Installation Notes
⚠️ Gas Appliance Safety Warning This part is used in gas ranges. Working with gas appliances carries risk of gas leaks, fire, and explosion if installed incorrectly. Always shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve and unplug the range before beginning any repair. If you smell gas at any point during or after installation, leave the area immediately and contact your gas utility provider. If you are not confident working on gas appliances, have this part installed by a qualified appliance technician.
⚠️ Installation Instructions Unplug the range and shut off the gas supply before beginning. Open the oven door and remove the oven racks. Lift and remove the oven bottom panel by unscrewing the retaining screws. Remove the heat shield (if present) to expose the burner and igniter assembly. Unscrew the igniter mounting screws — typically one or two — and carefully disconnect the wire connector. Connect the new W11176454 igniter to the wire harness using the two separate connectors, secure it to the burner bracket with the mounting screws, then reinstall the heat shield and oven bottom panel. Restore gas supply and power and run a test cycle to confirm the oven lights correctly. Important: Do not touch the silicon carbide igniter element with bare hands — oils from skin reduce its lifespan. Handle only by the bracket and leads. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between W11176454 and W10914411?
The W11176454 is the updated part number that directly supersedes the older W10914411. Both are the same hot surface igniter for compatible Whirlpool, Amana, and Maytag gas ranges. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with both part numbers.
How do I know if my oven igniter needs to be replaced?
The most common signs are the oven not heating at all, taking much longer than usual to preheat, or the igniter glowing orange but never lighting the burner. A working igniter reaches ignition temperature within about 30–90 seconds and glows bright orange. If it glows dimly or stays on indefinitely without the burner lighting, the igniter has weakened and is no longer drawing enough current to open the gas safety valve.
Why does my igniter glow but the oven still won't heat?
This is the classic symptom of a weak igniter. The gas safety valve requires a minimum amperage draw — typically around 3.2 amps — to open and allow gas to flow to the burner. As the igniter ages, its resistance increases and amperage drops below this threshold. The igniter still glows because it has some current, but not enough to open the valve. Replacing the igniter resolves this in nearly all cases.
Is the W11176454 compatible with my Amana or Maytag range?
Yes — the W11176454 is compatible with select Amana AGR and AGG series gas ranges and select Maytag AGR series models in addition to Whirlpool WFG320 and WFG505 series ranges. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
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 made from silicon carbide to match the electrical specifications and performance of the original W11176454 igniter.

XPARTCO 00631633 Range Surface Burner Igniter Electrode
The XPARTCO 00631633 is an aftermarket replacement gas range surface burner igniter electrode (also called a spark electrode) compatible with select Bosch, Thermador, and Gaggenau gas ranges and cooktops in the HDI, HGI, NGM, NGMP, HDIP, and HGIP series. The surface burner igniter electrode is the ceramic-tipped spark generator located at each gas burner position on the cooktop. When the burner is turned on, the ignition system sends a high-voltage pulse to the electrode, which generates a spark across the ceramic tip to ignite the gas flowing from the burner. When the electrode cracks, chips, or becomes contaminated with grease or food residue, the burner may fail to light, click continuously without igniting, or spark intermittently.
This replacement electrode is constructed from high-quality ceramic and metal — the ceramic insulator body withstands the thermal cycling of repeated ignition, while the metal spark tip maintains reliable spark gap geometry over time. Sold individually — one electrode per order. It directly replaces AP5950372, 4162041, and PS10057850. Because a gas range typically has four or more burners with individual electrodes, compare your existing electrode's dimensions and mounting configuration before ordering to ensure a correct fit. Installs in minutes — no tools required in most cases.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Gas Appliance Safety Warning This part is used in gas ranges. Always turn off the gas supply at the shutoff valve and unplug the range from the electrical outlet before beginning any repair. If you smell gas at any point during or after installation, leave the area immediately and contact your gas utility provider. If you are not confident working on gas appliances, have this part installed by a qualified appliance technician.
⚠️ Unplug Range and Turn Off Gas Before Starting With the range unplugged and gas supply off, remove the cooktop grates and burner caps to access the burner heads. The igniter electrode is the small ceramic component positioned beside each burner head, held in place by a mounting bracket and screw or a snap-in clip depending on the model. Disconnect the single wire connector from the old electrode. Remove the mounting screw and lift the old electrode out. Install the new 00631633 electrode in the same position, secure the mounting screw, and reconnect the wire connector. Replace the burner caps and grates. Restore power and gas supply, then test each burner for reliable ignition. If the burner still does not light after replacing the electrode, inspect the igniter wire and the electronic ignition module. Tools needed: Phillips or Torx screwdriver (for mounting bracket on some models); no tools needed on models with snap-in electrodes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the surface burner igniter electrode do?
