WR55X10025 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Temperature Sensor
The WR55X10025 is a genuine GE OEM temperature sensor, also called a thermistor, for GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore refrigerators. This sensor measures air temperature inside the refrigerator or freezer compartment and reports it continuously to the main control board, which uses that reading to regulate the cooling cycle. On some models, this same sensor design also serves as the defrost sensor mounted on the evaporator coil, monitoring temperature there to help manage the defrost cycle.
Because the control board relies entirely on this sensor's reading to make cooling decisions, a failing or inaccurate sensor can cause the refrigerator to run too cold, too warm, or run for excessively long periods as it tries to correct a temperature it's misreading. On models where it doubles as a defrost sensor, a failure here can also contribute to frost or ice buildup in the freezer. This is a relatively inexpensive part, and it's commonly the actual cause behind symptoms that get mistakenly blamed on the main control board. It directly replaces AP3185407, 914093, AH304103, EA304103, PS304103, WR50X10027, WR50X10034, WR50X10055, WR50X10067, WR55X10025B, WR55X10026, WR55X10027, WR55X10028, WR55X10030, WR55X10087, WR55X10088, WR55X10089, WR55X10367, WR55X10380, WR55X10661, WR55X10711, WR55X10735, WR55X10736, WR55X10737, WR55X10937, WR55X10938, WR55X10939, WR55X11121, WR55X11141, WR55X11150, WR55X11151, and WR55X11152.
Quick Answer
The WR55X10025 Genuine OEM GE Refrigerator Temperature Sensor fixes GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore refrigerators that run too cold, too warm, run for excessively long periods, or (on models where this sensor doubles as a defrost sensor) show frost or ice buildup in the freezer. A healthy sensor reads approximately 5,000 ohms at 77°F. Replaces AP3185407, 914093, AH304103, EA304103, PS304103, and a wide range of WR50X/WR55X-prefix numbers listed below.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Danger — Authorized Service Part Required For Flammable Refrigerant Systems GE's own service guidance carries an explicit warning for this component: it is a manufacturer-authorized service part intended for use in refrigerator models that use a flammable refrigerant, such as R600a. Using an unauthorized or incorrectly rated service part in a unit that uses a flammable refrigerant could lead to a risk of fire or explosion. Before ordering or installing, confirm your refrigerator's refrigerant type and verify this part is correct for your specific model. If you have any doubt about your refrigerant type or the correct part for your unit, contact our support team with your model number before proceeding, or have a qualified appliance technician perform this repair.
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Test With A Multimeter Before Replacing Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning, and move perishable food to a cooler for the duration of the repair. Wear work gloves. Before replacing, it's worth testing the old sensor with a multimeter set to ohms — a healthy sensor reads approximately 5,000 ohms at 77°F; a reading well outside that range, or an open circuit, confirms a failed sensor. Locate the sensor, typically mounted on an interior wall of the compartment or clipped to the evaporator coil depending on your model. Photograph the wiring and mounting position before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the sensor's wire connector, remove any mounting clip or bracket, and pull the old sensor free. When positioning the new WR55X10025, make sure it sits in open air away from direct contact with ice buildup areas, since ice touching the sensor can cause it to read colder than the compartment's actual temperature. Reconnect the wire connector and secure the mounting clip. Restore power and monitor the refrigerator over the next 24 hours, comparing the display temperature to an independent thermometer placed in the compartment to confirm accuracy. Tools needed: multimeter, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I test whether this sensor has actually failed?
Use a multimeter set to ohms and test the sensor across its two terminals. A healthy sensor typically reads approximately 5,000 ohms at 77°F room temperature; a reading significantly outside that range, or no reading at all (open circuit), confirms the sensor has failed and should be replaced.
My display shows a temperature that doesn't match how cold the fridge actually feels. Could positioning be the issue, not the sensor itself?
