XPARTCO WE01X20374 Dryer Timer Knob
The XPARTCO WE01X20374 is an aftermarket replacement timer knob for GE dryers, and also fits select Hotpoint and RCA models. Located on the control panel, this knob mounts onto the timer's D-shaped shaft and lets you set desired drying times and select additional functions like air fluff or wrinkle release cycles.
White in color, with a D-shaped opening for the timer shaft. Causes of a faulty timer knob include wear from repeated grasping and twisting over years of use, or exposure to high dryer temperatures degrading the knob material over time. Symptoms of a damaged timer knob include difficulty rotating the knob smoothly to desired time settings, the dryer not initiating cycles properly based on knob position, a loose or wobbling knob that could fall off, or cracking, chipping, or discoloration on the knob exterior. It directly replaces WE01X20374, WE1M856, 3276177, WE1M589, AGE25562, AP5805160, EAP8769912, PD00023120, PS8769912.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet before beginning. Remove the old knob by pulling it straight off the control shaft — no tools are typically required. Align the D-shaped socket on the new WE01X20374 with the flat side of the timer shaft, then press the new knob firmly onto the shaft until it's fully seated. Restore power and test that the knob turns the timer setting correctly through its full range, confirming the dryer starts and progresses through the cycle as expected. Tools needed: none typically required.
Frequently Asked Questions
My knob spins freely or feels loose. Is this the right part?
Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms this knob resolves. If the knob's D-shaped socket has worn out or become stripped, it can no longer grip the timer's shaft properly, letting the knob spin, wobble, or feel loose without actually turning the internal timer mechanism.
I was told my knob replacement threw off my drying time. Is WE01X20374 the fix?
It can be, depending on your model. GE's own support has addressed a case where a similarly-numbered knob, WE1M654, was installed on the wrong model and caused the cycle to cut off before reaching the true "off" position — the customer was told the correct part for their model was WE01X20374. If your timing seems off after installing a different knob, double-check whether WE01X20374 is the correct part for your specific model.
Is this a difficult repair?
No, it's one of the simplest dryer repairs — the old knob pulls straight off the shaft and the new one presses straight on, with no tools needed.
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 size, D-shaped shaft fit, and white finish of the original WE01X20374 timer knob used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, and RCA dryers.

Genuine OEM WPW10446920 Dryer Push-To-Start Switch
The Genuine OEM WPW10446920 is a factory-original push-to-start switch manufactured by Whirlpool for use in Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Kenmore, Inglis, and other Whirlpool-built dryers that use a momentary push-button start control rather than a pull/rotary start knob. Pressing and releasing the button sends a signal to the timer or control board that begins the drying cycle; the switch itself does not stay latched, so the control electronics — not the switch — keep the dryer running after you let go.
When this switch fails, the dryer typically has power (the display and drum lights, if equipped, still work) but pressing Start does nothing, or the button feels mushy and requires several presses to register. As the genuine Whirlpool part, it ships with the exact factory-specified contacts, housing, and three-terminal wiring connector used on original production, so there's no fit or function guesswork. It directly replaces W10446920, 4446934, AP6021533, AWP51175, EAP11754857, OEM18064608, PD00038667, PS11754857. Installs in 15–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The Genuine OEM WPW10446920 Dryer Push-To-Start Switch fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Kenmore, and Inglis dryers that won't start when the Start button is pressed, even though the dryer otherwise has power. This is the factory-original Whirlpool switch — not an aftermarket equivalent — with a 3-terminal wiring connector. Replaces W10446920, 4446934, AP6021533, AWP51175, EAP11754857, OEM18064608, PD00038667, PS11754857. Classic symptom: display and lights work, but pressing Start produces no response at all.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer won't start when the Start button is pressed
Start button feels loose, mushy, or requires multiple presses to register
Dryer has power (lights/display work) but the motor never engages
Intermittent starting — sometimes works, sometimes doesn't
Audible click from the button with no response from the dryer
Start switch visibly cracked, stuck, or not returning after being pressed

