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.

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 XP6974 Dryer Thermostat Kit Replaces WP3387134, WP3392519, W10900067, 279816
The XPARTCO XP6974 is an aftermarket dryer thermostat kit containing four thermal components for Whirlpool-family electric and gas dryers including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Roper, Admiral, Estate, Crosley, Inglis, and Magic Chef. The kit includes the cycling thermostat (WP3387134), thermal fuse (WP3392519), high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off kit (279816 / W10900067) — the complete set of heat-sensing and safety components that regulate dryer temperature and prevent dangerous overheating.
These four components work together to control and protect the dryer's heating system. When any one of them fails, the dryer may produce no heat, overheat, run too long, or stop mid-cycle. Because a failed thermal fuse is almost always caused by an underlying overheating condition that also stresses the other components, replacing all four together in a single repair is the recommended approach. Includes all wiring hardware needed for installation. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO XP6974 Dryer Thermostat Kit fixes Whirlpool-family dryers that produce no heat, overheat, take too long to dry, or stop mid-cycle. Includes all four thermal components: cycling thermostat (L155-25), thermal fuse (196°F), high-limit thermostat (L250-80), and thermal cut-off (309°F). Compatible with Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Roper, Admiral, Estate, Crosley, Inglis, and Magic Chef electric and gas dryers.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer and Shut Off Gas Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. Remove the back panel of the dryer to access the heating element housing and exhaust duct. The thermal fuse (WP3392519) and cycling thermostat (WP3387134) are located on the exhaust duct or blower housing — disconnect the wires, unscrew the mounting screws, and install the new parts in the same positions. The high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off (279816 kit) are located on the heating element housing — disconnect the wires and unscrew the mounting screws to remove the old parts and install the new ones. Reconnect all wires to the correct terminals — take a photo before disconnecting to reference during reinstallation. Reassemble the back panel, restore power, and run a test cycle to verify heat. Tip: Before running the dryer, also clean the full length of the exhaust duct — a clogged vent is the most common root cause of dryer overheating and repeated thermal fuse failures. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does each part in this kit do?
The cycling thermostat (WP3387134) monitors the air temperature in the exhaust duct and cycles the heating element on and off to maintain the correct drying temperature — it is the part that controls how hot the dryer gets during normal operation. The thermal fuse (WP3392519) is a one-time safety device that permanently cuts power to the heating element if the dryer overheats above 196°F — it is the most common cause of no-heat in Whirlpool-family dryers. The high-limit thermostat opens at approximately 250°F to cut heating element power if temperature gets too high, and resets automatically when it cools. The thermal cut-off is a backup one-time fuse on the heating element that opens at 309°F if the high-limit thermostat fails to protect the heater.
Why should I replace all four parts instead of just the one that failed?
When a thermal fuse blows, it almost always blew because the dryer overheated — and that overheating event put significant stress on all the other thermal components as well. A failing cycling thermostat is the most common cause of repeated thermal fuse failures: if the cycling thermostat stops regulating temperature correctly, the dryer runs too hot, the high-limit thermostat is repeatedly stressed, and the thermal fuse eventually blows. Replacing just the fuse without replacing the cycling thermostat means the same overheating will blow the new fuse. Replacing all four parts at once eliminates that risk in a single repair.
How do I test these parts with a multimeter?
Set the multimeter to continuity or resistance mode. The thermal fuse (WP3392519), cycling thermostat (WP3387134), and high-limit thermostat should all show closed continuity (near-zero resistance) at room temperature. The thermal cut-off should also show closed continuity at room temperature. Any part that reads open (no continuity / infinite resistance) at room temperature has failed and needs to be replaced. A blown thermal fuse or cut-off will always read open — they are one-time devices and cannot reset.
What causes the thermal fuse to blow repeatedly?
The most common cause by far is a clogged exhaust vent — lint accumulation inside the dryer duct restricts airflow, causing heat to build up inside the dryer cabinet until the thermal fuse trips. Always clean the full length of the exhaust duct before and after replacing these parts. Other causes include a failing cycling thermostat that is not regulating temperature correctly, a stuck heating element relay, or a dryer placed in an enclosed space without adequate ventilation.
Is this kit compatible with both electric and gas dryers?
Yes — the XP6974 kit is compatible with both electric and gas Whirlpool-family dryers. Both types use the same cycling thermostat (WP3387134) and thermal fuse (WP3392519). The high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off (279816 kit) are located on the heating element in electric models and on the burner assembly area in gas models. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm all four parts apply to your dryer.