Yes, this is a documented and somewhat subtle failure mode. If the sensor ends up positioned too close to an area where ice or frost accumulates, the ice's surface temperature can pull the sensor's reading colder than the actual compartment air temperature, causing the display to show a colder number than reality — sometimes off by several degrees. One customer traced exactly this issue to ice buildup near the sensor location and resolved it by ensuring the new sensor sat clear of that ice-prone area during installation.
Could my problem actually be the control board instead of this sensor?
It's worth testing this sensor first before assuming a control board issue. This is a relatively inexpensive part, and it's commonly the actual root cause behind symptoms that get misdiagnosed as a control board failure, since the board is only ever as accurate as the temperature data it receives. Testing or simply replacing this sensor is a low-cost step worth taking before pursuing a more expensive board repair.
Why is there a fire/explosion warning on this part?
Some refrigerators use a flammable refrigerant, such as R600a (isobutane), instead of older non-flammable refrigerants. Electrical components near refrigerant lines can be a source of ignition if a leak were ever present, which is why GE requires an authorized, correctly rated service part for these systems rather than a generic substitute. Confirming your model and refrigerant type before ordering is the appropriate precaution.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original resistance curve and mounting configuration of the temperature sensor originally installed in your refrigerator.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. Remove the top panel by inserting a putty knife under the front edge to release the spring clips, then lift. Remove the front panel to fully expose the drum. Take a photo of the existing belt routing before removing anything. Release the drive belt from the idler pulley and slide it off the drum. Remove the drum and set it aside. Replace all four drum support rollers — remove the old tri-ring clips with needle-nose pliers, slide the old rollers off the shafts, and install the new WPW10314173 rollers with new tri-rings and the included washer. Replace the idler pulley (279640) by pressing the new wheel onto the idler arm shaft. Route the new 661570V belt around the drum (ribbed side against the drum), under the idler pulley, and around the motor pulley. Reinstall the drum, front panel, and top panel. Restore power and run a test cycle. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife, needle-nose pliers, socket set.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the belt in this kit (661570V) fits my dryer?
The belt included in this kit is 661570V (93-1/2" long, 1/4" wide, 4-rib). To confirm it is correct for your dryer, look up your dryer's model number in an online parts diagram and check the belt part number listed. If the parts diagram shows 661570V or its cross-reference 661570, this kit's belt is correct. If your diagram shows a different belt part number — for example 341241, W10205415, or WP8547157 — the rollers and idler in this kit will still fit your dryer, but you will need to order the correct belt separately. This is the most important compatibility check before purchasing this kit.
Is the idler pulley (279640) a complete arm assembly or just the wheel?
The 279640 included in this kit is the pulley wheel only — it does not include the idler arm or bracket. It presses onto the existing idler arm shaft inside your dryer. If the idler arm itself is cracked or broken, the arm assembly will need to be replaced separately. On most Whirlpool 27-inch dryers the arm itself rarely fails — it is the wheel bearing that wears out, which is what the 279640 wheel in this kit addresses.
Why should I replace all four rollers instead of just the one that's noisy?
All four drum support rollers wear at the same rate through the same number of drying cycles. When one roller starts making noise, the other three have experienced the same wear and are likely close behind. Replacing only the noisy roller leaves three worn rollers supporting the drum unevenly, often leading to a repeat repair within months. Since the dryer is already fully disassembled for this repair, replacing all four at once is the most cost-effective and long-lasting approach.
How is the 4392067 kit different from the 4392065 kit?
Both are Genuine OEM Whirlpool dryer repair kits but for different dryer platforms. The 4392065 is for older Whirlpool 29-inch dryers with the lint screen on top (contains belt 341241, 2 rollers 349241T, idler pulley 691366). The 4392067 is for newer Whirlpool 27-inch dryers with the lint screen inside the door — typically the Duet, Cabrio, Bravos XL, and Thin Twin platforms (contains belt 661570V, 4 rollers WPW10314173, idler pulley wheel 279640). They are not interchangeable — verify your dryer's lint filter location and model series before ordering.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM kit assembled by Whirlpool to factory specifications. All components — belt, rollers, idler pulley, tri-rings, and washer — are the same parts installed in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, and related brand 27-inch dryers from the factory.

