This thermal fuse is a one-time safety cutoff that stops heat when temperatures rise above safe limits, protecting the appliance from overheating. Replace a blown fuse to restore proper thermal protection and heating control. What it does:

• Opens the circuit to the heating element when overheating is detected to prevent unsafe temperatures.
• Common symptom: dryer runs but produces little or no heat.
• Can cause dryers to stop heating even though the motor and controls seem to work.
• Helps prevent thermal damage or fire by cutting power to the heater when needed.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the heating assembly.
• Replace with the exact OEM part; match terminals and mounting location.

This part is a cooktop control board. This part sends power to the induction coils. Before the induction power control board goes completely out, the user may notice some inconsistencies in the operation of the cooktop. For example, the burners may not work correctly or some buttons may stop working. It's also possible that the display is not working correctly. When all of these features are no longer working, then the part is definitely bad. The cooktop should be unplugged from its outlet prior to replacing this part. The person replacing the part may wish to wear work gloves to protect hands during this procedure. This specific induction power control board is compatible with cooktops that are manufactured by Whirlpool, KitchenAid, and Maytag. This part is sold individually and is sourced straight from the manufacturer. It's a high-quality part made from durable materials.
