Whirlpool Range / Cooktop / Oven Fuse Or Sensor

This fixed thermostat monitors and limits temperature to protect the appliance's system and components. It's a simple, non-adjustable sensor/limit switch used where a set cutoff temperature is required for safe operation. What it does:

• Opens or cuts power when the monitored temperature reaches its fixed limit to prevent overheating
• Helps stop continuous heating cycles caused by a failed control or sensor
• Commonly used as a safety cutoff in temperature-control circuits
• Can resolve symptoms like persistent overheating, failure to stop heating, or temperature-related shutdowns

• One fixed thermostat (single unit)

• Disconnect power before inspecting or replacing the thermostat to avoid shock or damage
• Handle gently; avoid bending terminals or stressing sensing elements