XPARTCO WE1M1002 Dryer Fuse, 30 AMP 120V
The XPARTCO WE1M1002 is an aftermarket replacement power fuse for GE and Hotpoint dryers, commonly used on GE's commercial and stacked laundry center dryer models. This is a CCMR-class fuse — a current-limiting, fast-acting power fuse — and it plays a fundamentally different protective role than a thermal cut-off fuse. Rather than reacting to excess heat from restricted airflow, this fuse reacts to electrical faults: if the dryer experiences a short circuit or a current overload beyond what the wiring is rated to handle, this fuse opens the circuit immediately to prevent damage to the dryer's electrical components.
Rated 30A, 120V, measuring approximately 3/8"H x 3/8"W x 1-1/2"D. Because this fuse protects against electrical faults rather than heat buildup, a blown WE1M1002 points toward a different diagnostic path than a thermal fuse would: rather than checking the exhaust venting, the more relevant checks are the dryer's wiring, connections, and any component that may have shorted internally. A blown fuse produces a complete loss of power to the dryer — no lights, no display, no response to any control. It directly replaces WE01M1002, 1974262, AP5270172, PS3496852, and EAP3496852.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WE1M1002 Dryer Fuse fixes GE and Hotpoint dryers, including commercial and stacked laundry center models, that have completely lost power — no lights, no display, no response to any control. CCMR-class, 30A, 120V. Replaces WE01M1002, 1974262, AP5270172, PS3496852, EAP3496852. This is a power/overcurrent fuse, not a thermal cut-off fuse — if it's blown, check the dryer's wiring and electrical connections for a short or fault rather than the exhaust venting.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer has completely lost power — no lights, no display, no response to any control
Dryer that stopped working suddenly, especially after an electrical fault or short
Dryer that trips repeatedly after a wiring or component issue elsewhere in the unit
Continuity test shows an open circuit across the old fuse
Complete electrical dead-out on a commercial or stacked laundry center dryer

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Investigate The Cause Of The Short Before Replacing Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Locate the fuse holder inside the dryer's electrical panel or control housing — access varies by model, so consult your unit's service diagram. Before removing the old fuse, visually inspect nearby wiring and connections for signs of a short, such as scorching, melted insulation, or a loose connection, since this fuse type responds to electrical faults rather than heat buildup from airflow issues. Test the old fuse with a multimeter to confirm it's open (no continuity) before assuming it needs replacement. Remove the old fuse from its holder and install the new WE1M1002 in the same position, making sure it seats fully and securely. Restore power and test the dryer to confirm normal operation. If the new fuse blows again shortly after installation, stop and have a qualified technician diagnose the underlying electrical fault before continuing, since repeatedly replacing this fuse without addressing the root cause can be a sign of a more serious wiring or component issue. Tools needed: fuse puller or needle-nose pliers, multimeter, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from a thermal cut-off fuse?
They protect against completely different problems. A thermal cut-off fuse reacts to excess heat, usually from restricted exhaust airflow, and its diagnosis typically starts with checking the venting. This WE1M1002 is a CCMR-class power fuse that reacts to electrical faults — a short circuit or current overload — and its diagnosis should focus on the dryer's wiring and electrical connections rather than the exhaust system.
My dryer has completely no power at all. Is this the fuse?
It's a strong possibility, especially if this occurred suddenly or followed any unusual electrical event. Since this fuse protects the dryer's power circuit broadly, a blown fuse can result in a total loss of power — no lights, no display, nothing. Test it with a multimeter for continuity before replacing to confirm.
I replaced the fuse and it blew again right away. What should I do?
This is a sign that the underlying electrical fault that blew the original fuse hasn't been addressed. Unlike a thermal fuse blowing from airflow restriction, a repeat blow on this type of fuse points to an ongoing short circuit or wiring problem elsewhere in the dryer. Stop and have a qualified technician trace and repair the fault rather than continuing to replace fuses, since the underlying issue could pose a safety risk if left unresolved.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical rating and fuse class of the original WE1M1002 power fuse used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, and RCA dryers.

