Dryer Thermal Fuse and High Limit Thermostat

The High Limit Thermostat serves as an essential component for LG dryers, including brands like LG and Sears-Kenmore. It functions as a safety mechanism that interrupts the heating process if the dryer's internal temperature surpasses a specific limit. By doing so, it helps to prevent overheating that could otherwise result in appliance malfunction or fire hazards.

When the High Limit Thermostat fails, you might notice several issues:
- The dryer may not heat up sufficiently.
- The dryer could become unusually hot.
- The dryer might stop operating prematurely.

This thermostat is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part, compatible with both LG and Kenmore/Sears models.

Common problems resolved by replacing this part include:
- Insufficient or no heat generation.
- The dryer failing to start.

The design of this thermostat ensures it activates at a predetermined temperature, effectively managing the heat within the dryer to maintain safe operation.
