• Test the dryer on a short cycle after install and monitor temperature; if symptoms persist, check other heating components.

The Cycling Thermostat is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It regulates and monitors the temperature inside the dryer during the drying cycle. It ensures that the dryer doesn't overheat and prevents potential damage to clothes or the dryer itself.

Causes of a faulty cycling thermostat can include wear and tear over time, electrical issues, or sensor malfunction.

Symptoms of a bad cycling thermostat may include:

• Clothes taking longer than usual to dry

The Blower Wheel Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers, designed to circulate air through the drum and out the vent. This part is responsible for the movement of hot air across the clothes to evaporate moisture so that clothes dry evenly and quickly.  

Causes of a bad Blower Wheel Assembly can include debris buildup leading to wear and tear on the fins or a damaged hub disconnecting the wheel from the motor shaft. 

Symptoms of a bad Blower Wheel Assembly include:

• Unusual noises when the dryer is running.
• Clothes taking longer to dry or not drying fully.
• The dryer overheating due to restricted airflow.
• A noticeable decrease in the exhaust.

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 blower seal sits between blower housing components to prevent air leaks, helping direct all exhaust air through the drum and vent. Replacing a worn seal can help restore proper airflow and drying performance. What it does:

• Forms an airtight gasket between the blower housing and its cover/duct
• Helps maintain correct airflow and temperature balance through the drum and exhaust
• Reduces lint and dust escaping into the cabinet
• Common failure symptoms: longer dry times, weak vent airflow, whistling or rattling from air leaks

• 1 blower seal

• Disconnect power and, for gas dryers, shut off gas before servicing
• Access the blower housing; remove the old seal and clean mating surfaces of lint and residue
• Position the new seal flat and even; reassemble without pinching or deforming the gasket
• After reassembly, verify strong exhaust airflow and check for leaks

The Tumbler Bearing Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. It includes multiple replacement glides that support the movement of the wash basket or tub. As it rotates during the wash cycle, the tub experiences friction that the bearings help manage.  For rear drum support rollers, order 12001541. Please note that repair requires two kits.

Symptoms of bad bearings include:

• Excessive noise or vibrations emanating from the tub area
• Difficulty rotating or spinning the tub by hand  
• Visible wear on the bearings
• Premature breakdown of other components due to increased stress

Causes of bearing failure can be normal wear over time from the consistent rotational motion. Using the washer with an unbalanced load can accelerate bearing deterioration.

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