E Ring

4.7 (47)

By: Whirlpool

Part Number: WP354987

The Idler Shaft Retaining Ring is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. Also called an "E" ring, it is a sealing gasket positioned between the front and rear housing omponents. Maintaining an airtight seal prevents gas leakage and promotes efficient drying performance.

Causes of a bad retaining ring commonly involve compression loss of the rubber gasket material over many years of heating cycles. Exposure to petroleum-based cleaners may prematurely deteriorate the seal as well.

Symptoms of a failed 'E' ring include:

Gas leaks emitting foul odors around seams or vents
Reduced heat conductivity hampering dryer functioning
Moisture accumulation shortens fabric lifespan
Drafts compromising indoor air quality and energy bills

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

When I took it apart, the vent had very little lint in the lower elbow exiting the back of the dryer but the blower wheel was loose on the shaft and was missing the clamp. I cleaned out the vent and put a hose clamp on the blower wheel to tighten it to the shaft and tried it again. The noise was... Read more

Dryer Cycling Thermostat (Multi-Temp)

5.0 (4)

By: Whirlpool

Part Number: WP307249

This multi-temperature cycling thermostat regulates the dryer's drum heat, switching the heater on and off to match the temperature setting you choose. It can help restore consistent drying if temperatures are erratic, loads run too hot, or cycles take too long.

Maintains target temperature by opening and closing the heater circuit across multiple heat settings
Provides calibrated temperature control for safe, efficient drying
Failure may present as no heat or low heat, overheating, very long dry times, or inconsistent temperatures
Intended for models with multiple temperature selections

What's included: 1 cycling thermostat Install notes:

Unplug the dryer; shut off gas supply if applicable. Allow the appliance to cool before servicing.
Take a photo of wire positions; move wires to the new thermostat one at a time to matching terminals and ensure snug connections.
Remove/install mounting screws and seat the thermostat flat against the mating surface for proper sensing.
After reassembly, clear lint passages and verify proper vent airflow.

Diagnostic tips:

If there's no heat at all, also check the thermal fuse, high-limit thermostat, heating element (electric), or igniter/burner components (gas).
Restricted venting can mimic thermostat issues and cause overheating or long dry times.

Drive Motor

4.9 (7)

By: Whirlpool

Part Number: WP33002795

This genuine replacement part is a drive motor for dryers. The drive motor is the main engine that allows the dryer drum to rotate. If the drum is no longer spinning properly, the drive motor might need to be replaced. Luckily this is a relatively simple process.To replace the drive motor, begin by unplugging the dryer. Once it is powered off, uninstall the front panel of the dryer by removing the screws that attach it. After that, lift the top panel above the drum so that it is vertical and no longer covering the drum. Then disconnect the wires from the moisture sensors with a screwdriver by pressing down on the locking tab. Once the wires have been removed, lift the drum out from the dryer to gain access to the drive motor. Using a socket wrench, remove the blower wheel from the motor assembly. Then remove the old drive motor by unthreading the mounting screws that attach it. Install the new drive motor and reassemble the dryer. This OEM replacement part is sold individually and is compatible with Whirlpools, Maytag, Kitchenaid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Sears/Kenmore brand dryers.
