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

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.

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.

W10169881 Dryer Genuine OEM Thermostat Kit
Description: This Dryer thermostat kit is an OEM replacement part responsible for ensuring the safety and temperature regulation of the dryer. The high-limit thermostat serves as a critical safety device that monitors and regulates the temperature inside the dryer. When the temperature rises to a level beyond the safe operating range, the high-limit thermostat interrupts the flow of electricity to the heating element. The thermal cut-out fuse, included in this kit, offers an additional layer of protection by disconnecting power to the heating element if it detects excessively high temperatures.

XPARTCO AGM30045804 Dryer Thermostat Kit
The XPARTCO AGM30045804 is an aftermarket replacement high-limit thermostat and thermistor kit for LG dryers. These two components work together in the same temperature-regulation circuit: the thermistor is a temperature sensor, mounted in the blower housing with its wire harness included, that continuously reports drum temperature to the control board so it can fine-tune heat output throughout the cycle. The high-limit thermostat is a safety switch that automatically shuts off the heating element if temperatures climb past a safe threshold, then resets itself once the dryer cools, without needing to be replaced the way a thermal fuse does.
Because these two parts share the same circuit and tend to wear or fail around a similar timeline, LG sells and services them together as one kit rather than as separate individual parts. Symptoms of failure in this circuit include the dryer overheating (which can scorch clothing or, left unaddressed, pose a fire risk), the dryer running with little or no heat, drying times that have become inconsistent, an error code related to temperature control on the display, or clothes coming out damp after a full cycle. It directly replaces 6931EL3003C, 6323EL2001B, 6931EL3003F, 6931EL3004B, AP7206815, EAP16732335, and PS16732335. As an aftermarket replacement, the AGM30045804 kit is built to OEM-equivalent quality standards.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO AGM30045804 Dryer Thermostat Kit fixes LG (and select Kenmore, GE-branded LG-built) dryers with overheating, little or no heat, inconsistent drying times, a temperature-related error code, or clothes coming out damp after a full cycle. High-limit thermostat + thermistor with wire harness. Replaces 6931EL3003C, 6323EL2001B, 6931EL3003F, 6931EL3004B, AP7206815, EAP16732335, PS16732335. If you've already replaced the high-limit thermostat alone and the problem returns, this combined kit — which also addresses the thermistor — is the next step.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Let It Cool Fully First Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning, and allow the dryer to cool completely if it was recently run. Wear work gloves. Access on many LG models follows this general sequence: remove the lint screen, then remove the two front panel screws underneath it, the two screws on the face of the panel, and the two screws holding the blower cover in place. Disconnect the door switch connector and remove the front panel. With the front open, release the drive belt from the tensioner and remove the drum to access the blower housing where the thermistor is located. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since the thermistor and high-limit thermostat can be easy to confuse with other similar-looking components nearby. Disconnect and remove the old thermistor and high-limit thermostat, noting their exact mounting positions. Install the new components from this kit in the same positions, reconnecting wiring exactly as photographed. Reinstall the drum, re-tension the belt over the tensioner, and reassemble the front panel, blower cover, and lint screen area in reverse order. Restore power and run a full test cycle to confirm normal, consistent heating with no premature shutoffs. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
I already replaced the high-limit thermostat, but it keeps tripping. Why would I need this kit instead?
This is a well-documented pattern. If the thermistor — the sensor that reports temperature to the control board — is misreading heat, the control can keep driving the heating element past the point where the high-limit thermostat has to trip repeatedly to protect the dryer, even with a brand-new thermostat installed. Replacing the thermistor alongside the thermostat addresses the root cause rather than just the symptom, which is exactly why LG packages them together as one kit.
What's the difference between the thermistor and the high-limit thermostat?
The thermistor is a sensor, not a switch — it's a variable resistor whose resistance changes with temperature, and the control board reads that value continuously to regulate heat output throughout the cycle. The high-limit thermostat is a safety switch that does one job: it shuts off the heating element automatically if temperature exceeds a safe limit, then resets itself once things cool down. A failing thermistor causes inconsistent or inaccurate heat regulation; a failing high-limit thermostat causes the dryer to shut off unexpectedly or fail to protect against overheating.
My parts diagram shows more thermostat-like parts than what's in this kit. Did I order the wrong thing?
Not necessarily — some LG dryer models have additional related components, such as a separate blower thermostat, that are not part of this specific kit. This kit covers the high-limit thermostat and thermistor. If your repair calls for additional related parts, or if you're not sure exactly which components your model needs, contact our support team with your model number and we'll help you confirm the complete parts list before you order.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured to match the resistance values, switch threshold, and wire harness configuration of the original AGM30045804 high-limit thermostat and thermistor kit used in compatible LG, Kenmore, and GE-branded LG-built dryers.

