Wtv74100 Parts

A temperature limiter (thermal cutoff) that helps protect heating circuits by opening when temperatures exceed safe limits, preventing overheating and potential damage to the appliance. What it does:

• Interrupts power to the heating element or circuit when internal temperature gets too high
• Prevents continued heating that can cause damage or unsafe conditions
• Commonly linked to symptoms like no heat, intermittent heating, or a unit that shuts off during a cycle
• Acts as a safety backup to primary thermostats and controls

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Replace only with the exact part number to maintain OEM safety protection
• Handle the part carefully; avoid bending or damaging terminals and mounting features

This small mounting spacer positions and secures internal components, keeping proper clearance and preventing rubbing or misalignment. It helps maintain appliance performance by holding parts at the correct distance during operation. What it does:

• Creates a consistent gap between adjacent parts to prevent contact and wear
• Helps align components for smooth operation and reduced vibration
• Stabilizes assemblies to reduce noise and movement
• Protects wiring and housings by maintaining proper clearance

• Disconnect power and/or water supply before servicing the appliance
• Handle small parts carefully; keep track of fasteners and orientation for reassembly
• Replace only with the identical spacer to maintain correct fit and function

This sealing ring provides a tight, low-profile seal to help prevent water or air leaks and keep the appliance operating as designed. It restores the original sealing surface for reliable performance. What it does

• Forms a watertight/airtight barrier at the mating surface to help stop leaks and drips.
• Helps maintain correct pressure and airflow paths inside the appliance.
• Reduces risk of moisture damage to cabinet or components near the seal.
• Common symptom: visible leaking, pooling, or persistent moisture around the joint.

• Inspect mating surfaces for damage, dirt, or residue and clean before installing the seal.
• Replace only with the matching part number to ensure a proper fit and function.
• Avoid stretching, nicking, or twisting the seal during installation; seat it evenly.
• Disconnect power and water and follow manufacturer safety instructions before service.
