W10838313 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Freezer Wire Shelf (Lower)
The W10838313 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM wire shelf that sits at the floor of the freezer section on Whirlpool upright freezers. This is the lowermost shelf in the compartment, sliding into grooves molded into the freezer's interior walls to provide a sturdy, ventilated surface for storing frozen goods. Unlike a solid shelf, the open wire construction lets cold air circulate freely around whatever is stored on it, which helps maintain even freezing throughout the compartment.
Measuring approximately 12" x 25" (11.65"W x 24.55"L), this shelf is made of coated wire with a white finish. Over years of loading and unloading groceries, the wire can weaken, bend, or separate from its retaining clips, and constant weight can eventually cause sagging or wobbling. A worn shelf typically shows up as wobbling under load, difficulty locking securely into its groove position, or wires that have visibly pulled loose from their retention brackets. It directly replaces AP5988764, W10581579, 4363361, PS11727969, and W10837264.

Installation Notes
This is one of the simplest repairs in the freezer — no tools, no wiring, nothing to disconnect. Open the freezer door and remove any food from the affected shelf position. Slide the old shelf forward and out along its grooves until it clears the cabinet. Line up the new W10838313 shelf with the same grooves at the bottom of the freezer compartment, and slide it in until it seats fully at the back. Close the door and confirm the shelf sits level and locks securely before reloading it with food.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need the upper or lower shelf?
Check which position in your freezer has the wobbling, sagging, or damaged shelf — this W10838313 listing is specifically the lower shelf that sits at the floor of the freezer compartment. The upper shelf is a separate part, W10838310, and it's noticeably wider (15.75" versus this shelf's narrower width). If you're not certain, measure your existing shelf before ordering, since customers have accidentally ordered the wrong position in the past.
Do I need any tools to install this?
No. This is a tool-free repair — slide the old shelf out along its grooves, then slide the new one in until it seats. It's one of the easiest parts to replace in the entire freezer.
My shelf wobbles but isn't broken. Is it still worth replacing?
If the wobble is due to weakened or bent wires rather than just needing to be reseated in its grooves, replacement is the more reliable fix. Try removing the shelf and reseating it fully first — if it still wobbles or won't lock securely after that, the wire has likely weakened enough that a new shelf is the better long-term solution.
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 dimensions, wire gauge, and coating of the lower freezer shelf originally installed in your Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, or related upright freezer.

XPARTCO 279769 Dryer Thermostat Kit
The XPARTCO 279769 is an aftermarket replacement thermal cut-off and high-limit thermostat kit for Whirlpool, Kenmore, Roper, KitchenAid, Maytag, Amana, Estate, Crosley, and Admiral electric dryers. This kit bundles two components that guard against overheating at different thresholds: the 3390291 high-limit thermostat (rated L250-80F) monitors internal temperature and interrupts power at approximately 250°F to prevent overheating, then resets itself automatically once the dryer cools — no replacement needed after each trip. The 3977394 thermal cut-off fuse is the backup: rated at 352°F, it's a one-time safety device that permanently opens the circuit if temperatures climb high enough that the thermostat alone didn't prevent an overheat.
These two parts are sold together and should be replaced together as a set, since they protect the same circuit and tend to be stressed by the same underlying problem. Whirlpool's own guidance is direct: when the thermal cut-off fails, it usually indicates a venting problem, and failing to correct that airflow issue will cause repetitive failures even with new parts installed. Symptoms include the dryer not heating, clothes coming out extremely hot, or the dryer not running at all. This kit is commonly used alongside heating element 4391960. It directly replaces 279769, 279548, 2796769, 279769VP, 2821, 2004, 3387812, 3389946, 3398671, 3977394, 695563, 80001, SET184, SET198, TJSET198, ET184, AP3094224, AH334278, EA334278, EAP334278, PD00002485, PS334278, WP3390291, AP6008306, 3390291, 696397, and PS11741441. As an aftermarket replacement, the 279769 kit is built to OEM-equivalent quality standards.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 279769 Dryer Thermostat Kit fixes Whirlpool, Kenmore, Roper, KitchenAid, Maytag, Amana, Estate, Crosley, and Admiral electric dryers with no heat, no power at all, or clothes coming out dangerously hot. Includes the 3390291 high-limit thermostat (250°F, auto-resetting) and the 3977394 thermal cut-off fuse (352°F, one-time). Replaces 279548, 2796769, 279769VP, 3387812, 3389946, 3398671, 3977394, 695563, 80001, AP3094224, PS334278, WP3390291, AP6008306, 3390291, 696397, PS11741441. Always inspect and clean the exhaust venting when replacing this kit — a blown thermal fuse is a symptom of restricted airflow, and skipping the vent check leads to repeat failures.

