How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP6008309 / WP3390719 Thermal Fuse (Disposable, One Time Fuse)

Came across your web site after I Googled my problem. Noticed you had a video on replacing a heating fuse on my Wirlpool elite Dryer. I ordered the part and it came within 2 days watched the video again and the dryer was up and running in 20 minutes. Your Company is Great!! very easy to order, you sent updates on my order and the how to videos are amazing. Thank You!! I spent $20.00 on the part, my estimate from an appliance repair was over $200.00 . 

Tested sensors/fuse and found thermal fuse did not have continuity. Replaced thermal fuse. 

Ordered a new one and installed it and the drier works again. 

Washing machine should have been an easy fix that I had done before but ran into problems with the upper bearing and the bearing diameter on the shaft (a no go situation). By the time I was able to get the bearing seated I had damaged the new bearing. Much to my surprise Cierra in customer service sent me out a new bearing kit. I was then able to get the washer up and running with the new bearing kit and motor stator replacement. The dryer was a matter of replacing all of the electrical components inside of the cabinet along with the moisture sensors in the in the lint housing. The drum rollers and felt drum seals were changed as well. Now all dry times are within minutes of what is on the timer without any reruns. Repair Videos are a Great Repair Tool very well done.

By ordering parts from AppliancePartsPros we were able to get our dryer fixed. We had ordered one part from Sears and it literally took 5 weeks to get it. With AppliancePartsPros we had the Parts in just a few short days!! Highly recommend AppliancePartsPros!!! 

I replaced all the fuses and belt including heater and then cleaned the exhaust pipe it's working perfect. 

Ordered the parts, and replaced them. 

Bought these 5 parts, installed and it works perfectly. I bought all 5 so I wasn't wasting time. I could've maybe narrowed it down to the culprit, but I just got all 5 since it's so old. Fast delivery quality parts. Happy wife! 

1- I checked that proper 240VAC was going to the dryer. 2- I read the top three solutions to solving this from the Appliance Parts Pro’s website. 3- I bought the parts listed by them - door switch, thermal fuse and belt. 4- I followed their videos - REMOVED POWER then started taking the dryer apart. 5- Door switch was OK. 6- Vacuumed out lint in the dryer from the front and SUCESS - I saw the broken belt hanging down the drum. It was smaller than expected. 7- Continued to disassemble the dryer - due to age of the dryer, unlocking the electrical connection plugs/receptacle took a little muscle even after I unlocked them with a small screwdriver per the videos. 8- Followed directions to put the new belt on the drum. Paid very close attention to getting the belt around the idler pulley. 9- Carefully competed the re-assembly as well as vacuuming out the lint inside. 10- Plugged in dryer and immediately got the dryer working again. The site has good videos to follow and for a few dollars extra, I have a spare belt, door switch and thermal fuse. 

Researched part in google and seen on appliancepartspros.com and it was easy to find that part and watch video and love it.
