Description

This high-limit safety thermostat monitors temperature on the dryer's heater housing and opens the heating circuit if temperatures climb too high. It helps protect components from overheating and can restore safe, reliable heating when the original control has failed. What it does
  • Monitors heater housing temperature and opens the circuit on overheat
  • Acts as a safety backup for the heating system to prevent damage
  • Failure symptoms can include: dryer runs but no heat, intermittent heat that stops mid-cycle, or the thermostat testing open at room temperature
  • Repeat trips often indicate restricted airflow; check venting and lint buildup
What's included
  • One high-limit thermostat
Install notes
  • Disconnect power; for gas models, also shut off the gas supply
  • Note wire locations, remove the old thermostat from the heater housing, and transfer wires to the new part
  • Mount the thermostat flush to the housing for proper sensing; secure with existing hardware
  • Before reassembly, clear lint and ensure proper airflow through the lint screen, duct, and exterior vent
