off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Although the door switch appears easy to access from the front, on most Samsung dryer models the front panel actually needs to be removed to install the new switch cleanly. Unscrew and lift off the front panel — be careful not to drop it during reinstallation. Locate the old door switch mounted near the door frame opening. Photograph the wire connections before disconnecting. Unplug the wire harness from the old switch, release the retaining tabs or remove the mounting screws holding the switch in place, and pull it free. Install the new DC64-00828B switch in the same position, reconnect the wire harness, and reinstall the front panel. Restore power, then close the dryer door and start a cycle to confirm the door is properly detected and the dryer runs normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do error codes dC, dF, dE, and d0 mean on Samsung dryers?
These door-related error codes on Samsung dryers all indicate the control board is not receiving the expected "door closed" signal from the door switch. dC and d0 commonly appear when the dryer cannot detect a closed door at the start of a cycle, while dF and dE appear when the door signal is lost during a cycle. The dryer's safety logic prevents operation under any of these conditions. Replacing a failed DC64-00828B door switch resolves these codes when the switch itself is the cause; if the codes persist after replacement, check the wiring harness between the switch and the control board for damage.
My dryer is running with the door open — what should I do?
A dryer that continues to run with the door open is a serious safety concern and should be addressed immediately. This usually indicates a failed door switch that is stuck in the "closed" position electrically, even though the door is physically open. Disconnect power to the dryer right away and avoid running it until the switch has been replaced. The DC64-00828B replacement restores normal safety behavior. Until the repair is complete, do not run the dryer.
What is the difference between DC64-00828B and DC64-00828A?
These are the same door switch across successive production revisions. DC64-00828A was the original part number and DC64-00828B is the current updated version. Both are fully interchangeable — if your dryer's parts diagram shows DC64-00828A, the DC64-00828B is the correct current replacement and is covered by this listing.
My dryer suddenly stops mid-cycle even though the door is closed — could this be the switch?
Yes — a door switch with intermittent contact failure is a common cause of unexplained mid-cycle shutdowns on Samsung dryers. The switch may be working correctly when first activated but losing its signal momentarily during operation due to vibration or worn internal contacts, causing the control board to interpret a momentary "door open" condition and stop the cycle. If this is happening repeatedly without any other identifiable cause, replacing the DC64-00828B door switch is the recommended fix.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured from durable plastic and metal to match the dimensions, switch contacts, and function of the original DC64-00828B dryer door switch.

XPARTCO 8572717 Washer Motor Start Capacitor
The XPARTCO 8572717 is an aftermarket replacement motor start capacitor for Whirlpool-built top-load washers and washer/dryer combination units. Unlike a run capacitor that stays in the circuit continuously, this start capacitor's job is brief and intense: at the instant the motor is commanded to start, it delivers a strong momentary boost of voltage to help the motor overcome its own inertia and get up to speed quickly. Once the motor reaches running speed, a relay switches it out of the circuit, handing off to the run capacitor for continuous operation. That short, high-stress duty cycle is exactly why start capacitors are a common failure point — they work hard for a fraction of a second on every single cycle start.
Rated 189–227 MFD at 125VAC, 60Hz. The capacitor is a black cylindrical component mounted to the rear panel of the washer, held in place by a small plastic retaining clip and wrapped in a foam shield that protects it from moisture. Common failure modes include the internal dielectric breaking down from repeated startup stress, and in some cases the capacitor overheating badly enough to produce visible smoke if it fails while still energized. A failing start capacitor produces a clear symptom: the washer motor hums but won't start, or the motor fails to spin up while other functions of the washer still respond normally. It directly replaces 357021, 3949169, 661606, W10161696, W10244889, AP6013434, AH11746660, EA11746660, EAP11746660, PS11746660, AWP49120, and PD00003006.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 8572717 Washer Motor Start Capacitor fixes Whirlpool-built top-load washers and washer/dryer combos where the motor hums but won't start, the washer won't agitate or spin, or there's a burning smell from the motor area. Includes foam shield. 189–227 MFD, 125VAC, 60Hz. Replaces 357021, 3949169, 661606, W10161696, W10244889, AP6013434, AH11746660, EA11746660, EAP11746660, PS11746660, AWP49120, PD00003006. Capacitors store a dangerous electrical charge even after power is disconnected — always discharge before handling.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer motor hums but won't start
Washer won't agitate
Washer won't spin or drain because the motor never starts
Burning smell coming from the motor area
Washer that starts a cycle but the drum never begins moving
Motor that struggles to start under load but may start when the drum is empty
Visible discoloration, bulging, or a burnt smell from the capacitor itself

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Capacitors Store A Dangerous Electrical Charge Unplug the washer or shut off the house circuit breaker before beginning. A capacitor stores an electrical charge even after power has been disconnected, and that charge can deliver a serious or fatal shock. Before touching either terminal, discharge the capacitor by shorting its two terminals together using an insulated-handle screwdriver, or by using a proper capacitor discharge tool with a resistor. Never short the terminals with a bare metal tool held with your bare hand. If you are not fully comfortable performing a capacitor discharge safely, have a qualified appliance technician replace this part instead.
