00613753 Bosch Dryer Temperature Regulator Thermistor

The Dryer Temperature Regulator Thermistor is an essential component manufactured as an OEM part for Bosch dryers, and it is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and certain Kenmore models. Positioned inside the dryer cabinet, this temperature-sensitive resistor plays a crucial role in monitoring air temperatures during drying cycles. It continuously relays temperature data to the control board, ensuring the dryer operates efficiently.

Common issues with the thermistor usually arise from gradual sensor degradation or physical damage, which can occur due to repeated exposure to moisture fluctuations and mechanical vibrations within the drum. Additionally, mineral scale accumulation might affect the resistance measurements over time.

When the thermistor starts malfunctioning, several symptoms may appear. These include the inability of the temperature regulator to accurately gauge air temperature inside the sleeve, inconsistent drying temperatures across different loads, thermal runaway that may activate high-limit cut-offs or generate error codes, and extended drying times due to control discrepancies.

This part is critical for maintaining the performance and efficiency of your Bosch, Thermador, Gaggenau, or Kenmore dryer.
