The Foot is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch dryers. It securely elevates the appliance above the floor for ventilation purposes. Rigid plastic construction supports weight distribution evenly during cycles.

Causes of a bad foot can involve normal wear from long-term appliance positioning. Exposure to moisture or impacts posing cracking and weakening risks over time necessitate replacement.

Causes of a bad foot include:

• Dryer is unstable and rocks or sways more than usual
• Scratches or damage to flooring surfaces it contacts
• Uneven drying performance from improper elevation

Symptoms of a bad foot include collapsed or unstable base structure inhibiting dependable operation. Timely replacement ensures correct height positioning.

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dryers. Replace to properly elevate your unit and maximize airflow circulation.
 

This high-limit thermostat is the overheat safety switch for the heating circuit. It opens when excessive temperature is detected to cut power to the heater, protecting the appliance and restoring normal heating when replaced.

• Monitors temperature at the heater and opens the circuit if it overheats
• Helps prevent damage from excessive heat and potential safety hazards
• A failed-open thermostat may cause no heat, poor drying, or unusually long cycles
• Frequent tripping may point to underlying circulation or control issues that should be checked

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance; allow it to cool completely before service
• Access location per model; typically mounted on or near the heater or heater housing
• Note wire positions and transfer leads one at a time; secure using existing mounting hardware
• After installation, run a test cycle to confirm proper heating

Color: white. Measures about 10-1/2 inches wide by 13-1/2 inches deep.

Replace a worn or missing control button with this push button cap. It fits over the control panel's switch actuator to restore a clean look and reliable button feel when selecting settings.

• Provides the surface you press to actuate the underlying control switch
• Helps align and protect the switch from dust and everyday wear
• Restores proper button travel and tactile feedback
• Common symptoms: missing or cracked cap, button feels loose or wobbly, sticks or doesn't respond consistently

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Gently pry off the old cap from the front without marring the panel
• Align the new cap with the switch stem/actuator and press until fully seated
• Test button movement and operation before completing reassembly

The Blower Belt is an OEM part for Bosch dryers. This belt efficiently transmits rotation from the motor to the blower fan, circulating heated air through the dryer drum.

Causes of a bad blower belt can include drying and cracking from heat exposure over many cycles.

Symptoms of a bad blower belt include:

• The blower fan not spinning or rotating slower than usual
• Longer dry times or an inability to fully dry clothes
• An intermittent squealing or squeaking noise from the belt

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

This high-temperature 220V, 15-watt oven light bulb restores bright interior lighting so you can monitor cooking progress without opening the door. It's built for sustained heat and replaces a burned-out or flickering lamp.

• Illuminates the oven cavity during baking, broiling, and cleaning cycles
• High-temperature design for continuous heat exposure
• Common failure symptoms: no light when switched on, dim or intermittent illumination, blackened glass, or a broken filament

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely
• Remove the light lens/cover; unthread and remove the old bulb
• Thread in the new bulb of the same voltage and wattage; do not overtighten
• Reinstall the cover, restore power, and test the light

This Vent Adapter is an OEM part for Bosch Dryers. It plays a role in connecting the dryer exhaust to the vent hose, ensuring efficient airflow and proper ventilation. Over time, wear and tear or improper installation can lead to issues with this component.

What Causes a Bad Vent Adapter: 
Continuous use or improper fitting can cause the vent adapter to degrade or become loose. Exposure to heat and moisture from the dryer can also contribute to its deterioration.

Symptoms of a Bad Vent Adapter:

• Poor dryer performance
• Difficulty in connecting the vent hose
• Air leaks around the vent connection

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

This replacement drum belt wraps around the dryer drum and motor pulley to rotate the drum for normal drying. Replaces worn or broken belts to restore tumbling and help your dryer move loads evenly. What it does:

• Transfers motor power to the drum so clothing tumbles during the drying cycle
• Commonly used when the drum slips, won't turn, or makes a rubbing/squealing noise
• Helps maintain proper drum alignment and smooth rotation when in good condition

• Disconnect power before any service; follow the dryer's service manual for safe access
• Inspect idler pulley and motor shaft for wear when replacing the belt
• Re-tension and route the belt per the OEM diagram to avoid mis-tracking

A 15 amp cartridge fuse that protects appliance electrical circuits from overcurrent, helping prevent damage to controls and components. Fits into inline fuse holders or boards where that specific fuse rating is required. What it does

• Interrupts circuit power when current exceeds 15 amps to protect wiring and electronics
• Commonly linked to symptoms like no power to controls, unresponsive display, or appliances that won't start
• Designed to be replaced when visibly blown or when continuity test fails
• Works as the exact rated safety fuse specified for compatible appliances

• One 15 amp cartridge fuse

• Disconnect all power to the appliance before accessing or replacing the fuse
• Replace with the identical fuse type and 15 amp rating only; do not substitute different ratings
• Handle carefully and mount fully seated in its holder or on the PCB as designed
• If the new fuse fails again immediately, stop — repeated failures indicate underlying electrical faults

This part is a drive pulley with bearings, also known as a dryer roller. The purpose of this component is to allow the dryer to tumble properly by providing support to the drum cylinder.