Genuine OEM WPW10453947 Washer or Dryer Control Knob
The Genuine OEM WPW10453947 is a factory-original control knob used on both washers and dryers across the Whirlpool platform — the same knob design is shared between select top-load washer cycle-selector dials and dryer cycle/timer dials, depending on the model. It mounts onto the control shaft on the console and is what the user grips to select a wash or dry cycle. Over time these knobs commonly crack, the D-shaped shaft-grip inside wears out and starts spinning freely on the shaft, or the knob's pointer/indicator fades or breaks off.
As the genuine Whirlpool part, it matches the factory shaft profile, detent feel, and indicator marking of the original equipment, so there's no fit or cosmetic mismatch. It directly replaces W10453947, 2304653, AP5607287, AWP50246, EAP3632979, PD00008425, PS3632979. Installs in under 5 minutes with no tools required — it's a simple push-on friction fit in most applications.
Quick Answer
The Genuine OEM WPW10453947 Washer or Dryer Control Knob fixes Whirlpool, Amana, Admiral, Inglis, Roper, Kenmore, Crosley, and Maytag washers and dryers with a cracked, spinning, or missing cycle-selector knob. This is the factory-original Whirlpool knob — not an aftermarket equivalent — and is used on both washer and dryer control panels depending on model. Replaces W10453947, 2304653, AP5607287, AWP50246, EAP3632979, PD00008425, PS3632979. Classic symptom: knob spins freely on the shaft without turning the dial, or won't stay in the selected cycle position.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Control knob spins freely on the shaft without engaging the dial underneath
Knob is cracked, chipped, or has broken retaining tabs on the back
Knob won't stay pointed at the selected cycle

Installation Notes
ℹ️ No Tools Required — Unplug Appliance First Disconnect power to the washer or dryer before beginning. Note the current cycle position of the old knob before removing it, so you can align the new one the same way. Grip the old knob firmly and pull straight outward, away from the console, to release it from the friction fit on the shaft. If it's cracked and difficult to grip, work a flat-blade screwdriver gently behind the knob's edge to help pry it free, taking care not to damage the console. Line up the new WPW10453947 knob's D-shaped (or splined) center opening with the flat side of the control shaft, and press straight in until it seats fully against the console. Restore power and test that the knob turns smoothly through each cycle position and the indicator lines up correctly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this knob for a washer or a dryer?
Both — this is a shared control knob design used on select Whirlpool-platform washers and dryers, depending on the model. The knob itself is identical; what it controls (wash cycle vs. dry cycle) depends on which appliance and console it's installed in. Confirm your appliance's model number before ordering to make sure this is the correct knob for your specific control panel.
My knob spins freely and doesn't change the cycle — is this the fix?
Yes, in most cases. This happens when the knob's internal shaft-grip (the D-shaped or splined opening that mates with the control shaft) wears out or cracks, so the knob spins independently of the shaft underneath it. Replacing the knob restores a snug grip on the shaft so turning it actually moves the selector.
Do I need any tools to install this?
No — it's a simple push-on friction fit. Pull the old knob straight off the shaft (a flat-blade screwdriver can help pry a stuck or cracked one loose) and press the new one on, matching the shaft's flat side to the knob's opening. No screws or fasteners are involved.
Is this a genuine Whirlpool part or an aftermarket equivalent?
This is the genuine, factory-original Whirlpool knob — not an aftermarket equivalent. It matches the original shaft profile, detent feel, and cycle-indicator markings, so there's no mismatch in fit or appearance versus the original equipment.

Y303836 Dryer Genuine Blower Wheel
The Y303836 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM dryer blower wheel for Whirlpool, Maytag, and Jenn-Air dryers, and also fits select Admiral, Amana, Caloric, Crosley, Estate, Hardwick, and Inglis models. This squirrel-cage fan wheel attaches to the drive motor shaft, blowing air through the drum and out through the exhaust vent to carry moisture out of the dryer during each cycle.