W11481722 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Shift Actuator
The W11481722 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM shift actuator (gear case) for Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Crosley, and Kenmore top-load washers. Mounted at the bottom of the washer, this component does two jobs in one assembly: it physically shifts the transmission between modes by moving an arm on the cam assembly, engaging and disengaging either the basket or the agitator/washplate depending on what the cycle calls for, and it houses the tachometer that reports drum speed back to the control board throughout the cycle.
Rated 120V, 60Hz, with a 6-pin wire connector for a direct plug-in fit. Because this single part handles both mechanical shifting and speed sensing, a failure here can produce a range of symptoms depending on which function is affected: the washer may fail to spin or agitate properly, get stuck in one mode without transitioning to the other, or the control board may throw an error code related to a lost tachometer signal or improper basket engagement. It directly replaces AP6990751, W10597177, WPW10597177, W11237117, W11398781.
Quick Answer

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — Note Cam Position Before Removal Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access to the shift actuator is through the gear case at the bottom of the washer, which typically requires tipping the washer back or removing surrounding panels per your model's service instructions to reach it. Photograph the wiring harness connection and the actuator's mounting position before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the 6-pin wiring harness connector from the old actuator, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free from the gear case. Install the new W11481722 in the same position, secure the mounting screws, and reconnect the 6-pin harness connector fully. Reassemble any panels removed for access, restore power, and run a full test cycle through both agitate and spin to confirm the washer shifts between modes correctly with no error codes. Tools needed: Phillips or nut driver screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer is stuck in one mode — it will either agitate or spin, but not both. Is this the shift actuator?
Yes, this is a classic symptom of a failed shift actuator. This part is what physically moves the arm on the cam assembly to switch the transmission between agitate/wash mode and spin mode. If it fails, the washer can get mechanically stuck engaging only one of those two functions, since the shifting mechanism itself is no longer moving the cam correctly.
My control board shows a tachometer error. Why would that be the shift actuator and not something else?
Because this single part combines both the mechanical shifting function and the tachometer that reports drum speed to the control board, a failure inside the actuator can knock out the speed-sensing function even if the shifting mechanism is unaffected, or vice versa. A tachometer-related error code is a direct signal that this component — not a separate sensor — is the likely cause.
Is this a difficult repair?
It's a moderate repair, since accessing the gear case at the bottom of the washer typically requires tipping the unit back or removing surrounding panels, depending on your specific model. It's within reach for a confident DIYer with basic hand tools, but budget more time than a simple top-panel swap.
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 shifting mechanism, tachometer calibration, and 6-pin harness configuration of the shift actuator originally installed in your washer.

XPARTCO 280148 Dryer Thermostat Set
The XPARTCO 280148 is an aftermarket replacement thermal fuse and high-limit thermostat set for Whirlpool electric dryers, and also fits select Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Estate, Crosley, Admiral, KitchenAid, and Norge models. This set bundles the 8557403 high-limit thermostat, which monitors temperature and automatically cuts power to the heating element if it overheats, then resets itself once the dryer cools, together with the 8318314 thermal fuse, a one-time backup safety device that permanently opens the circuit if temperatures climb high enough that the thermostat alone doesn't prevent an overheat.
These two parts are sold together and commonly fail around the same time, since they protect the same circuit and respond to the same underlying overheating conditions — most often restricted exhaust venting. Symptoms include the dryer not heating at all, taking longer than normal to dry a load, or overheating before shutting down. It directly replaces 280148VP, 1175772, AP3874047, PS991443, EAP991443, and 314634.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 280148 Dryer Thermostat Set fixes Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Estate, Crosley, Admiral, KitchenAid, and Norge electric dryers with no heat, drying that takes too long, or a dryer that overheats before shutting down. Includes the 8557403 high-limit thermostat (auto-resetting) and 8318314 thermal fuse (one-time). Replaces 280148VP, 1175772, AP3874047, PS991443, EAP991443, 314634. Always inspect and clean the exhaust venting when replacing this set — 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. Restricted airflow is the leading cause of failure for both of these components, and skipping the vent check often leads to repeat failures even with new parts installed. Install the new 8557403 thermostat and 8318314 thermal fuse from this set 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
Why replace both the thermostat and the fuse together instead of just the one that failed?
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 set 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 set 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 WP8544771 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 280148 high-limit thermostat and thermal fuse set used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, and related electric dryers.

