Whirlpool WPY055980 Appliance High-Temperature Adhesive OEM Part

After replacing thermal fuse once and having it fail a second time, I had to dig a little deeper to uncover the problem. I checked for blockage in the vent but everything was clear. I did, however, find that the drum had some up and down play in it. After closer inspection, I could see that the front drum seal was actually worn to the point that I could see a gap between the seal and the drum. I figured that the gap in the seal was letting air in and not letting sufficient air flow through the heater unit. By not letting enough air flow through the heater unit, the heat increased to the point of activating the thermal fuse. The limit thermostat was defective or it would have stopped the heater from getting to the point of blowing the thermal fuse. The dryer may have been operating off the limit thermostat and not the cycling thermostat as it is intended to. This may have caused the limit thermostat failure. I ordered the front and rear felt seals, new drum glides and felt pads, and adhesive for the seals. I was totally impressed that the parts were here two days later and allowed me to install them that weekend. After letting the adhesive set for a day, I put everything back together and monitored the heater, the limit thermostat, and the cycling thermostat with multimeters while the dryer was in operation. The dryer was now working off of the cycling thermostat. Another bonus was that the dryer ran a lot quieter. Thank you Appliance Parts Pros for your prompt delivery and ordering help.

I went on line and purchased all of the possible parts that could be worn out. I spent less than the service guy wanted to show up...The online videos were spot on. Two hours and it works like new! One of the best values on the Internet!

I ordered parts from appliance parts pro at 3:30 on Friday and they were delivered at bout noon on Saturday the next day. Took the machine apart removed the old pads. With the directions in the packages put it back together and the wife ran 5 loads of clothes through it. Works great. Was awesome to get the parts so quick

I ordered the damper pad repair kit and high temp adhesive. I disassembled the washer, taking time to clean and inspect the entire washer. Replaced the damper pads as instructed (with a few helpful hints from The Appliance Parts Pros - Joe Martin) and then centered my washer tub. She runs like a top now. Thanks Joe !

After watching the videos online that Appliance Parts Pros provided, I decided to tackle the project myself. It was as simple as removing the door and front cover of the dryer and removing the drum. I then placed a new front seal to the front cover. Appliance Parts Pros made the job so easy. Great tutorial videos, best prices, and the fastest shipping I have seen from an Internet business. Thank you!!!