Includes a center mounting clamp, measuring approximately 7-1/2" in diameter and 3-3/8" deep. Over time, the wheel's hub can crack from wear where it clamps onto the motor shaft, or the wheel can strip and stop spinning correctly. Symptoms of a failing blower wheel include the dryer taking too long to dry clothes, not tumbling, making unusually loud noises, or not heating properly since restricted airflow affects the whole drying process. It directly replaces Y312913, 1245880, 3-12913, 3-3836, 303836, 312913, AH2200270, EA2200270, EAP2200270, K35-239, AP4294048, AWP50724, PD00002423, PS2200270.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Inspect The Wheel Hub For Cracks During Removal Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning. Wear work gloves. Open the dryer door and remove the lint filter. Remove the two screws at the top of the ductwork leading to the blower wheel, then pull off the ductwork and set it aside. Working from inside the dryer, unplug the wiring harness from the fan motor. Unscrew the old blower wheel from the motor shaft with a flathead screwdriver. Before discarding the old wheel, take a moment to inspect its hub for hairline cracks, especially where it clamps onto the motor shaft — this is a common early warning sign of failure even if the wheel still spins. Align the new Y303836 onto the motor shaft and secure it with a flathead screwdriver. Reconnect the wiring harness to the fan motor. Replace the ductwork over the top of the blower wheel and secure the two screws. Reinstall the lint filter and plug the dryer back in. Test the dryer to confirm quiet, smooth airflow and normal drying performance. Tools needed: multi screwdriver, flathead screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer takes too long to dry clothes. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms of a failing blower wheel. Since this wheel is what moves air through the drum and out the exhaust vent, a stripped or cracked wheel can no longer move air effectively, leaving moisture trapped in the drum and extending drying times significantly.
I'm replacing my dryer motor. Should I check the blower wheel too?
Yes, it's worth a close look. One customer replacing a 30-year-old dryer's motor found cracks in the blower wheel hub where it clamps onto the motor shaft, along with rubbing marks in the blower housing — signs the wheel would have failed completely very soon on its own. Since you're already accessing this area for a motor replacement, inspecting the wheel's hub for similar cracking is a quick and worthwhile check.
My dryer isn't heating properly. Could the blower wheel be involved?
Yes, indirectly. A stripped or malfunctioning blower wheel that isn't spinning correctly can restrict airflow throughout the dryer, which affects the whole drying process, including how effectively heat is distributed and vented, even though the wheel itself isn't a heating component.
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 fan design, dimensions, and mounting clamp of the blower wheel originally installed in your dryer.

WP694089 Dryer Genuine OEM Blower Wheel
The WP694089 is a Genuine OEM replacement dryer blower wheel compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Roper, Estate, Crosley, Inglis, Caloric, Hardwick, and Glenwood 29-inch dryers with a lint filter on top. The blower wheel works together with the drive motor to create the airflow that makes drying possible — it draws heated air through the heating element, pushes it into and through the drum to evaporate moisture from your clothes, and exhausts it out through the vent system. Without a properly functioning blower wheel, airflow drops, drying times increase dramatically, and the dryer may overheat.
Measures 8-5/8" in diameter. Mounts on the motor's blower shaft with left-hand threads — to remove the old blower wheel, turn it clockwise (the reverse of standard threading). This blower wheel fits dryers where the motor is mounted in the rear of the cabinet, not the front. Common causes of failure: the internal sleeve wears out over time, allowing the wheel to wobble on the motor shaft; lint, socks, or small clothing articles escape past the lint filter and jam the wheel; or the plastic fins crack and break from age or debris impact. It directly replaces WP694089, WP694089VP, AP6010602, 279500, 279711, 299678, 338840, 343939, 343941, 686172, 695499, DE601, PS11743785, AH383953, EA383953, and PS383953. Installs in 30–60 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The WP694089 Dryer Blower Wheel fixes Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Roper, Estate, and Admiral 29" dryers that take too long to dry, make loud thumping/rattling/scraping noises, have weak airflow, or won't tumble. 8-5/8" diameter. Left-hand threads (turn clockwise to remove). Fits rear-mounted motor dryers with lint filter on top.

