Description

This thermal cutoff protects the appliance from overheating by cutting power when temperatures exceed safe limits. It helps stop unsafe operation and prevents heat-related damage. What it does:

• Opens the circuit when internal temps get too high to prevent overheating
• Commonly linked to no-heat or intermittent-heat problems in heating systems
• Can trip if airflow is restricted or if the heating element/thermostats fail
• Detectable with a continuity test when cold

What's included:

• One Cutoff-TML thermal cutoff device

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before accessing or replacing the part
• Replace with the exact part number; do not bypass safety devices
• If the cutoff has tripped, inspect heating element, thermostats, and airflow for underlying faults
