Description

Dryer problems? Fix the problem and the symptoms with the dryer heating element and thermostat kit. 

The kit contains:

  • Dryer Element
  • Thermostat
  • Thermal Fuse

If your clothes are still wet after running through the dryer, it might need a new dryer element. But your element might need new thermostats. Otherwise, your element could burn out again!

The dryer element is responsible for heating up the dryer so it can dry your clothes. But it’s your dryer’s thermostats that are responsible for regulating the heat of the element. 

Old thermostats are one of the most common causes for burned out dryer elements: they tell the element to heat up but don’t tell it to cool down, resulting in a burned out element.

That’s why we created this kit. It comes with both the dryer element and replacements for each thermostat in your dryer. This way, in one repair, you can replace both.

  • This kit comes with 1 Dryer Heating Element (279838), 1 Thermal Fuse (3392519), and 1 Dryer Thermostat (279973)
