XPARTCO 3387747 Dryer Heating Element Replaces WP3387747
The XPARTCO 3387747 is an aftermarket replacement heating element assembly for Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Roper electric dryers. This element is the source of virtually all the heat in the dryer: current flows through a nickel-chromium coil, which glows and radiates heat as the blower pushes air across it and into the drum. Everything downstream — the drum temperature, the drying time, the final dampness of your clothes — depends on this coil working correctly.
Rated 5400W at 240V, with two 5/16" terminals for a direct connection. The nickel-chromium coil is rated at roughly 85% nickel-chromium content for effective, heat-and-abrasion-resistant heating, and it's mounted in high-temperature ceramic insulators that hold it firmly in the frame so it won't loosen or shift under the vibration of a running dryer. Over years of use, the coil itself typically fails with a visible break somewhere along its length — a section simply burns through and the circuit opens, cutting off heat entirely. It directly replaces WP3387747, WP3387747VP, W11045584, W11344457, 80003, 525502, AP6008281, AP2947033, PS344597, PS11741416, EAP11741416, FIX11741416, AWP47520, and PD00002365.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Test Continuity Before Assuming It's The Element Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the rear panel or the front, depending on your model, to reach the heater duct/blower housing area where the element is mounted. Before removing anything, test the old element with a multimeter set to continuity — a healthy element reads continuous end to end, while a failed one (with a visible break in the coil) reads open. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the two wire terminals from the old element, remove the mounting screws or clips holding it in the duct housing, and pull it free. Install the new 3387747 assembly in the same position, reconnect the two wire terminals, and secure the mounting hardware. While the dryer is open, this is a good time to fully clean the exhaust vent ducting from the lint trap to the outside vent hood — restricted airflow is a major cause of heating element failure, and a fresh element installed into a clogged system will likely fail again prematurely. Reassemble the panel, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm the dryer is heating normally. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, 5/16" wrench, Phillips screwdriver, multimeter, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer has no heat at all. Should I replace the element first, or check something else?
Check the thermal fuse first. A blown thermal fuse produces the exact same "no heat at all" symptom as a failed heating element, and it's a much cheaper, faster part to test and replace. Whirlpool's own service guidance recommends checking the thermal fuse before replacing the element. If the fuse tests good and the dryer still has no heat, the element itself is the next thing to test and likely replace.
How can I tell if the element has actually failed?
The most reliable way is a continuity test with a multimeter — set it to continuity mode, disconnect the element's wires, and touch a probe to each terminal. A healthy element shows continuity (a complete circuit); a failed one shows open (no continuity), which usually corresponds to a visible break or burned-through section somewhere in the coil if you inspect it closely.
Why does the listing recommend cleaning the vent duct during this repair?
Restricted airflow from a lint-clogged exhaust duct is one of the most common root causes of heating element failure — when air can't move through the system properly, heat builds up around the element well beyond its designed operating range, accelerating wear and often leading directly to a burned-through coil. Since you'll already have the dryer open for this repair, cleaning the full duct run from the lint trap to the outside vent hood is a good use of the same trip and helps the new element last.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the 5400W/240V electrical rating, nickel-chromium coil composition, ceramic insulator mounting, and terminal configuration of the original WP3387747 heating element used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Roper dryers.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Safety First — Unplug Dryer and Shut Off Gas Before Starting Unplug the dryer from the power source (and shut off the gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair. The thermal fuse is located on the exhaust duct or blower wheel housing — access it by removing the back or front panel depending on your dryer model. Disconnect the two wire terminals from the old fuse, remove the fuse from its bracket, install the new fuse in the same position, reconnect the terminals, and reassemble the panel. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4-inch nut driver, and a multimeter to confirm the new fuse has continuity. ⚠️ Important: Before completing the repair, always check and clear the exhaust vent of any lint buildup — a blocked vent is the most common cause of thermal fuse failure and will blow the new fuse if not corrected.
Frequently Asked Questions

What does a dryer thermal fuse do?
The thermal fuse is a one-time-use safety device that monitors the temperature inside the dryer. When the dryer overheats — typically due to a clogged exhaust vent — the fuse permanently opens the circuit, cutting power to the heating system to prevent a fire. Once blown, it cannot be reset and must be replaced.
How do I know if my thermal fuse is blown?
Test the fuse with a multimeter set to continuity mode. Touch the probes to each of the two terminals. A working fuse will show continuity (beep or near-zero ohms). A blown fuse will show no continuity (open circuit). If there is no continuity, the fuse is blown and must be replaced.