XPARTCO WE4M137 Dryer High Limit Thermostat
The XPARTCO WE4M137 is an aftermarket replacement high limit thermostat for GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore dryers. Mounted on the upper right side of the heater housing, this safety thermostat monitors the temperature of the heating circuit and cuts power to the heating element (and in some conditions the motor) if the dryer runs hotter than it should — typically from restricted airflow, a clogged vent, or a failing cycling thermostat. Unlike a one-time thermal fuse, this is an auto-resetting high limit thermostat (rated L315-65F): it opens at approximately 315°F to stop overheating, then automatically closes again once the unit cools down, without needing to be replaced after each trip.
This is a direct-fit aftermarket replacement built to the same temperature rating and mounting as the original thermostat. If this component trips repeatedly, it's worth checking the underlying cause of the overheating at the same time — a clogged lint trap or restricted exhaust vent is the most common root cause.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WE4M137 High Limit Thermostat fixes a GE, Hotpoint, or Kenmore dryer that shuts off a few minutes into a heat cycle, stops early and won't restart until it cools down, or cycles on and off intermittently. Auto-resetting, rated to open at approximately 315°F. Classic symptom: dryer runs fine for a few minutes then quits on heat, and won't restart again until it's had time to cool.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer shuts off a few minutes into a heat-dry cycle
Dryer stops early and won't restart until it cools down
Intermittent shutdowns during the drying cycle
Clothes coming out damp because the cycle keeps cutting short
Dryer won't start at all if the thermostat has failed in an open position
Cross Reference Information
Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer or switch off its circuit breaker before beginning. Remove the dryer's rear or front panel per your model's service guide to access the heater housing — the thermostat is mounted on its upper right side. Disconnect the wire terminals from the old thermostat, noting their positions, and remove the mounting screw holding it in place. Install the new thermostat in the same position and reconnect the wire terminals. Before closing the dryer back up, clean out the lint trap and check the exhaust vent for restrictions — a clogged vent is the most common cause of this thermostat tripping repeatedly, and clearing it now can prevent a repeat failure.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer shuts off a few minutes into the cycle and won't restart — is this the part I need?
Yes, this is a classic symptom of a failing high limit thermostat. It's designed to cut power when the dryer overheats and automatically reset once things cool down, so if your dryer won't restart until it's had time to sit, this thermostat is a likely cause.
Is this a one-time fuse like the thermal fuse, or does it reset itself?
This is an auto-resetting thermostat, not a one-time thermal fuse. It opens to cut power when the dryer overheats, then closes again automatically once the unit cools — it doesn't need to be replaced every time it trips. If yours has failed and won't reset or close again, that's when replacement is needed.
Why does my dryer keep tripping this thermostat?
Repeated tripping is usually caused by restricted airflow — a clogged lint trap, a crushed or blocked exhaust duct, or a bird's nest or lint buildup in the outside vent hood — or a failed cycling thermostat elsewhere in the heating circuit. Clear the airflow path when you replace this thermostat, or the new one may trip again.
How do I test if this thermostat has failed?
With the dryer unplugged, you can test the thermostat with a multimeter for continuity across its terminals at room temperature. No continuity when it should be closed (cool) is a sign it has failed and needs replacement.

XPARTCO WE04X24719 Dryer Start Button
The XPARTCO WE04X24719 is an aftermarket replacement power and start button assembly for GE and Hotpoint dryers. You push it to power up the dryer's controls and begin the drying cycle. When the button is cracked, stuck, or no longer registers a press, the dryer won't start, even though the rest of the machine is fine.
This is a direct-fit aftermarket replacement for the original GE button assembly. The button mounts through the control panel and onto the switch shaft behind it, so if the dryer still won't start with a new button, the push-to-start switch itself may also need to be checked.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WE04X24719 Start Button fixes a GE or Hotpoint dryer whose start button is broken, stuck, or doesn't start the dryer when pressed. Classic symptom: you press start and nothing happens, or the button feels loose, cracked, or no longer springs back.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer won't start when the start button is pressed
Start button is cracked, broken, or missing
Button feels loose, stuck, or doesn't spring back
Button no longer lines up with the switch behind the panel

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer before beginning, and shut off the gas supply first on gas models. Wear work gloves, as the cabinet edges are sharp. The button is held to the switch behind the control panel, so you will need to remove the back panel, the wires, and the switch to take the old button out through the panel, as shown in your model's service guide. Note where each wire connects before removing it. Fit the new button through the panel onto the switch shaft, then reassemble in reverse order.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer won't start when I press the button. Is this the part I need?
If the button is cracked, loose, or doesn't press the switch, yes. If the button looks fine, the push-to-start switch behind it, the door switch, or a thermal fuse can cause the same symptom, so check those too.
Does this include the switch?
This listing is for the button assembly that fits onto the switch shaft, not the switch. If the switch itself has failed, it is a separate part.
Do I need to take the dryer apart?
Yes. The button is installed through the control panel, so the back panel, wires, and switch have to come off to replace it. Customers report about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Will this fit my dryer?
It is listed for many GE and Hotpoint 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.

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.
Quick Answer
The W10838313 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Freezer Wire Shelf (Lower) fixes Whirlpool upright freezers with a bottom shelf that wobbles, sags, won't lock securely into place, or has wires separating from the retaining clips. Approximately 12" x 25" (11.65"W x 24.55"L). Replaces AP5988764, W10581579, 4363361, PS11727969, W10837264. This is the lower shelf — the upper shelf for the same freezers is a separate, wider part, W10838310 (15.75"W). Double-check which shelf you need before ordering.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Shelf wobbling or sagging under the weight of stored food
Inability to securely lock the shelf into its groove position
Wires separating or pulling loose from the retaining brackets

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.
