Dryer Fuse Or Sensor

This multi-temperature cycling thermostat regulates the dryer's drum heat, switching the heater on and off to match the temperature setting you choose. It can help restore consistent drying if temperatures are erratic, loads run too hot, or cycles take too long.

• Maintains target temperature by opening and closing the heater circuit across multiple heat settings
• Provides calibrated temperature control for safe, efficient drying
• Failure may present as no heat or low heat, overheating, very long dry times, or inconsistent temperatures
• Intended for models with multiple temperature selections

• Unplug the dryer; shut off gas supply if applicable. Allow the appliance to cool before servicing.
• Take a photo of wire positions; move wires to the new thermostat one at a time to matching terminals and ensure snug connections.
• Remove/install mounting screws and seat the thermostat flat against the mating surface for proper sensing.
• After reassembly, clear lint passages and verify proper vent airflow.

• If there's no heat at all, also check the thermal fuse, high-limit thermostat, heating element (electric), or igniter/burner components (gas).
• Restricted venting can mimic thermostat issues and cause overheating or long dry times.

The Pressure Sensor is an OEM replacement part for LG dryers. This sensor monitors the airflow or pressure within the dryer, helping to regulate drying cycles and ensure efficient operation. By detecting blockages or changes in airflow, it plays a critical role in maintaining proper performance and preventing overheating.

Over time, the pressure sensor can fail due to wear, electrical issues, or buildup of lint and debris. Damage to the sensor or its connections can cause the dryer to operate inefficiently or stop functioning altogether.

Symptoms of a bad pressure sensor include:

• Dryer not heating properly
• Extended drying times
• Error codes related to airflow or pressure
• Dryer shutting off unexpectedly during cycles

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore dryers.

This Thermostat is an OEM part for GE dryers. As a critical component in regulating the dryer's temperature, this thermostat ensures that the machine operates within a safe and efficient heat range. It monitors and controls the heat level, preventing the dryer from overheating while maintaining optimal drying conditions.

The need to replace the thermostat can arise from a variety of issues, including electrical problems, wear and tear, or a malfunction due to overheating. A failing thermostat can significantly impact the dryer's performance and safety.

Symptoms of a faulty Thermostat include:

• The dryer not heating up properly or overheating.
• Clothes taking longer than usual to dry.
• The dryer shuts off prematurely or not starting.
• Inconsistent heating leads to unevenly dried clothes.
• Potential safety hazards if the dryer overheats.

This GE OEM replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
 

The Thermostat is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. The thermostat monitors the air temperature in the dryer drum and signals to the control system when to activate or deactivate heating elements.

Causes of a failing thermostat can include normal wear and tear over time. As the thermostat undergoes frequent temperature fluctuations with each use, components may gradually degrade. Physical damage from accidental impact is another potential cause.

Symptoms of a bad thermostat include:

• Inability to increase air temperature above a certain point
• Overheating errors
• Slow or incomplete drying even on high heat settings
• Socks ending up damp after an entire cycle

This is a genuine Whirlpool OEM replacement this part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air and some Kenmore models.

The Thermal Cutoff is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. This cutoff component plays a crucial role in starting and stopping power to the dryer during operation. It does so through a sensitive thermal limiter that responds to temperature changes inside the dryer drum. 

Causes of a bad cutoff can include damage or wear to the thermal limiter over time, loosening of internal wiring connections, or issues with the cutoff's electronic components. 

Symptoms of a bad thermal cutoff include: 

• The dryer not turning on at all 
• The dryer fails to turn off after a full cycle
• Fluctuations in heat output during drying
• Buzzing or clicking noises coming from the cutoff area

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

This sensor harness connects the dryer's moisture sensor bars to the main wiring, helping the control or timer read moisture levels so Auto Dry cycles can advance and deliver consistent, reliable drying performance.

• Provides the electrical path between the moisture sensor bars and the control/timer
• Enables the dryer to sense wet fabrics and adjust or advance Auto Dry cycles
• A damaged or open harness can cause Auto Dry to not advance, run too long, or stop early
• Contribute to inconsistent dry times or a "Sensing" indicator that behaves abnormally

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the sensor bars at the front bulkhead; note wire routing and clip locations
• Transfer routing/clips from the old harness; connect to both sensor bars and the main harness plug, ensuring snug terminals and clear wire paths
• Restore power and run an Auto Dry test; inspect/clean the sensor bars and check harness continuity
