279838 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Heating Element The 279838 is a Genuine OEM Whirlpool replacement dryer heating element assembly compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Roper, Crosley, Estate, Inglis, Admiral, and Magic Chef electric dryers. The heating element is the primary heat source in an electric dryer — a nickel-chromium resistance coil wound around a series of ceramic insulators inside a steel housing. When electricity passes through the coil during the drying cycle, it generates the heat needed to evaporate moisture from clothes. When the element coil burns through at a weak point, the circuit is broken and the dryer produces no heat. This Genuine OEM part is manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications and is rated at 5400W / 240V with two 5/16" male terminals. It includes the heating element coil with partial housing and ceramic insulators already mounted — the remaining outer housing from your old assembly is reused. Note: the heating element does not include the thermostat or thermal fuse — those are separate parts. It directly replaces WP279837, 279837, 279838A, 279838VP, 3398063, 3398064, 3403585, 8565582, W10724237, 2438, AP3094254, and several additional cross-reference numbers. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.

Remove the back panel of the dryer by unscrewing the perimeter screws to access the heating element housing at the lower rear of the dryer. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything. Remove the two wire connections from the element terminals and the thermostat/thermal fuse wire connections from the housing. Unscrew the heating element housing from the dryer cabinet and slide the old assembly out. Remove the inner element frame from the outer housing — the outer housing is reused. Transfer the new 279838 element (which comes with a partial housing) into the existing outer housing. Reinstall the housing into the dryer, reconnect all wiring in the same positions as photographed, reinstall the back panel, restore power, and run a test heat cycle. Tip: while the element housing is removed, inspect the thermal fuse (3392519) and high-limit thermostat/cut-off kit (279973) and replace if needed. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver. Frequently Asked Questions How do I test if the heating element has failed? Unplug the dryer and remove the back panel to access the heating element housing. Disconnect the two wire terminals from the element and set your multimeter to continuity or resistance mode. Probe both terminals. A working heating element will show a resistance reading — typically between 8 and 15 ohms for a 5400W/240V element. An open circuit (no continuity / infinite resistance) confirms the element coil has burned through at a break point. You can also visually inspect the coil inside the housing for a visible gap, burn spot, or sag in the wire — any break in the coil indicates a failed element. Does this element include the thermostat and thermal fuse? No — the 279838 includes the heating element coil and partial housing only. The high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off fuse are separate parts that mount on the element housing and are not included. When replacing the heating element, it is strongly recommended to also replace these thermal components using the 279973 thermostat kit, as a burned-out element is almost always the result of an overheating condition that also stresses the thermostat and thermal cut-off. Replacing them together ensures the heating system is fully restored and reduces the chance of a repeat failure. Why does the 279838 only come with partial housing? The 279838 heating element is designed as a replacement for the inner coil and frame assembly only — it installs inside the existing outer housing from your old assembly. The outer housing is a steel shell that does not wear out and does not need to be replaced under normal circumstances. By including only the partial housing (inner frame and coil), Whirlpool reduces part cost and simplifies installation — you simply swap the new element into your existing outer housing rather than replacing the entire assembly. Will replacing the heating element fix my dryer if the thermal fuse is also blown? Not by itself. If the thermal fuse (3392519) has also blown — which is common when the heating element fails — replacing only the element will not restore heat because the blown fuse permanently interrupts the circuit. You will need to replace both the heating element and the thermal fuse to restore normal operation. Since a thermal fuse blows due to overheating, also replacing the high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off kit (279973) at the same time is recommended to ensure complete thermal protection is in place. Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part? This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications. It is the exact same heating element assembly installed in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, and related brand electric dryers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

