🧩 Compatibility Notes
-
This part is a thermal fuse (safety cut-off) – it is not a resettable thermostat. If the fuse has blown, the dryer will not heat and cannot be reset.
-
Often the fuse blows because of venting issues, blocked lint screen, or clogged exhaust ducts — replacing the fuse alone may not fully fix the root cause unless airflow is restored.
-
Confirm your dryer’s model plate, service manual, and current part number to ensure WP35001193 is correct; even similar models may use a different fuse or bracket combination.
-
Power should be disconnected before servicing. If you’re uncertain, have a maintenance technician verify and install.
