This finished burner funnel directs gas and air into the burner for correct flame shape and ignition. It replaces a damaged or corroded funnel to help restore even heating and reliable burner performance. What it does:

• Channels gas and air into the burner for proper mixing and flame distribution
• Helps maintain even flame across the burner for consistent cooking heat
• Can reduce ignition delays or uneven flames caused by a damaged funnel
• Works with the burner assembly; not a standalone gas valve or igniter

• Turn off gas supply and electricity to the appliance before servicing
• Replace only with the correct funnel for your burner; follow OEM diagram for orientation
• Tighten fittings by hand-first, then snug—do not overtighten; inspect for leaks after reassembly

The Flame Sensor is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas dryers. This component plays a critical safety role by monitoring the presence of the gas burner flame during the drying cycle.

Causes of needing to replace the flame sensor can include normal wear and tear over extended use, exposure to high temperatures or corrosion, or physical damage to the sensor itself.

Symptoms that may indicate a faulty flame sensor include:

• The dryer not heating or producing heat properly
• Error codes related to the gas system or ignition failure
• The dryer shutting off unexpectedly during cycles

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

The High Limit Thermostat is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. This safety device monitors internal dryer temperatures. The high-limit thermostat automatically interrupts power if excessive heat builds up inside the dryer drum and ventilation area. 

Causes of a bad high-limit thermostat typically include wear over many heat cycles. Without this critical safeguard functioning reliably, overheating dangers increase.

Symptoms of a bad high-limit thermostat include:

• Dryer failing to heat or stop heating unexpectedly
• Repeated blowing of fuses or breaker trips  
• Smoky odors emitted from the dryer vent

This OEM Whirlpool replacement is also compatible with some Maytag, Roper, and select Kenmore dryer models as well. 

The Thermal Cut-Off is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. It serves as a crucial safety component, automatically disconnecting power to the dryer's heating element if temperatures rise too high. This protects against overheating that could potentially cause a fire. 

Symptoms of a bad thermal cut-off can include:

• dryer failing to heat during cycles
• abnormal noises or smells coming from the dryer
• error codes related to temperature
• loose/damaged wires near the heating element

Causes of failure typically involve repeated exposure to excessive heat over long periods of use, though sometimes surges or physical damage can also trigger problems. 

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

This screw is used to secure the handle end cap to the center of the door. The screw size measures 8-18 x 1/2 inches.
