This genuine dryer heater assembly heats the air inside the dryer so clothes dry efficiently. It replaces a failed heating element to restore normal drying performance and reduce extended drying cycles. What it does:
- Generates the heat required for the dryer to remove moisture from laundry.
- Restores normal drying times when a worn or broken element causes little or no heat.
- Works with the dryer's thermal controls to maintain safe operating temperatures.
- Can stop dryer trips or error conditions caused by an open or shorted element.
What's included:
- One dryer heater assembly (heating element)
Install notes:
- Disconnect electrical power to the dryer before beginning any work.
- Handle the element carefully — avoid bending or contacting the coil with sharp tools.
- Inspect and, if necessary, test the thermal fuse, thermostats, and wiring; replace any failed safety components.