Check for trapped lint, socks, or debris before replacing — a jammed wheel may not be broken.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer takes too long to dry clothes — reduced airflow from a worn or damaged blower wheel
Loud thumping, rattling, or scraping noise during operation — debris caught in the wheel or broken fins
Weak or no airflow from the exhaust vent — wheel wobbling or not spinning properly
Clothes still damp at the end of the cycle — inadequate air circulation
Dryer overheating — restricted airflow causing heat buildup
Blower wheel wobbling on the motor shaft — worn internal sleeve
Sock, small garment, or lint clump jammed in the blower wheel
Blower wheel fins cracked or broken from debris impact or age
Dryer running but drum not turning — severely damaged wheel preventing motor from spinning

Installation Notes
⚠️ Disconnect Power Before Starting — 240V Circuit (Electric) or Gas Line (Gas) — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power at the breaker before beginning — electric dryers operate on a 240V circuit. For gas dryers, also shut off the gas supply. Wear work gloves and safety glasses. Pull the dryer away from the wall. Access the blower wheel by removing the dryer's back panel — remove the screws securing the rear panel and set it aside. Locate the blower housing at the bottom rear of the dryer, connected to the motor. The blower wheel is inside this housing, mounted on the motor's blower shaft. Remove the blower housing cover or clamp to expose the wheel. Important: the blower wheel has left-hand threads. To remove the old blower wheel, turn it clockwise (the opposite of standard threading). If the wheel is stuck on the shaft, hold the motor pulley on the other end of the shaft to prevent it from turning while you unscrew the wheel. If the old wheel's plastic hub has seized on the shaft from age, you may need to use a flat-blade screwdriver to gently pry it — some customers report the old wheel breaks apart during removal, which is fine since you're replacing it. Before installing the new wheel, clean out any lint, debris, socks, or clothing articles from the blower housing. Thread the new 694089 blower wheel onto the motor shaft counterclockwise (remember: left-hand threads — counterclockwise tightens). Tighten firmly by hand. Reassemble the blower housing, reinstall the rear panel, push the dryer back into place, and restore power. Run a test cycle and check airflow at the exhaust vent. Tools needed: Nut driver, Phillips screwdriver, flat-blade screwdriver, work gloves, safety glasses.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer is making a loud thumping or rattling noise — is the blower wheel the cause?
It's one of the most common causes of dryer noise, yes. There are two main ways the blower wheel causes noise: first, lint, socks, or small clothing articles can escape past the lint filter and get caught in the wheel, where they hit the housing with each rotation — producing a rhythmic thumping or scraping sound. Second, the wheel's internal sleeve can wear out over time, allowing the wheel to wobble loosely on the motor shaft, which creates a rattling or vibrating noise. Before ordering a new wheel, check for trapped debris first — pull the back panel and inspect the blower housing. Clearing a stuck sock may solve the problem immediately. If the wheel wobbles freely on the shaft or has cracked/broken fins, it needs replacement.
Why does the blower wheel have left-hand threads?
The left-hand (reverse) threading is by design. The motor shaft spins in a direction that would naturally loosen a standard right-hand threaded wheel over time. By using left-hand threads, the motor's rotation actually tightens the wheel onto the shaft during operation, preventing it from working loose while the dryer runs. This means: turn clockwise to remove the old wheel (opposite of what you'd expect), and turn counterclockwise to tighten the new wheel onto the shaft. Many customers get stuck at this step because they instinctively turn counterclockwise to loosen — so if the wheel seems stuck, try turning it the other way first.
My dryer takes forever to dry — is the blower wheel the issue?