Remove the lint screen, then unscrew the Phillips screws inside the lint screen housing. Use a putty knife to release the top panel clips and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to access the drum and drive components. Release belt tension at the old idler pulley, lift the drum slightly, and slide the old belt off. Remove the old idler arm assembly by unscrewing the mounting screw, then install the new W10837240 idler pulley assembly and secure with the screw. Loop the new WPW10112954 belt around the drum with the ribbed side facing inward, then route it around the new idler pulley and motor pulley. Consult your model's service manual or a model-specific repair video for the correct belt path. Reassemble and run a test cycle. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool. Frequently Asked Questions Why should I replace the belt and idler pulley at the same time? The belt and idler pulley wear together — when one fails, the other is usually close behind. Since the dryer must be fully disassembled to access either part, replacing both in a single repair saves you from having to take the machine apart again soon after. It also protects the new belt from being damaged by a worn pulley, and vice versa. How does the W10837240 differ from other Whirlpool idler pulleys? The W10837240 is the updated idler pulley arm and bracket assembly designed for Whirlpool-family dryers that have the lint screen inside the door. It replaces the older W10547287 and W10547290 assemblies. Some older or different Whirlpool models use a different idler pulley style — if you're unsure which one your dryer needs, contact our support team with your model number before ordering. What is the difference between WPW10112954 and W10112954? These are the same belt. WPW10112954 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original W10112954. Both refer to the identical drum belt included in this kit. Should I also replace the drum rollers at the same time? It depends on the condition of your rollers. Since the dryer is already fully disassembled, it is a good opportunity to inspect the drum support rollers for flat spots, cracks, or wobbling. If they show any wear, replacing them at the same time is recommended to avoid a third disassembly. Check your model's roller part number before ordering. Are these OEM or aftermarket parts? Both parts in this kit are aftermarket replacements built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. They are not genuine Whirlpool OEM parts, but are manufactured to match the dimensions and performance of the original WPW10112954 belt and W10837240 idler pulley assembly.

DG94-01496A Genuine OEM Samsung Gas Cooktop Valve Assembly The DG94-01496A is a Genuine OEM Samsung replacement gas cooktop auxiliary valve assembly compatible with select Samsung gas cooktops in the NA30K, NA30N, NA36K, and related series. The valve assembly is the mechanical component that connects the burner knob to the gas supply manifold — when you turn the knob, the valve precisely regulates the flow of gas to the burner, controlling the flame size from low simmer to high heat. Without a properly functioning valve, the burner can fail to light, stay lit, shut off when turned, or stick in position making the knob unable to turn. This is the auxiliary (single-flow) burner valve, used in burner positions that have a single flame ring. Samsung cooktops typically use multiple valve assemblies — one per burner position — and the center burner (dual-flame) uses a different dual valve assembly. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Samsung to factory specifications, the DG94-01496A directly replaces AP6049694, EAP12072702, PD00052726, and PS12072702. Important: this is a gas appliance part — installation requires shutting off the gas supply, working safely with gas connections, and leak-testing after installation. Installs in 45–60 minutes with basic hand tools by experienced DIYers, or call a qualified appliance technician. Quick Answer The DG94-01496A Genuine OEM Samsung Gas Cooktop Valve Assembly fixes Samsung gas cooktops with a burner that won't light, won't shut off, where the knob is stuck or won't turn, or where flame size won't adjust properly. Auxiliary (single-flow) burner valve. Genuine OEM. Replaces AP6049694, EAP12072702, PD00052726, PS12072702.

Center (dual-flame) burner uses a different valve — confirm which burner position before ordering. Common Problems This Part Fixes Burner won't light — gas not flowing through the valve to the burner Burner won't shut off — valve stuck open, gas continuing to flow even with the knob turned to "OFF" Knob stuck and won't turn — valve internally seized (often caused by water entering during cleaning) Burner flame size won't adjust — valve unable to modulate gas flow Flame too high even on low setting — valve not restricting flow properly Flame too low or weak on high setting — valve partially blocked Gas smell at the cooktop or burner area — valve seal failure Difficulty turning the knob — internal valve corrosion or wear Replaces Part Numbers This gas cooktop valve assembly directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers: AP6049694, ASM116044, EAP12072702, PD00052726, PS12072702. Contact our support team with your model number if you need confirmation before ordering. Compatibility This valve assembly is compatible with select Samsung gas cooktops, including: Samsung gas cooktops — NA30K6550TG/AA-00, NA30K6550TS/AA-00 series Samsung gas cooktops — NA30N6555TG/AA-00 series Samsung gas cooktops — NA36K6550TG/AA-00, NA36K7750TG/AA-00 series Other Samsung gas cooktops in the NA-series using compatible auxiliary burner valves Important — Confirm the Burner Position Before Ordering: Samsung gas cooktops use multiple valve assemblies — typically one per burner position. The DG94-01496A is the auxiliary (single-flow) burner valve. The center dual-flame burner uses a different valve assembly, and other burner positions may also have position-specific part numbers. Before ordering, verify in your cooktop's parts diagram that DG94-01496A is listed for the specific burner position you're replacing, or compare the old valve's part number markings to the new one.