⚠️ Transfer The Foam Shield To The New Capacitor Wear work gloves. Remove the washer's console and then the spring clips that secure the top/body assembly to the washer frame, using a putty knife to gently release them. With the body lifted or set aside, locate the capacitor — a black cylindrical component mounted to the rear panel, held in place by a small plastic retaining clip. Using a flat-blade screwdriver, gently pop the plastic clip away from the capacitor to release it. After confirming the capacitor is fully discharged, unplug it from the appliance wiring. Remove the foam shield from the old capacitor and transfer it onto the new one before installing — this shield protects the capacitor from moisture, and skipping it leaves the new part more exposed to washer humidity. Connect the new 8572717 capacitor to the wiring, snap it back into the plastic retaining clip in the same position, and reassemble the body, spring clips, and console in reverse order. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the motor starts promptly on both agitate and spin. Tools needed: putty knife, flat-blade screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver, insulated-handle screwdriver or capacitor discharge tool, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer motor hums but won't start. Is this the right part?
Yes, this is the classic symptom of a failed start capacitor. Since this capacitor's entire job is delivering the momentary voltage boost needed to get the motor spinning from a standstill, a failure here often leaves the motor energized and humming but unable to actually overcome its own inertia and start turning.
What's the difference between a start capacitor and a run capacitor?
A start capacitor works only for a brief moment — it delivers a strong voltage boost the instant the motor is told to start, then a relay switches it out of the circuit once the motor reaches running speed. A run capacitor, by contrast, stays in the circuit continuously while the motor operates, correcting current phase for efficiency. Because the start capacitor works so hard in such a short burst on every single start, it's a more common failure point than a run capacitor on this type of motor.
Do I need to reuse the foam shield from my old capacitor?
Yes, it's worth transferring. The foam shield wraps around the capacitor to protect it from moisture inside the washer cabinet, and reusing it on the new capacitor helps the replacement hold up the same way the original was designed to. If the foam has degraded significantly, you can skip it, but it's a simple step that adds meaningful protection.
My old capacitor got hot and smoked. Is that dangerous?
Yes — a capacitor that overheats to the point of smoking has failed in a way that can pose a fire or electrical hazard, and the washer should not be used again until it's replaced. This kind of failure typically happens when a capacitor stays energized longer than it should, generating heat it isn't designed to dissipate. Replace the capacitor and, if the washer's start relay or timer seems to be holding the capacitor in the circuit too long, have that checked as well.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications (189–227 MFD, 125VAC, 60Hz), cylindrical form factor, and mounting configuration of the original WP8572717 start capacitor used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, and related top-load washers and washer/dryer combos.

⚠️ Electrical Safety Warning This kit connects the power cord to the dryer's terminal block — a high-voltage connection carrying 240V. Always unplug the dryer and shut off the circuit breaker before beginning installation. Loose or improperly tightened terminal screws can cause arcing, overheating, blown fuses, or fire. If you are not comfortable working with high-voltage electrical connections, have this part installed by a qualified appliance technician.
Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug and Switch Off Breaker Before Starting Unplug the dryer from the wall outlet and turn off the circuit breaker for the dryer before beginning any work on the terminal block. Locate the terminal block cover plate on the back of the dryer and remove it by unscrewing the retaining screw. Use needle-nose pliers to carefully disconnect the power cord wires from the terminal block. Remove the old screws and nuts using a Phillips or flat-head screwdriver. Install the new 279393 screws and nuts into the terminal block. Reconnect the power cord wires to the correct terminals — refer to the label inside the terminal block cover or your dryer's wiring diagram to confirm wire positions. Tighten all screws firmly but do not overtighten. Replace the terminal block cover plate. Restore power and run a test cycle to verify correct operation. Tip: While the cover is off, inspect the terminal block itself (part 694431) for burn marks or damage. If the block is damaged, replace it before reinstalling. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver, needle-nose pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the terminal block screw kit used for?