XPARTCO WR51X10055 Refrigerator Defrost Heater Assembly
The XPARTCO WR51X10055 is an aftermarket replacement refrigerator defrost heater and bracket assembly compatible with a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, Haier, Americana, Monogram, and Café refrigerators. The defrost heater is a glass quartz tube heater mounted on a bracket below the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment. During each automatic defrost cycle, the heater energizes and melts any frost that has accumulated on the evaporator coils — maintaining unobstructed airflow through the coils so the refrigerator can cool efficiently. When the heater fails, frost accumulates on the coils unchecked, blocking airflow and causing both the freezer and fresh food sections to gradually warm up.
Rated at 120V, 725W, this single quartz tube heater assembly measures 12-1/8" L x 3-3/8" W x 2-1/8" H and includes the heater element and mounting bracket. It directly replaces WR51X10030, AP3183311, 914088, AH303781, EA303781, PS303781, SH323, and EAP303781. Often replaced together with the defrost thermostat (WR50X10068) and temperature sensor (WR55X10025) for a complete defrost system repair. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WR51X10055 Refrigerator Defrost Heater Assembly fixes GE and Hotpoint refrigerators where frost is building up on the evaporator coils, the freezer is too warm, the fresh food section is warming up, or the refrigerator is running continuously without cooling properly. Single quartz tube heater, 120V / 725W. Assembly measures 12-1/8" L x 3-3/8" W x 2-1/8" H. Includes heater and bracket. Replaces WR51X10030, AP3183311, 914088, SH323, and more. Compatible with GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, Haier, Americana, Monogram, and Café.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Frost or ice buildup covering the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Unplug the refrigerator before beginning. Remove all food and shelving from the freezer compartment. Remove the freezer bottom drawer and the back panel screws (typically 2 hex-head screws). Slide out the back panel to expose the evaporator coils and defrost heater assembly. If the coils are covered in frost or ice, use a hair dryer to melt the ice before removing the heater — do not chip or force the heater free while iced over, as the glass element is fragile and will break. Disconnect the heater wires from the wiring harness — note the orientation before disconnecting. Remove the 2 Phillips screws securing the heater bracket and lift the heater assembly out. Install the new WR51X10055 heater assembly in the same position, reconnect the wires, and reinstall the bracket screws. Reinstall the back panel, shelving, and food. Restore power and verify the defrost cycle operates normally. Wear work gloves throughout — the evaporator area has sharp edges. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, hair dryer (if coils are iced over), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the refrigerator defrost heater do?
Modern refrigerators use an automatic defrost system that periodically runs a defrost cycle — typically once or twice a day — to melt frost that accumulates on the evaporator coils during normal operation. The defrost heater is a glass quartz heating element that energizes during this cycle and melts the frost off the coils. This keeps the coils clear so air can flow freely through them to cool the refrigerator. When the heater fails, frost builds up unchecked on the coils over days or weeks — eventually blocking airflow completely and causing both compartments to warm up, even though the compressor is still running.
How do I know if my defrost heater has failed?
Remove the freezer back panel to expose the evaporator coils. If the coils are heavily coated in frost or solid ice — especially if both the freezer and refrigerator sections have been warming up — a failed defrost heater is the most likely cause. You can confirm with a multimeter: disconnect the heater and probe both wire ends. A working heater shows continuity (resistance between approximately 10–200 ohms at room temperature depending on wattage). No continuity confirms the heater element has burned out. Also visually inspect the glass tube — a burned, blackened, or broken tube is a clear sign of failure.
Should I also replace the defrost thermostat and temperature sensor?
Yes — since the freezer must be fully emptied and the back panel removed to replace the heater, it is highly recommended to also replace the defrost thermostat (WR50X10068) and temperature sensor (WR55X10025) at the same time. All three components form the defrost system and wear at similar rates. A failed thermostat or sensor can cause the heater to run too long or not at all — replacing all three in a single repair eliminates that risk and saves you from another complete freezer teardown in the near future.
My freezer is warming up but the compressor is running — is it the defrost heater?
It often is — but not always. A compressor that is running but not cooling can be caused by a failed defrost heater (frost blocking airflow), a faulty evaporator fan motor (air not circulating), a defrost thermostat or timer failure, or a sealed system problem (refrigerant leak or compressor issue). The easiest way to distinguish a defrost system failure from other causes is to open the freezer and check whether frost has built up on the back panel or coils. If yes, the defrost heater is the most likely culprit. If the coils are clear and the compressor is running, look at the evaporator fan or sealed system next.
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 as a single quartz tube glass heater rated at 120V/725W to match the dimensions and performance of the original WR51X10055 defrost heater assembly.