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning. Access the control panel — on most models this means removing a few screws along the top or rear of the console, or releasing spring clips, and tilting or lifting the panel to expose the back of the start switch. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting. Unplug the 3-terminal wiring connector from the old switch — note the connector orientation. Depress the retaining tabs or remove the mounting screw(s) holding the switch in the control panel and push it out from the back. Install the new WPW10446920 switch into the same opening until it snaps or seats into place. Reconnect the wiring connector, matching your photos. Reassemble the control panel and secure it with its screws or clips. Plug the dryer back in and test by pressing Start — confirm the dryer begins its cycle. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat-blade screwdriver (for spring clips, if applicable).
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer has power but won't start when I press the button — is this the part?
This is the classic symptom of a failed push-to-start switch. If the display and any lights still work but pressing Start produces no response — not even a click or hum from the motor — the start switch is the most common cause. If you do hear a hum or click but the drum still doesn't turn, also check the thermal fuse and cycling thermostat, since a tripped thermal fuse can sometimes present with similar no-start symptoms.
Will this fit my dryer?
WPW10446920 and its cross-reference numbers fit a range of Whirlpool-built dryers across several brands, but only models with a push-to-start button — not a rotary or pull-to-start knob. Confirm fit using your dryer's exact model number before ordering, since the two start mechanisms are not interchangeable.
Is this a genuine Whirlpool part or an aftermarket equivalent?
This is the genuine, factory-original Whirlpool part — not an aftermarket equivalent. It ships with the same contacts, housing, and 3-terminal connector used in original production, so there's no guesswork on fit, feel, or electrical rating.
Do I need any special tools to install this?
No — just a Phillips screwdriver and, on some models, a putty knife or flat-blade screwdriver to release the control panel's spring clips. No soldering or wire splicing is required; the switch connects via its original 3-terminal plug.

XPARTCO 3387134 Dryer Cycling Thermostat
The XPARTCO 3387134 is an aftermarket replacement dryer cycling thermostat, the operating thermostat that controls drying temperature. It switches the heating element off when the dryer reaches its set temperature and back on after it cools, keeping the inside of the dryer at a steady temperature throughout the cycle. This one is rated L155-25: it cuts out at approximately 155°F and cycles back on once the temperature drops about 25°F.
When a cycling thermostat fails, the dryer may stop heating, run too hot, or keep heating after the drum has stopped. This is a direct-fit aftermarket replacement for the original Whirlpool WP3387134, and it fits a wide range of Whirlpool-built dryers sold under the Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Roper, Crosley, Estate, Amana, and other brand names.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 3387134 Cycling Thermostat fixes a Whirlpool-built dryer that isn't heating, runs too hot, or has inconsistent drying temperatures. Rated L155-25, it cycles the heating element off at about 155°F and back on after a 25°F drop. Classic symptom: clothes come out damp or the dryer runs excessively hot, with no sign of a clogged vent.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer not heating
Dryer running too hot
Inconsistent drying temperatures
Heat staying on after the drum has stopped
Dryer won't start or the timer doesn't advance, if the thermostat has failed

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing
Unplug the dryer or switch off its circuit breaker before beginning, and shut off the gas supply first on gas models. Wear work gloves, as the cabinet edges are sharp. Remove the panel that gives access to the heater housing per your model's service guide, note the wire terminal positions, and disconnect them from the old thermostat. Remove the thermostat, install the new one in the same position, and reconnect the wires. A screwdriver and needle-nose pliers are typically all you need. Before closing the dryer, clean the lint trap and check the exhaust vent for restrictions, since poor airflow is a common cause of overheating.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer isn't heating or runs too hot. Is this the part I need?
A failed cycling thermostat can cause either symptom. It may stay open and prevent heat, or stay closed and let the dryer overheat. Check for a clogged vent and test the thermostat for continuity before replacing it.
What's the difference between the cycling thermostat and the high limit thermostat?
The cycling thermostat controls normal drying temperature by switching the heating element on and off. The high limit thermostat and thermal fuse are separate safety devices that cut power if the dryer overheats. This listing is for the cycling thermostat only.
How do I test this thermostat?
With the dryer unplugged and the wires removed, check for continuity across the terminals with a multimeter at room temperature. A properly working cycling thermostat should show continuity when cool. No continuity means it has failed.
Will this fit my dryer?
It fits many Whirlpool-built dryers, but the model list above is only a sample. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.