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, near the heating element and blower housing where both components are mounted. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since the thermostat and fuse can be easy to swap positions by mistake. Remove each old component from its mounting position, noting orientation, and disconnect its wiring. Before reassembling, 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. When the thermal cut-off fails, it usually indicates a venting problem, and failing to correct that airflow issue will cause repetitive failures even with these new parts installed. Install the new 3390291 thermostat and 3977394 thermal fuse from this kit in the same positions as the parts they replace, 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
My clothes are coming out extremely hot, hot enough to burn my hands. Is this the right kit?
Yes, this is a documented symptom this kit addresses. If the high-limit thermostat fails to regulate temperature correctly, the dryer can run far hotter than it should, producing dangerously hot clothing at the end of a cycle. Whirlpool's own parts support has specifically pointed customers with this exact complaint toward this kit. Stop using the dryer if you notice this symptom and replace both components promptly.
Why do I need to replace both the thermostat and the fuse together?
These two parts protect the same circuit at different thresholds and tend to fail from the same underlying cause. If the high-limit thermostat isn't regulating temperature correctly, the thermal fuse often ends up blowing as the backup safety measure. Replacing only one risks the other failing again shortly after, so they're sold and serviced together as a set.
I replaced this kit and the dryer failed again. What should I check?
This is a strong sign the underlying cause — almost always restricted airflow — was never addressed. 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. Failing to correct a venting issue will cause repetitive failures of this kit even when it's brand new.
Should I replace the heating element at the same time?
It's worth considering if your dryer's heating element (commonly 4391960 on compatible models) is original and has been running alongside a failing thermostat, since sustained overheating can stress the element as well. It's not required, but since you'll already have the panel open for this repair, it's a reasonable time to inspect the element for visible damage.
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 temperature thresholds and mounting configuration of the original 279769 high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off fuse kit used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Roper, KitchenAid, Maytag, Amana, Estate, Crosley, and Admiral electric dryers.

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. Replaces 3392519, WP3392519VP, AP6008325, 3388651, 694511, ET401, PS11741460, EAP11741460, AH11741460, EA11741460, PD00002311, G4AP0500, 80005. Always inspect and clean the dryer venting when replacing this fuse — a blown fuse is a symptom of restricted airflow, and installing a new fuse without fixing the vent will likely blow it again.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer won't start at all — no lights, no tumble, no response to any button
Dryer that stopped working suddenly, especially after running unusually hot
Dryer runs a short time then shuts off completely and won't restart
Repeated blown fuses on a dryer with a known venting or airflow restriction
Clothes coming out extremely hot right before the dryer stopped working
Dryer that recently smelled like burning or overheating before failing
Continuity test shows an open circuit across the old fuse

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.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Microwave Before Starting Unplug the microwave before beginning this repair. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Locate the mounting screws or tabs securing the old vent grille in place, typically along the top or front edge of the unit depending on your model. Support the grille as you remove the mounting hardware, since a partially broken grille can shift or fall once released. Remove the old grille fully. Position the new W10245218 in the same location, aligning it with the mounting points, and secure it with the original screws or clips, taking care not to overtighten and crack the new plastic mounting tabs. Restore power and confirm the grille sits flush and securely in place with no gaps affecting the ventilation airflow. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My vent grille is cracked and hanging loose. What caused this?
This is a common failure mode, often caused by someone accidentally pulling, leaning on, or bumping the grille — enough force can crack the plastic screw mounting tabs, leaving the grille hanging or detached even though the rest of the microwave is unaffected. One customer described exactly this scenario: a guest accidentally pulled on the top grille vent, cracking the plastic screw tap and leaving it hanging.
How do I know I'm ordering the right color and part number?
Whirlpool sells several vent grilles that look very similar across different models, in both black and white finishes. This W10245218 is specifically the black-finish version. Compare your old grille's color and check your full model number against the compatibility list, or check the part number printed on your old grille if it's visible, before ordering.
Do I need any special tools to replace this grille?
No, this is a straightforward repair with basic hand tools — typically just a Phillips screwdriver to remove and reinstall the mounting screws or clips holding the grille in place.
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 black finish and mounting configuration of the vent grille originally installed on your microwave.

