Whirlpool/Kenmore
279816 Dryer Thermal Fuse/Safety Kit
Here's
the very popular Whirlpool 279816 electric dryer thermal
kit - ON SALE! Fits most of those 29 inch (wide) dryers made by Whirlpool,
including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Kitchenaid, Roper, and
Estate brands, that use the #279838 'short' element.
If your dryer uses a 309F or 325F thermal fuse, then this is your kit.
The thermal fuse, the smaller component on the left in the picture, is the
device that commonly burns open, by design, when your dryer overheats.
This fuse most often fails when there's a clog in the vent
system.
Should
be replaced as a set, because if there's been a vent problem, the safety
thermostat (on the right in the picture) has most likely been
'short-cycling', and will be badly stressed.
This
is a 'generic' kit that has been a very good 'sub' for the 'OEM'
one.
This
is the second most popular kit Whirlpool uses, but there are several thermal kits currently in
use. If you're in any doubt about which one your dryer uses,
drop
me an email with your model number and I'll make sure we get
you the right one (I stock them all, just don't have them posted yet). You'll find the
model number inside your dryer's door, starting with 'L' if it's a
Whirlpool, or '110' if it's a Whirlpool-made Kenmore brand.
It's
not a bad idea to keep one of these on hand if you're at all handy and enjoy
the affections of an admiring spouse (and clean laundry) <grin>.
They always seem to fail on weekends or holidays or when your college
kids have come home with that carload of laundry! ;-).
Not
hard to replace, but you'll find diagnostic help here
and
I'm right here to help should you have any questions.
To
buy this thermal kit immediately using Paypal (use your credit card), click the