It can be, but check the easier things first. Long drying times are usually caused by restricted airflow, and the most common culprit is a clogged or kinked exhaust vent hose — clean the entire vent path from the dryer to the outside wall first. Also clean the lint filter and check the lint trap housing for buildup. If the vent system is clear and drying times are still long, the blower wheel is a strong candidate: a worn sleeve that lets the wheel wobble reduces its ability to move air efficiently, and cracked fins reduce airflow even if the wheel still spins. You can test by running the dryer and checking the airflow at the outside exhaust vent — weak or no airflow with a clear vent path points to the blower wheel.
Does this fit dryers with the motor in the front?
No — the 694089 blower wheel is designed for 29" Whirlpool-platform dryers where the motor is mounted in the rear of the cabinet. If your dryer has the motor in the front, it uses a different blower wheel. The easiest way to confirm: look at the back of the dryer — if you can see the motor and blower housing when the rear panel is removed, the motor is in the rear and this wheel fits (verify your model number too). If the motor is accessible from the front, this is not the correct part. Contact our support team with your model number and we'll confirm.
The old blower wheel is stuck on the shaft — how do I get it off?
First, make sure you're turning it the right direction — this has left-hand threads, so turn clockwise to loosen (the opposite of normal). If it's truly stuck from age or corrosion: hold the motor pulley on the other end of the shaft with one hand (or use pliers wrapped in a cloth) to keep the shaft from spinning, then turn the blower wheel clockwise with the other hand. If the plastic hub has seized, a flat-blade screwdriver can help gently pry it. In many cases, an old seized blower wheel will crack and break apart during removal — that's perfectly fine since you're replacing it anyway. Just make sure all the old pieces are cleared from the blower housing before installing the new wheel.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM replacement part. It is a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, this original WP694089 blower wheel used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and related 29" dryers.

279827 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Drive Motor
The 279827 is a Genuine OEM Whirlpool replacement dryer drive motor with pre-attached pulley, compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Estate, and Kenmore dryers. The drive motor is the component that powers everything that moves in your dryer — it turns the drum belt (which rotates the drum to tumble clothes) and simultaneously drives the blower wheel (which pushes heated air through the drum and out the exhaust vent). When the motor fails, the dryer either won't start, won't tumble, stops mid-cycle, or makes loud humming, buzzing, or grinding noises.
This is a dual-shaft motor: the drive shaft (1-3/4" long) connects to the drum belt via the pre-attached pulley, and the blower shaft (1-3/4" long) drives the blower wheel. The pulley is pre-attached and is not available separately — if your old motor's pulley is worn, this replacement includes a new one. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications, the 279827 is one of the most widely used dryer motors across the Whirlpool platform, replacing over 70 legacy part numbers spanning decades of production. Key cross-references include W10448892, W10396029, W10194250, 8066206, 3395654, 3398046, 3391888, 3395652, AP3094245, PS334304, and EAP334304. Includes the motor assembly, two 1/8" insulated female terminals, and instructions. Before replacing the motor, check the thermal fuse (electric dryers) and door switch first — a blown fuse or failed switch produces identical no-start symptoms and is a far cheaper fix. Installs in 45–90 minutes with basic hand tools.

