Parts for Maytag MEW9530DS01: 02 - Control Panel Parts

The Thermal Fuse is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It acts as a safety device that prevents the oven from overheating. When the oven reaches an unsafe temperature, the thermal fuse cuts off power to the heating elements, ensuring the appliance does not overheat and cause potential damage or fire hazards.

Causes of a bad thermal fuse can include frequent overheating, electrical issues, or normal wear and tear over time. These factors can lead to the fuse blowing or becoming ineffective, compromising the safety and functionality of the oven.

Symptoms of a bad Thermal Fuse include:

• The oven not heating up
• The oven shutting off unexpectedly
• No power to the oven's heating elements
• Error codes related to overheating or temperature control

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