Description

This heating element assembly supplies heat for tumble drying, restoring warm airflow so clothes dry efficiently. It replaces a failed or burned element to help return normal drying performance. What it does:

• Generates the hot air used to dry clothes by heating incoming air that circulates through the drum
• Commonly replaces a burned-out or open element that causes no heat or reduced heat
• Helps address symptoms like cool air from the dryer, extended dry times, or loads that never fully dry
• Works with the dryer's safety thermostats and fuses to regulate operating temperature

What's included:

• Heating element assembly (1)

Install notes:

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the dryer before starting any repair
• Allow all components to cool and wear gloves to avoid sharp edges
• Basic hand tools are typically required; follow the dryer's service manual for safe removal and reassembly
• If the dryer still has heating issues after replacement, inspect thermostats, thermal fuses, and wiring