The igniter electrode is the component that creates the spark to light each gas burner. When you turn a burner knob past the "lite" position, the range's electronic ignition module sends a series of high-voltage pulses through the igniter wiring to the electrode at that burner. The electrode generates a visible spark across its ceramic tip to the grounded burner cap or burner head, and that spark ignites the gas flowing from the burner ports. Each burner position has its own dedicated electrode — failure of one electrode affects only that burner, while other burners on the same range continue to work normally.
My burner clicks constantly even when turned off — is it the electrode?
Constant clicking when a burner is in the off position is almost always caused by moisture or food residue in the igniter system rather than a failed electrode. When liquid boilover or steam gets into the burner cap area or electrode housing, it can cause the ignition module to fire continuously. Remove the burner cap and grate from the affected burner and allow everything to dry thoroughly — an hour in a warm oven (electric only, turned off) can help. Wipe the electrode tip clean with a dry cloth. If clicking persists after the components are completely dry and clean, the electrode or the ignition module may have been damaged by the moisture and needs replacement.
How many electrodes do I need for my Bosch range?
Most Bosch gas ranges have four surface burners, each with its own dedicated igniter electrode — so a full cooktop replacement typically requires four electrodes. This listing is for one electrode. If only one burner is not lighting, you likely only need one replacement. If multiple burners are failing, order one electrode for each affected burner. Because the electrodes on compatible Bosch models use the same part number across all burner positions, one order of multiple quantities covers all positions.
Can I clean the electrode instead of replacing it?
Yes — a contaminated or greasy electrode can often be cleaned successfully rather than replaced. Remove the electrode from the burner area and gently clean the ceramic tip and metal contact with a dry cloth or a soft toothbrush. Do not use water or liquid cleaners directly on the electrode — moisture in the ceramic can cause persistent clicking. If the ceramic body is cracked or the metal tip is corroded or missing, replacement is required. If the ceramic is intact and clean but the spark is still weak or absent, the electrode's spark gap geometry may have changed from thermal expansion and a replacement is the better fix.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Bosch OEM part, but is manufactured from high-quality ceramic and metal to match the dimensions and spark performance of the original 00631633 igniter electrode.

17438200000404 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Temperature Sensor (Thermistor)
The 17438200000404 is a Genuine OEM Midea replacement dryer temperature sensor (thermistor) compatible with an extensive range of Midea, Criterion, and Insignia electric and gas dryers. This NTC (negative temperature coefficient) thermistor continuously monitors air temperature inside the dryer and sends resistance-based readings to the control board, which uses this data to regulate heating element cycling, prevent overheating, and maintain consistent drying temperatures throughout the cycle. As the thermistor heats up, its electrical resistance decreases in a predictable way, allowing the control board to calculate the exact temperature in real time.
When this sensor fails — whether shorted, open, or providing drifted/inaccurate readings — the dryer may overheat, may not heat at all, may dry clothes unevenly, may take much longer than normal to complete a cycle, or may trigger a not-heating fault on models with digital displays. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Midea to factory specifications, the 17438200000404 directly replaces WF-123X2060 (an alternate catalog cross-reference used by some suppliers, including for compatible Maytag-branded Midea-built units). Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting (Shut Off Gas First on Gas Models) Disconnect power before beginning (and shut off the gas supply first if you have a gas dryer model). Midea dryers typically have 2–3 temperature sensors: an exhaust thermistor on the blower housing or exhaust duct, a drum thermistor inside the drum cavity, and on heat pump models, an evaporator thermistor — confirm which sensor location matches your symptom and part diagram before starting. Access the sensors by removing the back panel on vented models, or the side/bottom panels on heat pump models. Photograph the connector position before disconnecting. Unplug the old sensor's connector and inspect it for corrosion or heat discoloration on the wires — discoloration indicates prior overheating in that area. Remove the mounting clip or screw securing the old sensor and pull it free. Install the new 17438200000404 sensor in the same position, reseat the connector firmly, and secure the mounting hardware. Reassemble the panel, restore power, and run a test heat cycle to confirm normal temperature regulation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, multimeter (for testing).
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I test if the temperature sensor (thermistor) has failed?
