Description

This heater is the electric heating element assembly that generates heat for drying cycles, restoring proper drying performance and cycle temperatures when the original element fails. What it does:

• Converts electrical power into heat to warm the air used during drying cycles
• Commonly linked to no-heat or low-heat symptoms and prolonged drying times
• Can cause the dryer to overwork or run longer when the element is damaged
• May trip thermal fuses or breakers if shorted or grounded

What's included:

• One heater assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Access typically requires removing the dryer cabinet or rear access panel; follow OEM instructions
• Inspect and replace related safety parts (thermal fuses, high-limit thermostats) if they show failure
• Test the new element for continuity and secure all electrical connections before reassembly
