The Seal is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This specific seal is designed to fit around the blower housing, ensuring a tight seal that prevents air leaks within the dryer. The blower housing is a critical component of the dryer's air circulation system, which moves air through the drum to dry clothes efficiently. 

Causes of damage to the Seal can include wear and tear from regular use, excessive heat degrading the material over time, or improper maintenance practices that can cause physical damage to the seal.

Symptoms of a bad Seal include:

• Longer drying times than usual
• Excessive heat buildup in the dryer
• Unusual noises from the dryer, such as rattling or buzzing

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

The Thermal Fuse is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It is a critical safety component designed to protect the dryer from overheating by blowing and cutting off power if the temperature exceeds safe limits. This disposable, one-time fuse is essential for preventing potential fire hazards and ensuring the appliance operates within safe temperatures.

Symptoms of a bad Thermal Fuse include:

• The dryer not starting or suddenly stopping during a cycle
• No heat being produced while the dryer is running
• Unexplained cessation of all dryer functions

Causes of a bad thermal fuse can stem from restricted airflow due to lint buildup, a malfunctioning heating element that causes excessive temperatures, or other electrical issues within the dryer.

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

The Blower Wheel is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This component is crucial for the proper circulation of hot air within the dryer drum, ensuring efficient drying of clothes by directing airflow through the drum and out the exhaust.

Common causes of a bad blower wheel include accumulated lint and debris obstructing the wheel, physical damage from foreign objects, or general wear from prolonged use. A faulty blower wheel can significantly reduce drying efficiency and may cause the dryer to overheat.

Symptoms of a bad blower wheel include:

• Longer drying times for clothes
• Unusual noises during the drying cycle
• Overheating of the dryer
• Poor airflow from the dryer vent

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

Symptoms of a failing lint screen housing foam seal include:

• Increased lint buildup inside the dryer beyond the lint screen
• Longer drying times due to inefficient air circulation
• Excessive heat and humidity within the dryer

Causes of foam seal deterioration typically involve normal wear and tear, exposure to high heat which can degrade the material, or improper maintenance that can tear or dislodge the foam.