Unplug the dryer, disconnect the sensor's connector, and set your multimeter to resistance mode. At room temperature (around 70°F), a working NTC thermistor should read approximately 10,000 to 12,000 ohms. If the sensor reads 0 ohms, it has shorted internally. If it reads infinite resistance (open circuit, often shown as "OL" on the multimeter), the sensor has failed open. Either reading confirms the sensor needs replacement. If you have multiple sensors testing bad at the same time, check the shared ground wire — a broken ground connection can cause all sensors on that circuit to read as open even if the individual sensors are fine.
My Midea dryer has more than one temperature sensor — how do I know which one to replace?
Midea dryers typically use 2–3 temperature sensors depending on the model: an exhaust thermistor mounted on the blower housing or exhaust duct, a drum thermistor inside the drum cavity, and — on heat pump/ventless models — an evaporator thermistor in the refrigerant circuit area. The 17438200000404 is used across this Midea/Criterion/Insignia platform, but confirming the exact mounting location for your specific symptom (e.g., overheating vs. uneven drying) and model number before ordering will help ensure you're replacing the correct sensor.
What is the difference between 17438200000404 and WF-123X2060?
These are the same temperature sensor. WF-123X2060 is an alternate catalog cross-reference number used by some parts suppliers for the identical Midea-manufactured thermistor — it appears in listings for compatible Maytag-branded Midea-built units as well as the standard Midea, Criterion, and Insignia models. If your dryer's parts diagram shows either number, the 17438200000404 is the correct part.
Does this sensor fit my Insignia or Criterion dryer?
Yes — Insignia (Best Buy) and Criterion (Sears/Kmart) are house brands whose dryers in this size and configuration are manufactured by Midea and use the same internal components, including this temperature sensor. Confirmed compatible models include Insignia NSDRE67WH8A, NSFDRE67WH8A, NSFDRE77WH8B, NSTDRE67W1, NSTDRE75W1 (electric) and NSFDRG67WH8A, NSTDRG67W1, NSTDRG75W1 (gas), as well as Criterion CDE41N1AW (electric) and CDG41N1AW (gas).

XPARTCO 134719300 Dryer Drum Belt
The XPARTCO 134719300 is an aftermarket replacement dryer drum drive belt compatible with a wide range of Frigidaire, Electrolux, Crosley, Kenmore, White-Westinghouse, and Gibson dryers. The drum belt is a critical component that connects the motor pulley to the drum, enabling the drum to rotate during drying cycles. The belt wraps around the drum circumference, passes over an idler pulley (which maintains tension), and connects to the drive motor pulley. When the motor runs, it drives the belt, which rotates the drum to tumble clothes for even drying. Over time, drive belts fail due to normal wear from friction and heat, cracking or fraying from age and repeated flexing, stretching that reduces tension and causes slipping, contamination from lint buildup, or sudden breakage from overloading or mechanical stress.
Constructed from durable black rubber with reinforced fabric or cord embedded inside for strength and flexibility, designed to withstand thousands of hours of operation under high temperatures and constant friction. Dimensions: 90"L x 5/16"W x 1/8"H with 5 ribs and 4 grooves. It directly replaces 134719300, 137315300, 7134719300, LB5300, 1482960, AP4368788, EAP2349294, PD00000843, and PS2349294. Important: install the belt with the grooves facing DOWN, against the drum. Often replaced together with the idler pulley (134793500/134793511, sold separately) as a paired repair since both wear together. Installs in 30–60 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves — Grooves Face DOWN Disconnect power at the breaker or outlet before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands from sharp sheet metal edges inside the dryer cabinet. Remove the top and/or front panels of the dryer to access the drum — the specific procedure varies by model, but typically involves removing 2–4 screws under the top edge or lint trap area, then lifting or tilting the top panel forward. Once the top is off, disconnect the door switch wire harness and lift the front panel free. This exposes the drum, motor, and idler pulley. Photograph the belt routing before disassembly if any belt fragments remain — you'll need to match the routing pattern with the new belt. Remove any pieces of the old broken belt from around the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley. Support the drum from underneath (a wooden block or two can help hold it in position). Route the new 134719300 belt around the drum in the same position as the old belt — approximately 4-6 inches from the front lip of the drum. Install with the grooves facing DOWN, against the drum surface — this is essential for proper engagement with the motor pulley. From under the drum, route the belt over the idler pulley and around the drive motor pulley in a Z-shape. Rotate the drum by hand a few full turns to confirm the belt seats correctly and rides smoothly. Verify the drum rotates freely without binding — if it doesn't, the belt is twisted, kinked, or misrouted; fix it before reassembling. Reinstall the front and top panels, reconnect the door switch, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm normal operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, wooden block, side cutters (for removing broken belt fragments), flathead screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer runs but the drum won't turn — is the belt the problem?
