Microwave has no power or won't heat? A blown thermal fuse is often the cause. This safety part protects against overheating. DIY repair in 30 minutes.
It is difficult (if not impossible) to remove the electronic switches from the hard plastic latches. I replaced all three switches and both the upper and lower latches I also replaced the main 20 amp ceramic fuse which blew out when the latch/switches failed. Read more

Dryer won't heat? A failed thermal cut-off fuse cuts power when temps spike. DIYers replace this safety part in 20-30 minutes with basic tools.
The 2 sensors that sit on top of the flame tube work together. The Thrmst F should check closed, as should the Cutoff-TML, in order for power to flow to the ignitor. If the Cutoff is open, it is usually because the Thrmst-F did not open soon enough. The Thermst-F will cycle, closed to open, and repeat, however the Cutoff-HTML is a one time switch. If it opens it will not return to closed, and subsequently the ignitor will not glow. Some professionals say that if one of these sensors fail, both... Read more
The Water Temperature Sensor is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This sensor ensures the water is reaching the proper temperature at each stage of the wash cycle. Note: The sensor does not include the seal WP8540766. Order separately if needed.
Causes of a bad temperature sensor can be failures over time due to mechanical wear, thermal stress on electronic components, or damage from leaks/flooding inside the unit.
Symptoms of a bad water temperature sensor include:
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
Replace the water temperature sensor and still had the error code. While I had the back of the machine open I ran the washer. I traced the black wires from the temperature sensor and wiggled them as the washer was running. At one zip tie every time i moved the wires the washer would stop running and the error code would flash. Sure enough, like many others posted, the vibration from the machine had split the wire. I spiced the wire back together and have not had a problem since. Read more

Microwave won't power on or turn on? Failed thermostat causes complete power loss. This safety part protects against overheating. DIY repair in 30 minutes.
I attempted to diagnose the four thermostats/thermal switches in the microwave....two right behind the control panel, one on top of the cooking cabin, and one under a metal shroud above the magnetron. While checking continuity with a voltmeter, i questioned one of them behind the control panel and the one above the magnetron. I then noticed a burn mark on the plastic connector sleeve for the one above the magnetron. I took a scrap piece of 14 gage copper wire and beat the ends flat with a... Read more

Dryer won't heat? This high limit thermostat cycles the heating element to maintain safe temperatures. A simple 5-10 minute fix with a multimeter test.
The Thermal Fuse is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This part cuts off power to the oven if it detects excessively high temperatures, preventing potential overheating and ensuring safe operation.
Over time, the thermal fuse can fail due to regular use, exposure to high temperatures, or electrical issues.
Symptoms of a bad thermal fuse include:
Replaced fuse. It took much longer to get the oven out of the wall to access the fuse and replace the front panel than to do the repair. This fuse failed at the end of the cleaning cycle for the bottom oven and left the door locked because the open fuse removed the 120v power from the control board. The locked door made it impossible to remove one of the screws holding the wall oven in place. However, after I ground off the head of the screw behind the edge of the locked door I was able to...

The High Limit Thermostat is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ovens. It acts as a safety mechanism that monitors the oven's temperature to prevent overheating. When the oven exceeds a specific temperature, the high-limit thermostat interrupts the electrical flow to the heating element, ensuring the appliance remains within safe operating conditions. Causes of a bad High Limit Thermostat can include a malfunction due to electrical issues or component failure. It may become unresponsive over time, failing to cut off the power to the heating element when the oven overheats. Symptoms of a bad High Limit Thermostat include:
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
Replaced the thermst-fix and the thermal fuse oven now works great Read more
Oven won't heat or has no power after self-clean? A blown thermal fuse is likely the cause. This safety part cuts power if temps get too high.
This is for the Whirlpool in-wall double oven GBD307PDS10. No power and the door locked after the shutdown before the self-cleaning cycle was over. I watched some video and this is a known issue the fuses blow during self-cleaning. I opened the door with a 90-degree hook, an easy task. Took doors off (watch video from others), unscrewed from the wall, and made a very small platform. and took the oven out (need two people and take the doors off first. The doors are heavy and you won't lift the... Read more
Dryer won't heat or stops heating? This high limit thermostat monitors heater housing temperature and cuts power if it overheats. Easy DIY fix.
Washing machine should have been an easy fix that I had done before but ran into problems with the upper bearing and the bearing diameter on the shaft (a no go situation). By the time I was able to get the bearing seated I had damaged the new bearing. Much to my surprise Cierra in customer service sent me out a new bearing kit. I was then able to get the washer up and running with the new bearing kit and motor stator replacement. The dryer was a matter of replacing all of the electrical... Read more