Important — Before Replacing the Motor: A dryer that won't start can be caused by several components that are far cheaper and easier to replace than the motor. Before ordering, check the thermal fuse (electric dryers — test for continuity with a multimeter), the door switch (test for continuity when pressed), and the start switch. All three produce identical no-start symptoms. Only replace the motor after ruling out these common causes — a motor replacement is a significant repair, and it's far cheaper to replace a $10 thermal fuse than a $150+ motor. Always verify your dryer model number before ordering.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Disconnect Power Before Starting — 240V Circuit (Electric) or Gas Line (Gas) — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power at the breaker before beginning — electric dryers operate on a 240V circuit and there is a serious risk of electrical shock. For gas dryers, also shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve. Wear work gloves and safety glasses. Pull the dryer away from the wall. Remove the lint screen and the screws beneath it. For most Whirlpool-platform dryers, remove the top panel by releasing the spring clips at the front, then detach the front panel by removing the screws at the top corners. Disconnect the door switch wires and set the front panel aside. Support the drum and slide it forward to access the motor at the bottom rear. Remove the drum belt from the motor pulley and idler pulley. Photograph the motor's wiring connections before disconnecting. Disconnect the electrical connections from the motor. Remove the blower wheel from the old motor's blower shaft — this typically requires a clamp or clip removal (the blower wheel threads off counterclockwise on many models). Remove the motor mounting clip/bracket and lift out the old motor. Install the new 279827 motor in the same position. Transfer the blower wheel onto the new motor's blower shaft and secure it. Reinstall the motor mounting clip/bracket. Reconnect the electrical connections using the included insulated female terminals if needed (match your photos). Re-route the drum belt around the drum, through the idler pulley, and onto the motor pulley. Reassemble the front panel, top panel, and lint screen. Restore power (and gas for gas dryers) and run a test cycle — confirm the drum spins smoothly and heated air flows through the drum. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, socket/ratchet set, putty knife (for spring clips), needle-nose pliers, work gloves, safety glasses.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer won't start — is the motor definitely the problem?
Not necessarily — and this is important because a motor replacement is a significant repair. A dryer that won't start can be caused by several components that are far cheaper and easier to replace. Before ordering the motor, check these first: 1) Thermal fuse (electric dryers) — a blown thermal fuse is the single most common cause of a no-start condition. Test for continuity with a multimeter; if it reads open, replace the fuse (~$10). 2) Door switch — test for continuity when pressed; if it's failed, the dryer won't start as a safety measure. 3) Start switch — if pressing the start button produces no response at all, the start switch itself may have failed. Only replace the motor after ruling these out. Signs that point specifically to the motor: a loud humming or buzzing when you press start (motor trying but can't turn), grinding or squealing from the motor area, or a motor that runs intermittently and cuts out.
Why does the motor hum but the drum doesn't turn?
A humming motor that won't turn is a classic sign of a seized or failing motor — the windings are energized (hence the hum) but the shaft can't rotate because the bearings have failed or the motor is mechanically stuck. This can also be caused by the blower wheel being jammed with lint or debris, preventing the shaft from turning — so before condemning the motor, check the blower wheel for obstructions. If the blower wheel spins freely and the motor still hums without turning, the motor has failed and needs replacement. Note: a humming motor that won't start will eventually trip the thermal fuse as a safety measure, so you may need to replace both the motor and the thermal fuse.
Why are there so many cross-reference part numbers for this motor?
The 279827 is one of the most extensively cross-referenced parts in the Whirlpool catalog because it's been the standard dryer drive motor across the Whirlpool platform for decades — spanning Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Roper, Estate, Kenmore, and many other brands that Whirlpool manufactures for. Over the years, the motor has been assigned different part numbers by different brands, distributors, and catalog systems (W10448892, W10396029, 8066206, 3395654, 3398046, etc.), but they all point to the same motor. If your old motor shows ANY of those numbers, the 279827 is the correct replacement.
Does this motor come with the pulley?
Yes — the pulley is pre-attached to the motor and is not available separately. The pulley is what the drum belt rides on, transferring the motor's rotation to the drum. If your old motor's pulley was worn or grooved (a common cause of belt slipping and squealing), the new 279827 includes a fresh pulley. You will need to transfer the blower wheel from your old motor to the new one — the blower wheel is not included.
Should I replace the belt and idler pulley while changing the motor?
It's strongly recommended. When you replace the motor, the dryer is already apart and both the drum belt and idler pulley are right there in your hands. All three components wear from the same friction and heat cycles, and installing a new motor with a worn belt or a seized idler pulley puts unnecessary stress on the new motor from day one. Many technicians replace the belt, idler pulley, and drum support rollers as standard maintenance whenever the dryer is opened for a motor replacement — the combined cost of these parts is modest compared to the labor of disassembling the dryer again later.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications. It is the exact same drive motor with pulley installed in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Estate, and Kenmore dryers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