Almost certainly, yes. When the motor runs (you hear the humming/whirring) but the drum stays still, the belt has almost always snapped or is slipping badly. To confirm without opening the dryer: reach in through the door and try turning the drum by hand. If it spins freely with no resistance whatsoever, the belt is broken. If it turns but feels notchy or resistant, the belt may still be intact but the drum bearings or rollers could be the issue. In either case, opening the dryer to inspect the belt visually is the definitive check — a snapped belt will be lying in the bottom of the cabinet.
Why do I have to install the belt with grooves facing down?
The dryer's motor pulley is a smooth, un-grooved cylinder — the belt runs against it with the flat (smooth) side. The drum, on the other hand, needs the grooves to positively engage and drive without slipping under load. So the grooved side faces the drum (down when you're routing the belt around the drum from above), and the smooth side wraps around the motor pulley and idler pulley. Installing the belt backwards with grooves facing up will cause the belt to slip against the drum immediately and can burn out the new belt within a few minutes of operation.
Should I replace the idler pulley at the same time?
Yes, it's strongly recommended. The idler pulley (134793500 or 134793511 on many compatible dryers) maintains constant tension on the drum belt as the drum rotates. It wears from the same friction cycles as the belt — when the belt fails, the idler pulley bearings have typically also been stressed and are near end-of-life. Since the dryer is already open and the pulley is right there next to the belt, replacing both saves you a repeat repair when the pulley fails a few months later. Signs of a worn idler pulley: rough or noisy rotation when spun by hand, visible wear grooves, or seized bearings.
What's the difference between 134719300 and 137315300?
These are the same drive belt across production revisions. 137315300 was a Frigidaire OEM part number and 134719300 is the current cross-referenced part number that covers the same belt. Both are physically and functionally identical — if your dryer's parts diagram shows either number, this listing is the correct replacement. LB5300 and 7134719300 are additional catalog references for the same belt.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Frigidaire/Electrolux OEM part, but is manufactured from durable rubber with reinforced fabric/cord to match the dimensions (90"L x 5/16"W x 1/8"H), rib and groove pattern (5 ribs, 4 grooves), and drive function of the original 134719300 drum belt used in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, Crosley, Kenmore, White-Westinghouse, and Gibson dryers.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Gas Appliance Safety Warning This part is used in gas ranges. Always shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve and unplug the range from the electrical outlet before beginning any repair. If you smell gas at any point during or after installation, leave the area immediately and contact your gas utility provider. If you are not confident working on gas appliances, have this part installed by a qualified appliance technician.
⚠️ Handle With Extreme Care — Fragile Silicon Carbide Element The silicon carbide igniter element is extremely fragile and will crack or break with minimal force. Never touch the ceramic bar with bare hands — oils from skin will damage the element and cause premature failure. Handle only by the bracket, wires, and ceramic wire nut connectors. To install: unplug the range and shut off gas. Remove the oven racks and oven bottom panel. Disconnect the old igniter's wire connector (or cut wires if splicing). Unscrew the mounting bracket from the burner assembly and remove the old igniter. Position the new PB04001 igniter on the burner bracket and secure with the mounting screws. If the female terminals plug directly into the existing wiring, connect them. If wires need to be spliced, use the included ceramic wire nuts — never use standard plastic wire nuts near the oven burner. Reinstall the oven bottom panel and racks. Restore gas and power, then run a test cycle to confirm the igniter heats and the burner lights within 60 seconds. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does a hot surface igniter work on a Viking gas oven?
The hot surface igniter is wired in series with the oven's gas safety valve. When the oven is turned on, electrical current flows through the igniter, heating the silicon carbide element until it reaches ignition temperature — typically glowing bright orange. As the element heats, its electrical resistance changes and the current draw increases to 3.2–3.6 amps. At that amperage level, the gas safety valve opens and gas flows to the burner, where the glowing igniter ignites it. If the igniter weakens and can no longer draw enough current to open the safety valve, the oven will glow but the burner will never fire — this is the most common cause of a Viking oven not heating.
What is the difference between PB04001 and PB040001?
PB04001 and PB040001 are the same oven igniter — PB04001 is the shortened version of the PB040001 part number. Both refer to the same flat silicon carbide glow bar igniter used on compatible Viking gas ranges. This listing covers both designations and the part functions identically regardless of which number is referenced.
How do I know if my oven igniter has failed?
