Parts for Maytag LDE8410ACL: 11 - Thermostats (Lde8410acl,Acw,Adl,Adw) Parts

The Cycling Thermostat is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This thermostat regulates the temperature inside the dryer by cycling the heating element on and off to maintain a consistent temperature.  .

Causes of a bad cycling thermostat can include wear and tear over time, electrical faults, or damage due to overheating. 

Symptoms of a bad Cycling Thermostat include:

• Clothes taking too long to dry
• The dryer not heating at all
• The dryer overheating
• Erratic or inconsistent drying temperatures

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

This Dryer Cycling Thermostat is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. It monitors internal temperatures and cycles power to the heating element accordingly. The thermostat ensures the drying air reaches and maintains the optimal heat level selected for fast, effective drying results.

Symptoms of a bad cycling thermostat include:

• The dryer not heating or heating inconsistently  
• Frequent trips of the circuit breaker
• Slower than normal drying times
• Burned clothes due to overheating

Causes of failure may be related to normal wear over time, dust buildup affecting sensor readings, or incorrect thermostat calibration. 

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This internal-bias thermostat regulates dryer drum temperature by cycling the heat on and off, helping maintain consistent drying performance and protect against overheating.

• Controls the cycling temperature of the heating circuit to prevent underheating or overheating
• Helps resolve symptoms like no heat, not enough heat, long dry times, or temperature swings
• A faulty thermostat may cause overheating that can trip the thermal fuse
• Located on the blower housing on many models

• Disconnect power and shut off gas (for gas dryers) before servicing
• Access the blower housing; note wire positions and transfer one at a time
• Mount the thermostat flush to the housing for proper sensing
• After installation, run a test cycle to verify proper heating

This multi-temperature cycling thermostat regulates the dryer's drum heat, switching the heater on and off to match the temperature setting you choose. It can help restore consistent drying if temperatures are erratic, loads run too hot, or cycles take too long.

• Maintains target temperature by opening and closing the heater circuit across multiple heat settings
• Provides calibrated temperature control for safe, efficient drying
• Failure may present as no heat or low heat, overheating, very long dry times, or inconsistent temperatures
• Intended for models with multiple temperature selections

• Unplug the dryer; shut off gas supply if applicable. Allow the appliance to cool before servicing.
• Take a photo of wire positions; move wires to the new thermostat one at a time to matching terminals and ensure snug connections.
• Remove/install mounting screws and seat the thermostat flat against the mating surface for proper sensing.
• After reassembly, clear lint passages and verify proper vent airflow.

• If there's no heat at all, also check the thermal fuse, high-limit thermostat, heating element (electric), or igniter/burner components (gas).
• Restricted venting can mimic thermostat issues and cause overheating or long dry times.
