Hello, DIY! I have what is hopefully a quick question. Would anyone be able to help identify what this connector is and what the best way to replace it is?​Context: My old GE DPSB513EB0WW dryer stopped producing heat. Suspecting it was the heating element, I ordered a replacement and was able to swap it out. When swapping it out, one of the wires coming from the motor fell off its heating element connector with no resistance. I didn't think anything of it, put the dryer back together, and ran it for a minute. I noticed very quickly that the dryer was overheating, so I stopped it, disassembled everything, and in the course of reattaching all the connections, the wire that fell off came off again, but the the connector was broken.​Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction for replacing this connector? Is this a situation I should call a dedicated repair company for?​Also, regarding the overheating, I'm not sure it has anything to do with the wire. I believe it's related to the thermometers, which weren't able to be in the correct position due to an issue with the screw holes in the heating element. I have since been able to place the thermometers in the correct position for another test run once I fix the wire issue. via /r/DIY http://bit.ly/2QV36J0