The terminal block screw kit secures the three wires of the dryer's power cord (two hots and a neutral, or two hots and a ground depending on cord type) to the terminal block at the back of the dryer. This is the point where 240V power enters the machine. The screws must be firmly tightened to maintain a safe, low-resistance electrical connection. If they loosen or corrode over time, resistance increases at the connection — causing heat, arcing, blown fuses, or power loss.
Can I also use this kit when installing a new dryer power cord?
Yes — this kit is commonly needed when installing a new 3-wire or 4-wire dryer power cord. When switching from a 3-wire to 4-wire cord (or vice versa), the terminal block screws and nuts often need to be loosened and retightened, and replacing them with a fresh set ensures a secure, corrosion-free connection from the start.
Should I also inspect the terminal block itself?
Yes. While the terminal block cover is off, inspect the block itself (part 694431) for burn marks, melted plastic, or damaged terminals. If the block shows any of these signs, it should be replaced before reinstalling — new screws alone cannot fix a damaged terminal block. Contact our support team to find the correct terminal block for your model.
Does this kit work for gas dryers?
No. Gas dryers use a standard 120V three-prong household plug and do not have a terminal block for power cord connections. The 279393 kit is for electric dryers only, which use a 240V outlet and require a hard-wired terminal block connection for the power cord.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is made from chrome-plated metal to match the dimensions and electrical performance of the original 279393 screw kit.

12638000000786 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Drum Roller
The 12638000000786 is a genuine Midea OEM dryer drum support roller. This roller sits underneath the drum, along its support track, and does the physical work of holding the drum's weight while letting it turn freely as the belt drives it around. A dryer typically uses more than one of these rollers working together to keep the drum properly supported and centered.
Over time, the wheel and bearing inside the roller wear down from the constant heat and rotation the dryer subjects them to, eventually developing a flat spot, seizing up, or simply wearing thin enough that the drum sits unevenly. A worn roller produces a distinctive symptom: a rumbling, squeaking, or thumping noise that rises and falls with drum rotation, often getting louder as a load tumbles or as the roller continues to wear.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. On a gas model, also close the gas shutoff valve before moving the cabinet. Wear work gloves — sheet metal edges inside the cabinet are sharp. Access is typically through the rear panel: remove the screws securing the panel, then release the drum belt from the idler pulley to relieve tension so the drum can be supported and moved slightly for access to the rollers underneath. Photograph the roller and axle positions before removing anything. Remove the retaining clip or fastener holding the worn roller's axle in place, then slide the old roller off. Install the new 12638000000786 roller onto the axle in the same orientation, and secure it with the retaining clip or fastener. While you're in there, check the other rollers by spinning each one by hand — if any feel stiff, gritty, or worn, replace them at the same time, since they're typically the same age and wear on a similar schedule. Re-tension the belt around the idler pulley, reassemble the rear panel, restore power, and run a short empty cycle to confirm the noise has resolved. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer makes a rumbling noise that gets louder over time. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is the classic symptom of a worn drum roller. As the wheel and bearing wear down, the noise typically starts subtle and gradually worsens, often becoming most noticeable with a full load as the extra weight puts more load on the worn wheel. If the noise rises and falls in rhythm with the drum turning, a roller is the most likely cause.
Is this the same roller as your 12638000004021 listing?
No. These are two distinct Midea part numbers, and they do not cross-reference or replace each other. If you're not sure which roller your dryer uses, check the number stamped on your existing roller or contact our support team with your model number, and we'll confirm which one is correct before you order.
Should I replace just one roller, or all of them?
It's worth checking all of them while you have access. Dryers typically use more than one roller supporting the drum, and since they're the same age and under the same stress, if one has worn out the others are often not far behind. Spin each roller by hand — if any feel stiff, gritty, or rough, replace them together to avoid repeating this repair again soon.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Midea to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original wheel design, bearing, and axle fitment of the drum roller originally installed in your dryer.
