Choice 8544771 Dryer Heating Element - Compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Amana Dryers
Product Description
Restore your dryer’s heating performance with the Replacement 8544771 Dryer Heating Element. This high-quality replacement heating element coil replaces the Whirlpool WP8544771, designed for select Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Amana, and other brand dryers. Made of durable metal and ceramic with a nickel-chromium coil, it produces 5400W at 240V to heat air for efficient drying. It fixes issues like no heat, insufficient heat, long drying times, or clothes remaining damp.
Note: Requires reuse of the existing heating element housing. Inspect thermostats (e.g., 279973, 279816) and thermal fuses (e.g., 3392519) for continuity, as they often fail alongside the element. Test the coil with a multimeter before replacement to confirm failure.
