If you can't get the part from the company [use the contact information at https://www.contacthelp.com/general%20electric/customer-service], you may be able to obtain the part number. Then, even without the part number,
  1. Try https://encompass.com/ or https://www.diyspareparts.com/.
  2. Try the other online sources linked at https://ishort.ink/8cu4.
  3. Contact local parts dealers and used appliance dealers, who might be able to supply or maybe fix the part
  4. Use a search engine like Google's or Bing
  5. Try http://www.searchtempest.com/, which displays global listings from eBay, Craigslist, and other sources*
  6. Take the part you have to an appliance technician, who might possibly be able to fix or replace the part

    *(For option 5, you may want to use a free tracking program like https://www.followthatpage.com/ to save you from having to repeat your search over time.)
