Parts for United UCF120H: Unit Compartment / System Parts

This overload protector is a thermal motor protector that cuts power if the dryer motor overheats, helping prevent motor damage and unsafe operation. Replace a failed unit to restore the motor's built-in overheating protection. What it does:

• Senses excessive motor temperature and interrupts motor power to prevent damage.
• Common symptom: dryer may not start or the motor hums but won't turn when the overload has failed.
• Helps stop repeated motor overheating and can prevent associated electrical faults.
• Works as the motor's thermal safety device; must be replaced if open or damaged.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Transfer wiring and mounting exactly as removed; do not bypass the protector.
• Inspect motor and blower for obstructions or causes of overheating before reassembly.
