Description

This temperature switch mounts in the dryer control panel and lets you select the desired heat level. Replacing a failed switch restores accurate temperature selection so the dryer responds properly to the setting you choose.

• Selects the heat level for drying cycles
• Routes power through the appropriate heating circuit based on your selection
• Failure symptoms include no change in temperature when turning the knob, being stuck on one heat level, intermittent heat, or a loose/stripped switch shaft
• An internal short or open may contribute to a no-heat condition while the drum still runs

Includes: 1 temperature selector switch Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing; for gas dryers, also shut off the gas supply
• Remove the control knob and open the control console/back cover to access the switch
• Note wire positions; transfer connectors to the new switch one at a time to avoid miswiring
• Mount the new switch securely, reassemble the console, reinstall the knob, and test heat selection
