Customer Questions and Answers for Heater Assembly by Whirlpool

The Heater Assembly Complete is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers, engineered to generate and maintain the heat necessary for drying clothes efficiently and uniformly. This assembly ensures that your dryer can reach and regulate the desired temperatures without overheating. 

Causes of a bad Heater Assembly can stem from normal wear and tear, overloading of the dryer, insufficient maintenance leading to buildup and blockages, or electrical surges that damage the heating components. 

Symptoms of a bad Heater Assembly Complete include:

• Clothes taking longer to dry or not drying at all
• The dryer not heating up despite running
• Overheating of the dryer, which could trip safety switches or fuses
• Unusual noises or smells indicating potential electrical issues or burning

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