XPARTCO DC47-00018A Dryer Hi Limit Thermostat
The XPARTCO DC47-00018A is an aftermarket replacement cycling high-limit thermostat for Samsung and select Kenmore electric dryers. This is a genuine, automatically resetting thermostat — not a one-time fuse. It monitors temperature in the heating circuit and opens to cut power to the heating element at approximately 260°F, protecting the dryer from overheating. Once the temperature drops to around 210°F, it closes again on its own, letting the dryer resume heating without any part replacement needed.
This thermostat works alongside a downstream thermal fuse (such as our DC96-00887C listing) in the same overheat-protection circuit. If this thermostat is cycling excessively, tripping prematurely, or failing to regulate temperature correctly, it can put stress on that thermal fuse, sometimes causing it to blow as a last-resort safety measure. Symptoms of a failing high-limit thermostat include no heat or insufficient heat, drying that takes too long, or the dryer shutting off too soon before a load is fully dry. It directly replaces 35001092, WP35001092, 1122485, AP4201898, PS4205217, EAP2430930, PS2430930, and AP6008682.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO DC47-00018A Dryer Hi Limit Thermostat fixes Samsung and select Kenmore electric dryers with no heat or insufficient heat, drying that takes too long, or premature shutoff before a load is fully dry. Opens at approximately 260°F, resets automatically around 210°F. Replaces 35001092, WP35001092, 1122485, AP4201898, PS4205217, EAP2430930, PS2430930, AP6008682. This is a resettable thermostat, not a fuse — it does not need replacement after each trip. It's a different component from our DC96-00887C thermal fuse listing, though the two are often checked together.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer has no heat or insufficient heat
Drying takes too long to complete a cycle
Dryer shuts off too soon, before clothes are fully dry
Timer will not advance through the cycle
Dryer that stopped working suddenly after running unusually hot
Dryer with a history of repeated downstream thermal fuse failures

DV400EWHDWR/AA
DVE50M7450W/A3
Note — resettable thermostat, not a fuse: This DC47-00018A is a true cycling thermostat that resets itself automatically. Our DC96-00887C listing, despite frequently being labeled a "thermostat" on other marketplaces, is actually a one-time thermal fuse mounted separately on the blower housing — it cannot reset and must be replaced once blown. The two are different device types serving the same circuit. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the rear panel, near the heater duct and blower housing area where this thermostat is mounted. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since this thermostat can be positioned close to other similar-looking components in the same circuit. Remove the old thermostat from its mounting position, noting orientation, and disconnect its wiring. Install the new DC47-00018A in the same position, reconnecting wiring exactly as photographed. Reassemble the panel, restore power, and run a full test cycle to confirm normal, consistent heating with no premature shutoffs. Tools needed: Phillips or nut driver (model-dependent), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to reset this thermostat after it trips, or replace it?
Neither, in normal operation — this is a genuine cycling thermostat that resets itself automatically once the dryer cools to around 210°F. You should only need to replace it if it has failed outright (stuck open, stuck closed, or no longer switching at the correct temperatures), not simply because it tripped once during normal operation.
My dryer shuts off before the load is fully dry. Is that this part?
It's a strong possibility. If this high-limit thermostat is tripping prematurely — opening at a lower temperature than it should — the dryer can cut heat and end the cycle early even though the load isn't actually dry yet. This is one of the more common symptoms this thermostat addresses.
My thermal fuse keeps blowing. Could this thermostat be the underlying cause?
Yes, this is worth investigating. This thermostat and the downstream thermal fuse (our DC96-00887C listing) protect the same circuit at different points. If this thermostat isn't regulating temperature correctly — cycling excessively or failing to catch a temperature spike — the thermal fuse can end up blowing repeatedly as the last line of defense. If you've replaced the fuse more than once, checking or replacing this thermostat at the same time is a reasonable next step.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and opening/reset temperatures of the original DC47-00018A high-limit thermostat used in compatible Samsung and Kenmore electric dryers.
