Dryer Fuse Or Sensor

This safety thermostat is a temperature-limiting switch that helps protect your refrigerator/freezer by opening the circuit if temperatures reach an unsafe level, preventing damage to components and reducing fire risk. What it does:

• Monitors internal temperature and interrupts power when the preset limit is exceeded
• Prevents overheating of heating elements or compressors in defrost and refrigeration circuits
• Helps stop continuous run or cycling caused by thermal faults
• May be used as part of the fridge/freezer safety/limit control system

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing the thermostat
• Handle carefully and avoid kinking or crushing any sensing element or capillary tube
• Verify function and wiring location against your model's service manual or wiring diagram

This thermal fuse/thermostat kit replaces the dryer overheat safety components to help restore proper thermal protection and prevent overheating. It's used where the dryer fails to heat correctly or stops running due to a safety trip. What it does:

• Serves as the dryer's overheat safety cut-off, interrupting power when temperatures exceed safe limits
• Replaces failed thermal fuse or high-limit thermostat that can cause no-heat or intermittent operation
• Helps stop overheating that could damage the heating element or drum components
• Works with the dryer's control system to prevent unsafe temperature rise

• Disconnect power before starting — this part is on the appliance's electrical/heating circuit
• Access typically requires removing the dryer back panel or control panel; follow OEM service instructions
• Test wiring and continuity before and after replacement; replace both parts if either shows damage

The Thermostat is an OEM part for GE dryers. It monitors air temperatures inside the dryer drum during cycles to ensure they remain within a designated safe range. As a safety component, the thermostat automatically cuts power if temperatures get too high, protecting dryer components from damage.

Causes of a bad thermostat can include normal wear and tear over time from repeated heat cycles. Mineral buildup interference or electrical faults may also cause premature malfunction.

Symptoms of a faulty thermostat include:  

• Inability to properly heat or maintain consistent air temperatures
• Unexpected fluctuations outside of set temperature points   
• Issues fully completing designated drying cycles  
• Potential overheating errors or safety trips

This genuine OEM GE replacement thermostat restores accurate temperature monitoring and controls. Compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore models as well, it improves performance reliability and safety once installed. Replacing a faulty component prevents ongoing operational issues.

A replacement cycling thermostat that helps regulate dryer temperature and prevent overheating by cycling the heater on and off as needed. Restores temperature control for safer, more consistent drying. What it does

• Opens and closes to cycle the heating element, maintaining proper operating temperature.
• Helps prevent excessive heat build-up that can cause clothes damage or dryer shutdowns.
• Common fix for dryers that run too hot, have uneven drying, or won't maintain heat.
• Works with the dryer's existing temperature control system to stabilize cycles.

• One cycling thermostat

• Disconnect power before accessing or replacing the thermostat to avoid shock.
• This part mounts inside the dryer cabinet near the heating assembly.
• Handle the thermostat carefully and reconnect wires to the correct terminals.
• Test the dryer on a short cycle after install and monitor temperature; if symptoms persist, check other heating components.

A high limit thermostat that stops heat when a dryer's temperature gets too hot, helping protect the heating system and cabinet from overheating. It's a direct-replacement thermostat used in many gas and electric dryer heater assemblies. What it does:

• Opens the heating circuit if temperatures exceed safe limits to prevent overheating.
• Helps protect the heating element, housing, and internal components from heat damage.
• A failed thermostat can cause no heat or intermittent heating in the dryer.
• Works with the dryer's safety controls to maintain normal operating temperature.

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before servicing; allow unit to cool completely.
• Located on or near the heater box or blower housing; follow your model's service manual for access.
• Replace with the exact part number to maintain original safety settings.

The Thermistor Assembly is an OEM part for GE dryers. As an integrated sub-assembly, it includes multiple temperature-monitoring thermistors to comprehensively sense heat throughout cycles. 

Located in air inlets and outlets, these thermistors provide feedback to regulating components like the control board and heating elements. This allows for consistent thermal operation by maintaining intended temperatures.

Causes of failure can be normal component wear over repeated heat cycles. Mineral buildup, electrical faults, or accidental mishandling may also prematurely impact functioning.

Symptoms of a faulty thermistor assembly include: 

• Inability to properly heat or maintain consistent air temperatures
• Unexpected fluctuations outside of set points
• Issues fully completing designated drying cycles
• Potential safety trips from inaccurate temperature readings

This genuine GE replacement ensures precise thermal regulation is fully restored. Compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore dryer models as well, safety and performance reliability are improved.

High limit thermostat, Canadian models only.

This thermostat is a direct-replacement oven temperature control that helps the oven maintain the set cooking temperature for consistent bake and roast results. It restores proper temperature sensing when the original fails. What it does:

• Senses oven cavity temperature and signals the heating element or gas valve to cycle on/off
• Helps correct issues like oven running too hot, too cool, or baking unevenly
• Works as the temperature-regulating sensor used by the oven control system
• Matches OEM function for reliable temperature control and repeatable cooking results

• One thermostat as shown

This high-limit thermostat is a safety temperature limiter that helps prevent overheating in electric dryers by cutting power to the heating circuit if temperatures get too high. It's a direct-replacement style part used where the dryer needs a reliable over-temp cutoff. What it does:

• Monitors dryer heater temperature and opens the circuit if the unit overheats
• Stops the heating element from running when unsafe temperatures are detected
• Helps protect internal components and reduce fire risk from sustained over-temp conditions
• Can be a factor when the dryer won't heat or the heater cycles off prematurely

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Located on or near the heater assembly; access usually requires removing the dryer cabinet or rear panel
• Handle terminals and wiring carefully; note connector positions before removal
• Test continuity with a multimeter to confirm failure before replacing

A 15 amp cartridge fuse that protects appliance electrical circuits from overcurrent, helping prevent damage to controls and components. Fits into inline fuse holders or boards where that specific fuse rating is required. What it does

• Interrupts circuit power when current exceeds 15 amps to protect wiring and electronics