Always shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve before beginning any repair, and disconnect electrical power to the cooktop. After installation is complete, ALL gas connections must be checked for leaks using a soap-and-water solution or an approved gas leak detector before restoring full gas service. 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 comfortable working with gas connections, have this repair done by a qualified appliance technician. Improper installation of gas components can cause fire, explosion, or carbon monoxide hazards. ⚠️ Wear Work Gloves — Significant Disassembly Required Shut off the gas supply at the shutoff valve and disconnect electrical power. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Remove the burner caps, burner heads, and grates from the cooktop surface. The valve assembly is accessed by removing the cooktop top surface — this typically involves removing 16–20 screws around the perimeter of the cooktop to lift the top free. Photograph everything as you go, including the gas line routing and electrical wire connections. Once the top is off, locate the specific valve being replaced (confirm against the parts diagram and the burner position). Disconnect the gas line from the valve (use two wrenches — one to hold the manifold, one to turn the nut — to avoid stressing the manifold). Disconnect any electrical connections to the valve (spark ignitor wires) and remove the valve's mounting hardware. Install the new DG94-01496A valve in the same position with the same orientation, reconnect the gas line and any electrical connections, and secure the mounting hardware. Reinstall the cooktop top, burner heads, caps, and grates. Before restoring full gas service, turn on the gas at the shutoff valve and use a soap-and-water solution or gas leak detector on all gas connections to confirm there are no leaks. Restore electrical power and test the burner by lighting it and confirming smooth flame control across the full range of the knob. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, set of wrenches (two needed at each gas connection), gas leak detector or soap solution, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions Why is my burner knob stuck and won't turn? A stuck burner knob is one of the most common symptoms of a failed valve assembly on Samsung gas cooktops — and one frequent root cause is water entering the valve during knob cleaning. When the knobs are washed (especially with soap and water) and water enters the valve through the knob shaft, it can rust the internal valve mechanism, causing the knob to seize. Once the valve is internally corroded, no amount of force on the knob will free it without risking damage — replacing the valve is the correct repair. To prevent recurrence on the remaining valves: clean knobs by wiping them in place rather than removing and submerging them, and dry the knob shaft area carefully before reinstalling. Does this fit all five burners on my Samsung cooktop? Not necessarily. Samsung gas cooktops typically use multiple valve assemblies — the surrounding burner positions (front-left, front-right, rear-left, rear-right) use auxiliary single-flow valves like the DG94-01496A, while the center burner is typically a dual-flame burner that uses a different dual-valve assembly. If you're replacing valves on more than one burner, confirm which position each valve is needed for and verify the part numbers in your specific model's parts diagram. The valves often look similar but are not interchangeable across positions. Can I do this repair myself, or should I hire a technician? Replacing a gas valve is a manageable DIY repair for someone comfortable with mechanical work, but it does involve disconnecting and reconnecting gas connections — which means leak testing is mandatory and any error can have serious safety consequences. If you have experience with plumbing or gas appliance work and you're confident in your ability to make tight, leak-free connections and properly test them, this is a feasible DIY. If you've never worked with gas connections before, hiring a qualified appliance technician (typical cost $200–$400) is the safer option. The PartsDr customer story mentioned that a quote from a service technician was $750 for this repair, so the DIY savings are substantial — but only if done safely. My cooktop has more than one stuck or failed valve — should I replace them all at once? If multiple valves have failed at the same time, it's worth considering. Once the cooktop top is off, all valves are accessible — replacing additional valves only adds 5–10 minutes per valve. Since the valves are exposed to the same age, use, and potential water intrusion, multiple valve failures often indicate the others are heading the same way. However, valve part numbers may differ by burner position (the center dual-flame valve is different from the auxiliary single-flow valves) — make sure you order the correct valve for each specific position. Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part? This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Samsung to factory specifications. It is the exact same gas cooktop valve assembly installed in compatible Samsung gas cooktops from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

279769 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Thermostat Kit The 279769 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM 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 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. Quick Answer The 279769 Genuine OEM Whirlpool 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.

