Thermal Fuse for Dryers.
The Whirlpool brand encompasses a range of products from Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures compatible items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. The thermal fuse offered is a genuine OEM replacement part designed for use in Whirlpool dryers. It serves as a critical safety feature by monitoring and guarding the heating elements within the dryer.
The function of the thermal fuse is to detect any excessive heat within the dryer. Should the internal temperature escalate excessively, possibly due to a clog or similar problem, the fuse will disrupt the electrical circuit, halting any further heating to prevent hazards.
Indicators of a malfunctioning thermal fuse are:
- The dryer not heating or maintaining warmth throughout cycles
- Heat levels that are uneven or variable
- Frequent tripping of circuit breakers post drying sessions
The usual causes of failure are attributed to wear or damage after prolonged exposure to high temperatures, which can make the components brittle and less effective.
This specific OEM replacement part from Whirlpool is also suitable for certain models from Kenmore, Admiral, Roper, and Estate.
Replacing this part can resolve issues such as:
- The dryer failing to start
- Insufficient heating or no heating at all during operation
