Customer Questions and Answers for Outlet Thermal Fuse by Frigidaire

4.89 (64)
By: Frigidaire
Part Number: OEM16935747
Manufacturer Part Number: 134711401

The Outlet Thermal Fuse is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It acts as a safety device that protects the dryer from overheating by cutting off the power if the temperature exceeds a safe level. This ensures the dryer operates safely and helps prevent potential fire hazards.

Causes of a bad thermal fuse can include lint buildup blocking airflow, overloading the dryer, or mechanical failures in the heating element. These issues can cause the dryer to overheat, leading to the fuse blowing as a protective measure.

Symptoms of a bad outlet thermal fuse include:

  • The dryer not starting
  • The dryer running but not heating
  • Sudden stopping during a cycle
  • No power to the dryer

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

Answer

SuziQ, with a meter, it would be recommended that the terminal block where the dryer power cord connects to the dryer is tested for 240VAC from the red wire to the black wire, and 120VAC from the red wire to the white wire and black wire to the white wire. If there is proper voltage, the next step would be to test the main control 809160802 for 120VAC from the wire at connection J2 pin 4 to the wire at connection J2 pin 5. If there is 120VAC, the wires going to the user interface 137035290 would need to be inspected for any loose connections or pinched/broken wires. If these all check good, then it would be likely that the main control has failed.
