Bob for Model Number DV328AEW/XAA My dryer lost heat so I ordered the heater assembly for it. The sticker on the door says 3 WIRE, so I ordered accordingly. But when I opened it up, it turned out to be 2 WIRE!! Can I use a 3 WIRE assembly on a 2 WIRE setup? It seems the 3 WIRE assembly simply has two coils running on parallel, with a common neutral. Can I just split the hot wire in my 2 WIRE setup to feed the two coils in the 3 WIRE assembly?
Answer Bob, it would be recommended that the correct heater assembly is used with the appliance as there is an operation difference, and using the incorrect one will leave an open terminal with live voltage being applied to it. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Sunday, May 22, 2022