The most common sign is an oven that glows orange but the burner never lights. A healthy igniter glows bright orange and ignites the burner within about 60 seconds. If it glows dimly, stays on indefinitely without the burner lighting, or does not glow at all when the oven is turned on, the igniter has failed. You can also test with a multimeter — with the oven cold and unplugged, a working igniter shows resistance of approximately 40–90 ohms; an open circuit confirms failure. Visually inspect the element for cracks, dark spots, or a broken ceramic bar.
Why must I use ceramic wire nuts instead of standard plastic ones?
Standard plastic wire nuts are not rated for the temperatures inside an oven cavity — they will melt or degrade near the burner, exposing bare wires and creating a safety hazard. Ceramic wire nuts (included with this igniter) are heat-rated for oven burner temperatures and provide a safe, permanent connection when splicing is required. Always use only ceramic wire nuts for any wiring connections near the oven burner.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Viking OEM part, but is manufactured from silicon carbide and high-temperature materials to match the electrical specifications and dimensions of the original 065650-000 oven bake igniter.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting (Shut Off Gas First on Gas Models) — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power before beginning (and shut off the gas supply first if you have a gas dryer model). Wear work gloves — there are sharp metal edges inside the dryer cabinet. Remove the lint filter housing screws, release the top panel locking clips with a putty knife, and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to access the drum, drive belt, and tensioner pulley assembly. Locate the belt safety switch in this area — refer to your model's parts diagram to confirm its exact mounting position, as it is positioned near the belt and tensioner pulley support. Photograph the wire connections before disconnecting. Disconnect the wires from the old switch, remove the mounting screw or clip, and pull the switch free. Install the new 17438000001584 switch in the same position, secure the mounting hardware, and reconnect the wires. While this area is open, it's a good time to inspect the drive belt and tensioner pulley for wear, since this switch is related to belt operation. Reassemble the front panel and top panel in reverse order. Restore gas and power, and run a test cycle to confirm the dryer starts and runs normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife, work gloves.

The belt safety switch monitors belt-related conditions near the drive belt and tensioner pulley assembly and interrupts electrical flow to the motor or heating circuit if it detects a fault or unsafe condition — such as a broken or badly slipped drive belt. This is a protective measure: if the belt has failed and the drum can no longer be driven normally, the switch helps prevent continued unsafe operation of the motor or heater. It works alongside other safety components in the dryer (like the door/cover switch and thermal limiters) as part of an overall safety system.
My dryer just had a belt replacement and now isn't working right — could this switch be involved?
It's possible. Since this switch is positioned near the belt and tensioner pulley assembly, it can be disturbed, dislodged, or its connector improperly reseated during a belt replacement. If your dryer is behaving erratically after a recent belt repair — failing to start, shutting off, or not heating — check that this switch's connector is fully seated and that the switch itself wasn't damaged during the repair. If the connector is good and the switch tests as an open circuit with a multimeter, it has failed and needs replacement.
How do I test if this safety switch has failed?
Unplug the dryer, disconnect the switch's wire connector, and set your multimeter to continuity mode. With the belt and tensioner mechanism in their normal operating position, the switch should show closed continuity (allowing current to flow). If the switch shows an open circuit when it should be closed, it has failed and needs replacement. Always refer to your specific model's wiring diagram to confirm the expected switch state, since exact behavior can vary by dryer model.
Does this switch fit Insignia and Criterion dryers as well as Midea?
Yes — Insignia (Best Buy) and Criterion (Sears/Kmart) are house brands whose dryers in certain configurations are manufactured by Midea and use the same internal components, including this belt safety switch. Confirmed Criterion models include the CDG41N1AW and CDG45N1AW gas dryers. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Midea to factory specifications. It is the exact same belt safety switch installed in compatible Midea, Criterion, and Insignia dryers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

XPARTCO 3387134 - 3392519 Dryer Cycling Thermostat and Thermal Fuse Set - Compatible with Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag
Product Description
Maintain safe and efficient dryer operation with the XPARTCO 3387134 - 3392519 Dryer Cycling Thermostat and Thermal Fuse Set. This replacement kit includes one cycling thermostat (3387134, L155-25) and one thermal fuse (3392519), designed as a replacement for select Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, and other compatible dryers. The cycling thermostat regulates drum temperature, while the thermal fuse prevents overheating by cutting power if temperatures exceed safe limits. This set addresses issues like overheating, insufficient heat, no heat, or prolonged drying times. Test the thermal fuse first if the dryer won't heat, as it typically fails before the thermostat.
Note: Includes (1) cycling thermostat and (1) thermal fuse. Disconnect power before installation. Verify compatibility with your dryer model.
