Parts for Speed Queen SDEX07WF1500: Heater Parts

The Thermostat is an OEM part for SpeedQueen dryers. The thermostat monitors and regulates the temperature inside the dryer drum during operation. It is responsible for sensing the dryer heat and activating the heating element at the selected temperature setting.

Causes of a bad thermostat can include overheating over time, fluctuations in electrical current that may damage components, or impact damage.

Symptoms of a bad thermostat include:

• The dryer not heating up or heating unevenly
• Constantly shutting off due to overheating errors
• Inability to select desired temperature settings
• Premature ending of dry cycles

This electric heater restores the heat your machine needs to reach and maintain proper operating temperature. Replacing an open or weak element brings back consistent heating so cycles complete as intended. What it does:

• Converts electrical power into heat within the appliance's heating circuit
• Works with thermostats and controls to maintain target temperature
• Common symptoms: no heat or lower-than-expected temperatures
• Extended cycle times or inability to reach set temperatures

• 1 heater element

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the unit to cool completely before service
• Note wire positions; move connectors one at a time and avoid stressing the coil/insulators
• Inspect related thermostats, cutoffs, wiring, and airflow/circulation issues to prevent repeat failures
• The part matches your model's required voltage rating (208V) before restoring power