Why did my thermal fuse blow?
The most common cause is restricted airflow due to a clogged or kinked exhaust vent, a plugged lint trap, or a damaged blower wheel. Always check and clear the exhaust vent before or after replacing the fuse — failing to do so will cause the new fuse to blow again.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is designed to deliver reliable overheat protection at a more affordable price point.

WP3392519 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Thermal Fuse
The WP3392519 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM thermal fuse mounted on the blower housing next to the blower fan. This fuse is a one-time safety device: as long as the dryer stays within its normal operating temperature, it does nothing at all, but the instant internal temperatures climb high enough — almost always from restricted airflow — the fuse permanently opens the circuit and cuts power to the dryer. That's why a blown thermal fuse produces such a specific symptom: the dryer won't start at all, with no lights, no tumble, and no response, even though the outlet has power.
This fuse opens at approximately 196°F (91°C) and terminates in two 3/16" wire terminals for a direct plug-in fit. Unlike a resettable thermostat, this thermal fuse cannot be reset once it blows — it must be replaced. A blown thermal fuse is almost always a symptom rather than a random failure: restricted exhaust venting is the leading cause, since trapped heat is exactly what the fuse is designed to react to. A shorted heating element or a failed regulating thermostat can also cause the dryer to run hot enough to blow the fuse. It directly replaces 3392519, WP3392519VP, AP6008325, 3388651, 694511, ET401, PS11741460, EAP11741460, AH11741460, EA11741460, PD00002311, G4AP0500, and 80005.
Quick Answer
The WP3392519 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Thermal Fuse fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Roper, Jenn-Air, and Amana dryers that won't start at all — no lights, no tumble, no response to any button. Opens at approximately 196°F (91°C). Two 3/16" wire terminals.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Inspect And Clean The Venting Before Reassembling Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the rear panel: remove the screws securing the panel to reach the blower housing where the fuse is mounted. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting the wire terminals from the old fuse. Remove the mounting screw holding the fuse in place and pull it free, disconnecting both wire terminals. Before installing the new fuse, test it for continuity with a multimeter to confirm it's good out of the box, and test the old one to confirm it's actually blown (no continuity) rather than assuming. This is the most important step: fully inspect and clean the dryer's exhaust vent, from the lint trap housing all the way to the exterior vent hood, checking for lint buildup, crushed sections, or excessive length. A blown thermal fuse is a symptom of restricted airflow, and skipping this step means the new fuse is likely to blow again. Install the new WP3392519 in the same mounting position, reconnect both wire terminals, and secure the mounting screw. Reinstall the rear panel, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm normal heating and shutoff behavior. Tools needed: Phillips or nut driver (model-dependent), multimeter, vent brush or vacuum attachment for cleaning ductwork, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer has no power at all and the lights won't turn on. Is this the thermal fuse?
It's a strong possibility. When this thermal fuse blows, it cuts power broadly enough that the console lights and control panel can go completely dark, not just the heating function — that's a normal result of how this fuse is wired into the circuit. Before replacing it, confirm the outlet has power and the breaker hasn't tripped, then check the fuse for continuity with a multimeter. If it shows no continuity, this fuse is the correct fix, though it's also worth checking the exhaust ducting since that's the most common underlying cause.
I replaced the fuse and it blew again. What's going on?
This is a strong sign that the underlying cause — almost always restricted airflow — was never addressed. Thermal fuses don't fail from age; they blow because the dryer overheated. If a new fuse keeps blowing, thoroughly inspect and clean the entire exhaust path from the lint trap housing to the outside vent hood, checking for lint buildup, crushed or kinked ductwork, or a vent run that's too long. If airflow checks out and the fuse still blows, have the heating element and cycling thermostat checked as well, since a component stuck in the "on" position can also drive excess heat.
Can I just reset the thermal fuse instead of replacing it?
No. Unlike a cycling thermostat, this thermal fuse is a one-time safety device — once it blows, its internal circuit is permanently broken and it cannot be reset or repaired. Replacement is the only option.
My clothes came out extremely hot right before the dryer died. Is that related?
Yes, this is a classic warning sign. Clothes coming out unusually hot indicates the dryer was already running hotter than normal, which is exactly the condition that leads to a blown thermal fuse. If you noticed this before the dryer stopped working, it strongly points to a ventilation or airflow problem that should be fully addressed before running the dryer again.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original opening temperature, terminal configuration, and mounting position of the thermal fuse originally installed in your dryer.

