This blower wheel mounts on the drive motor and pushes air through the dryer drum and out the exhaust. Replacing a worn wheel restores proper airflow for consistent drying and helps prevent overheating and nuisance shutdowns. What it does:

• Moves air across the heater, through the drum, and out the vent to remove moisture
• Helps maintain proper airflow and temperature inside the dryer
• Common failure symptoms: reduced or no airflow at the exterior vent, longer dry times, unusual scraping/thumping or vibration from the blower area, or overheating/shutoff
• Cracked fins or a stripped hub can cause the wheel to slip on the motor shaft

• 1 blower wheel

• Disconnect power and turn off gas supply before servicing
• Access the blower housing per your model's service instructions; remove the retaining hardware and replace the wheel in the same orientation
• Clean lint from the blower housing and vent path; inspect the motor shaft and blower seal for wear
• Reassemble and verify the wheel spins freely without rubbing; check airflow at the exterior vent

The Infinite Switch Knob is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool cooktops. Measuring an inch and a half in diameter this knob has an orange indicator line and corresponding orange lettering marking the "off" position. White numbering indicates various temperature levels, for clear and precise adjustments to the surface burner settings.

Over time, wear and tear from frequent use, excessive force when turning, or accidental damage can cause the knob to crack, loosen, or lose its grip. These issues may result in poor control over the surface burner's heat settings, leading to inefficient cooking.

Symptoms of a faulty Infinite Switch Knob include:

• Difficulty adjusting the temperature settings
• Knob slipping, turning loosely, or misaligned
• Cracks, broken, or missing components

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