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

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.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Microwave Before Starting Unplug the microwave before beginning. Open the microwave door and locate the waveguide cover on the interior right wall of the cavity — it is a flat rectangular plate, typically tan or off-white in color. If the old cover is burned, it may be stuck to the wall or disintegrating — carefully remove any remaining pieces and wipe the mounting area clean. Slide or clip the new W10915651 cover into the mounting slot on the right wall of the cavity — it should seat flat against the wall with no gaps. Ensure the cover is fully seated before use. Do not operate the microwave with a missing, cracked, or burned waveguide cover — even a small burn hole can cause arcing and progressive damage. Restore power and run a brief test cycle to confirm normal operation. Tools needed: None. A damp cloth may be needed to clean the mounting area.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the waveguide cover do and why does it need to be replaced?
The waveguide cover is a thin mica plate that covers the opening of the waveguide — the channel through which microwave energy travels from the magnetron into the cooking cavity. Its job is to prevent food particles, grease, and steam from entering and contaminating the waveguide. When food splatter builds up on the cover and burns, the cover develops scorch marks or burn-through holes. These damaged spots absorb microwave energy and cause arcing — sparks and electrical discharges that can quickly damage the magnetron, which is the most expensive component in the microwave. Replacing the waveguide cover promptly when it shows damage is the least expensive and most important preventive maintenance you can do for a microwave.
Can I use the microwave without the waveguide cover?
No — never operate a microwave with a missing, cracked, or burned waveguide cover. Without the cover, food particles and moisture can enter the waveguide directly, causing immediate arcing and sparking. Even a small hole in the cover can cause arcing. Operating the microwave in this condition risks damaging the magnetron (a $100–$200 or more repair), burning the waveguide channel, or creating a fire hazard. The waveguide cover is inexpensive and installs in minutes — always replace it before using the microwave again.
My microwave is sparking — will replacing the waveguide cover fix it?
Sparking is almost always caused by a burned or damaged waveguide cover, and replacing the cover resolves the sparking in the vast majority of cases. However, if the waveguide itself (the metal channel behind the cover) has been damaged from prolonged arcing, or if metal debris from a burned cover has entered the waveguide, additional cleaning or component repair may be needed. Inspect the area behind the old cover after removing it — if the wall or channel shows deep burn damage, contact our support team or a technician before operating the microwave again.
How do I prevent the waveguide cover from burning again?
The most effective prevention is to keep the interior of the microwave clean — specifically the waveguide cover itself and the walls near it. Wipe down the cover and interior walls with a damp cloth after each use, especially after heating anything that splashes or spatters. Use a microwave-safe cover or lid over food when heating. Never operate the microwave when empty, as this directs all microwave energy at the waveguide cover without any food to absorb it. With regular cleaning, a mica waveguide cover can last for years without needing replacement.
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 from heat-resistant mica to match the dimensions and fit of the original W10915651 waveguide cover.

Genuine OEM WPW10185972 Dryer Timer
The Genuine OEM Whirlpool WPW10185972 is the dryer timer, the electromechanical control that advances through your dryer's preset cycles. Its internal contacts open and close the circuits that control heat and the drum motor, so the dryer runs for the right amount of time at the right setting. When the timer fails, the dryer may not start, may not advance through the cycle, or may over-dry or under-dry your clothes.
This is the original Whirlpool part, also sold under the older number W10185972. It is listed for Whirlpool-built electric dryers sold as Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Admiral, Roper, Inglis, and Crosley. Check the part number before ordering, because a similar timer, WPW10185971, is listed for different models.
Quick Answer
The Genuine OEM WPW10185972 Dryer Timer fixes a Whirlpool-built electric dryer that won't start, won't advance through its cycle, or over-dries or under-dries because the timer has failed. It is also listed as W10185972. Classic symptom: the dial turns but the dryer doesn't run or doesn't engage all the cycle selections.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer or switch off its circuit breaker before beginning, and wear work gloves. Remove the control panel as shown in your model's service guide to reach the timer. Before disconnecting anything, photograph the wire connections or note the position of each wire, since the timer has many terminals. Move the wires one at a time to the new timer, mount it, replace the knob, and restore power. Test each cycle selection before closing the dryer.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer won't start. Is this the part I need?
A failed timer is a common cause, especially if the dial turns but the dryer doesn't run or doesn't engage every cycle selection. The door switch, start switch, and thermal fuse can cause the same symptom, so check those first.
Is WPW10185972 the same as W10185972?
Yes. W10185972 is the older Whirlpool number for the same timer, and this part covers both numbers.
Can I use WPW10185971 instead?
No, don't assume so. WPW10185971 is a separate timer listed for different models. Use the number your model calls out, or contact our support team to confirm before ordering.
Will this fit my dryer?
It is listed for many Whirlpool-built electric 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.
