Customer Questions and Answers for Rotary Temperature Selector Switch (Single) by Whirlpool

This rotary temperature selector switch lets you choose drying temperature settings, restoring user control over cycles and heat selection. It replaces a worn or non-responsive dryer temperature control to help the dryer operate as intended. What it does:

• Selects the dryer temperature setting for timed and automatic drying cycles
• Restores heat-control when a worn or stuck selector prevents setting temperature
• Addresses symptoms such as temperature not changing, selector knob that won't turn, or inconsistent drying results
• Works with the dryer's control circuitry to send the chosen temp signal to the heater/thermostat system

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid electric shock
• Confirm electrical connections and knob alignment before reassembly
• Handle with care to avoid damaging terminals or the control panel
