The Thermistor is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool gas dryers. It is a temperature-sensitive resistor that monitors the inlet gas temperature coming into the dryer. 

Causes can include the degradation of sensor components over time from repeated heating and cooling cycles. Moisture or debris intrusion could also impact functionality. 

Symptoms of a bad thermistor include:

• The dryer fails to progress through or complete cycles  
• Clothes remain damp even after extended drying
• Gas flow error codes are present
• Burned clothes smell is noticed from failed monitoring

This OEM Whirlpool replacement thermistor ensures accurate temperature readings for safe, optimized dryer operation. Its precise components deliver dependable sensing cycle after cycle. 

This part is also compatible with some GE, Crosley, Hotpoint, and select Kenmore electric and gas dryer models. Reliable and efficient drying performance results from an OEM thermistor replacement.

Dryer won't start or stops mid-cycle? A broken door strike prevents the latch from catching, so the control can't detect a closed door. Simple fix.

The Screw is an OEM component compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. This screw secures the rear panel onto the cabinet frame, ensuring a sturdy connection between housing components.  Proper installation is critical for the washer's structural integrity.

Causes of a bad screw include corrosion from repeated water exposure or stresses from years of use. Loosening can occur from vibrations weakening the threads over time. 

Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• Rear panel detaching from frame opening gaps
• Increased noise and vibrations from a compromised seal  
• Stress on other connections from improper mounting points
• Potential leak paths from openings near hoses or tub areas

This OEM Whirlpool replacement screw helps maintain a tight panel closure. It is compatible with additional brands like Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

• Houses and supports the blower wheel to direct airflow from the drum to the exhaust.
• Ensures proper airflow for consistent drying and venting.
• Can address symptoms like weak airflow, long dry times, or unusual blower noise when damaged or cracked.
• Works with the blower wheel and motor to maintain lint passage and exhaust flow.

• Disconnect power before inspecting or replacing the blower housing; follow manufacturer safety procedures.
• Access may require removing the dryer front or rear panel depending on model.
• Inspect the blower wheel and motor for damage or obstructions while replacing the housing.
