Description

This heater sub-assembly replaces the dryer heating element assembly to restore normal drying performance by generating the hot air needed for effective clothes drying. Designed to match the original equipment fit and function. What it does:

• Heats incoming air so the dryer can remove moisture from clothes
• Helps return normal drying times when the dryer is not producing heat or takes multiple cycles to dry
• Works with the dryer's airflow and thermostatic controls to maintain operating temperature
• Reduces risk of repeated cycles caused by insufficient heating

What's included:

• One heater sub-assembly as shown

Install notes:

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off circuit breaker) before starting any repair
• Allow the appliance to cool completely and work in a well-lit area
• Handle heating element carefully to avoid bending or damaging the assembly