XPARTCO 279973 Dryer Thermostat Kit
The XPARTCO 279973 is an aftermarket replacement dryer thermostat and thermal cut-off kit compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool-family electric dryers including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Inglis, Roper, and Admiral. The kit contains two components — the high-limit thermostat (L295-80F) and the thermal cut-off fuse — both located on the heating element housing. Together they protect the dryer's heating element from overheating: the high-limit thermostat monitors element temperature and cuts power if it exceeds safe levels, then resets when cooled. The thermal cut-off fuse is a backup one-time device that permanently opens the circuit if the thermostat fails to protect the element.
Both parts are mounted on the side of the heating element housing and can be accessed through the dryer's back panel. The thermal cut-off fuse is a non-resettable one-time device — once it opens, it must be replaced. The 279973 kit includes both parts, an instruction sheet, and hardware. It directly replaces 3391913, 3404151, 3404152, 3977395, 8318314, 897710, 279973VP, AP3094323, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Note: this kit is for electric dryers only. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 279973 Dryer Thermostat Kit fixes Whirlpool-family electric dryers with no heat, overheating, or a dryer that shuts off too early. Kit includes the L295-80F high-limit thermostat (auto-reset, opens at 295°F) and the thermal cut-off fuse (352°F, one-time). Both mount on the heating element housing. Electric dryers only. Replaces 3391913, 3404151, 8318314, 897710, AP3094323. Compatible with Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Inglis, Roper, and Admiral.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Electric Dryers Only Disconnect power before beginning. Remove the back panel of the dryer by unscrewing the perimeter screws to expose the heating element housing. Both the high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off fuse are mounted on the side of the heating element housing — the thermostat is typically the larger component and the thermal cut-off fuse is smaller. Test each component with a multimeter before removing (both should show closed continuity at room temperature; the failed one will read open). Photograph the wiring before disconnecting. Disconnect the wires, remove the mounting screws, and install the new components in the same positions. Reconnect the wires and mounting screws, reinstall the back panel, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm heat. Tip: Before running the dryer, clean the full length of the exhaust duct — a clogged vent is the most common cause of overheating and a blown thermal cut-off fuse. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, multimeter.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the high-limit thermostat and the thermal cut-off fuse in this kit?
The high-limit thermostat (L295-80F) is a resettable safety switch that opens at 295°F to cut power to the heating element and resets automatically when the temperature drops. It is the primary protection against overheating during normal operation. The thermal cut-off fuse is a one-time backup device rated at 352°F — it permanently opens the circuit if the heating element temperature climbs beyond the point the thermostat should have caught. Once the cut-off fuse opens, it must be replaced; it does not reset on its own. If the cut-off fuse has blown, it usually means the high-limit thermostat also failed to do its job and should be replaced at the same time — which is exactly what this kit provides.
How do I test these parts with a multimeter?
Unplug the dryer and remove the back panel to access the heating element housing. Disconnect each component from the wiring and probe both terminals with a multimeter set to continuity or resistance mode. At room temperature, both the high-limit thermostat and the thermal cut-off fuse should show closed continuity (near-zero resistance). Any component that reads open circuit (no continuity) has failed and needs to be replaced. The thermal cut-off fuse reads open even after it cools — it is non-resettable. The high-limit thermostat may read open at room temperature if it has failed internally rather than by an overheat trip.
How is the 279973 kit different from the XP6974 thermostat kit?
The 279973 is a 2-part kit — high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off fuse — designed specifically for the heating element housing of Whirlpool-family electric dryers. The XP6974 is a 4-part kit — cycling thermostat, thermal fuse, high-limit thermostat, and thermal cut-off — designed for Whirlpool-family gas and electric dryers, covering both the exhaust duct components and the burner/element housing components. If your electric dryer is showing no-heat and you need only the heating element housing components, the 279973 kit covers exactly those two parts. If you want to replace all thermal components in one repair, the XP6974 covers a broader set.
Why does the thermal cut-off fuse keep blowing?
If the thermal cut-off fuse blows repeatedly after replacement, it almost always means there is an underlying overheating condition causing the heating element housing to run hotter than it should. The most common cause is a clogged or restricted exhaust vent — lint accumulation in the duct reduces airflow, trapping heat inside the dryer cabinet and around the element. Other causes include a failed cycling thermostat that is not regulating element temperature correctly, a stuck heating element relay, or a dryer in an enclosed space with inadequate ventilation. Always clean the full exhaust duct and check the cycling thermostat (WP3387134) before replacing the thermal cut-off fuse a second time.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement kit built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the temperature ratings and specifications of the original 279973 high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off fuse kit.