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 a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same temperature thresholds and mounting configuration as the high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off fuse originally installed in your dryer.

XPARTCO XP311 Dryer Thermostat Kit for LG The XPARTCO XP311 is an aftermarket replacement 3-piece thermostat kit for LG electric dryers, bundling the thermal fuse, thermistor, and high-limit thermostat that work together to regulate and protect the dryer's heating system. These three components monitor heat continuously during normal operation and step in at different thresholds if something goes wrong, which is why they're commonly replaced as a set — a single overheating event or a slow age-related drift in one part can put stress on the others, and buying them together also saves a second teardown if one of the remaining parts fails soon after. This kit includes: the 6931EL3003D thermal fuse, a one-time safety device that permanently cuts power to the dryer if internal temperatures climb dangerously high; the 6323EL2001B thermistor, a temperature sensor assembly with wire harness that continuously reports drum temperature to the control board so it can regulate heat output during the cycle; and the 6931EL3001E high-limit thermostat, which automatically shuts off the heating element if the dryer's temperature exceeds safe operating limits, without needing to be replaced like the thermal fuse does. Symptoms of failure in this circuit include incomplete drying, insufficient heating time, overheating that damages clothing, and the dryer shutting down prematurely or failing to start at all. It directly replaces AP4440975, 1268366, 6931EL3003E, AH3530485, EA3530485, PS3530485 (thermal fuse); AP4441539, 1268206, 6323EL2001H, AH3529026, EA3529026, PS3529026 (thermistor); and AP4440977, 1268363, 6931EL3001B, 6931EL3001C, AH3530481, EA3530481, PS3530481, 6931EL3001F (high-limit thermostat). Quick Answer The XPARTCO XP311 Dryer Thermostat Kit fixes LG (and select Kenmore) electric dryers with incomplete drying, insufficient heat, overheating that damages clothes, or a dryer that shuts down prematurely or won't start. 3-piece kit: thermal fuse (6931EL3003D), thermistor (6323EL2001B), and high-limit thermostat (6931EL3001E). Replaces 6323EL2001B, 6931EL3001E, 6931EL3003D, and their full cross-reference sets listed below. These three parts share the same circuit and commonly fail together — replacing all three at once is standard practice when one has failed. What's In The Kit Component Part Number Function Thermal Fuse 6931EL3003D One-time safety device — permanently cuts power if the dryer overheats. Cannot be reset once blown. Thermistor 6323EL2001B Continuously senses drum temperature and reports it to the control board to regulate heat output. High-Limit Thermostat 6931EL3001E Automatically shuts off the heating element if temperature exceeds safe limits. Resets automatically, unlike the thermal fuse. Common Problems This Kit Fixes Dryer runs but clothes come out only partially dry Insufficient heating time or reduced heat output Overheating that scorches or damages clothing Dryer shuts down prematurely mid-cycle Dryer won't start at all Inconsistent drying results from cycle to cycle Dryer that recently blew a thermal fuse and needs the related components checked Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models.

Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the rear panel or the front, depending on your model — these components are commonly mounted on or near the blower housing and heater duct assembly. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since the thermal fuse, thermistor, and high-limit thermostat can look similar and are easy to swap positions by mistake. Before installing the full kit, it's reasonable to test each old component with a multimeter to confirm which have actually failed — the thermal fuse and high-limit thermostat can each be checked for continuity, though replacing all three together is still standard practice given how this circuit tends to fail. Remove each old component from its mounting position, noting orientation, and disconnect its wiring. Install each new component from the kit in the same position and orientation as the part it replaces, reconnecting wiring exactly as photographed. Reassemble the panel, restore power, and run a full test cycle to confirm normal heating, consistent drying, and no premature shutoffs. Tools needed: Phillips or nut driver (model-dependent), multimeter (recommended), work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions Do I really need to replace all three parts, or can I just replace the one that failed? You can test each component individually with a multimeter and replace only the ones that fail, but there's a good reason these are commonly sold and replaced together: they share the same heating circuit and tend to age or fail around the same time, especially if an overheating event caused the original failure. Replacing all three at once avoids a second teardown if one of the remaining original parts fails again soon after. What's the difference between the thermal fuse and the high-limit thermostat? They sound similar. Both protect against overheating, but they behave very differently. The high-limit thermostat is the first line of defense — it shuts off the heating element automatically if temperature climbs too high, then resets itself once things cool down, letting the dryer resume normal operation. The thermal fuse is the backup: if temperatures climb high enough that the thermostat alone doesn't prevent a dangerous overheat, the fuse permanently opens the circuit and cuts all power. Unlike the thermostat, the fuse cannot reset itself and must be physically replaced once it blows. What does the thermistor actually do, and why does it matter if it's a sensor rather than a switch? The thermistor doesn't switch anything on or off directly — it's a variable resistor whose resistance changes with temperature, and the control board reads that resistance continuously to know exactly how hot the drum is running. That ongoing feedback is what lets the control board fine-tune heat output throughout the cycle rather than just running hot or cold. A failing thermistor can cause the control to misjudge temperature, leading to insufficient heat, inconsistent drying, or the control cutting the cycle short. My dryer blew a thermal fuse. Should I get this whole kit instead of just the fuse? It's worth considering, especially since a blown thermal fuse usually means the dryer actually overheated at some point — and that same overheating event can stress the thermistor and high-limit thermostat even if they haven't failed outright yet. Also worth checking regardless of which parts you replace: restricted exhaust venting is the most common root cause of dryer overheating, so inspect and clean the vent ducting when you do this repair, or the new parts may face the same stress that damaged the originals. Is this an OEM or aftermarket kit? This is an aftermarket replacement kit built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM kit, but each component is manufactured to match the electrical specifications, resistance values, and mounting configuration of the original 6931EL3003D thermal fuse, 6323EL2001B thermistor, and 6931EL3001E high-limit thermostat used in compatible LG electric dryers.

XPARTCO 3387747 Dryer Heating Element Replaces WP3387747 The XPARTCO 3387747 is an aftermarket replacement heating element assembly for Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Roper electric dryers. This element is the source of virtually all the heat in the dryer: current flows through a nickel-chromium coil, which glows and radiates heat as the blower pushes air across it and into the drum. Everything downstream — the drum temperature, the drying time, the final dampness of your clothes — depends on this coil working correctly. Rated 5400W at 240V, with two 5/16" terminals for a direct connection. The nickel-chromium coil is rated at roughly 85% nickel-chromium content for effective, heat-and-abrasion-resistant heating, and it's mounted in high-temperature ceramic insulators that hold it firmly in the frame so it won't loosen or shift under the vibration of a running dryer. Over years of use, the coil itself typically fails with a visible break somewhere along its length — a section simply burns through and the circuit opens, cutting off heat entirely. It directly replaces WP3387747, WP3387747VP, W11045584, W11344457, 80003, 525502, AP6008281, AP2947033, PS344597, PS11741416, EAP11741416, FIX11741416, AWP47520, and PD00002365.

Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the rear panel or the front, depending on your model, to reach the heater duct/blower housing area where the element is mounted. Before removing anything, test the old element with a multimeter set to continuity — a healthy element reads continuous end to end, while a failed one (with a visible break in the coil) reads open. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the two wire terminals from the old element, remove the mounting screws or clips holding it in the duct housing, and pull it free. Install the new 3387747 assembly in the same position, reconnect the two wire terminals, and secure the mounting hardware. While the dryer is open, this is a good time to fully clean the exhaust vent ducting from the lint trap to the outside vent hood — restricted airflow is a major cause of heating element failure, and a fresh element installed into a clogged system will likely fail again prematurely. Reassemble the panel, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm the dryer is heating normally. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, 5/16" wrench, Phillips screwdriver, multimeter, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My dryer has no heat at all. Should I replace the element first, or check something else? Check the thermal fuse first. A blown thermal fuse produces the exact same "no heat at all" symptom as a failed heating element, and it's a much cheaper, faster part to test and replace. Whirlpool's own service guidance recommends checking the thermal fuse before replacing the element. If the fuse tests good and the dryer still has no heat, the element itself is the next thing to test and likely replace. How can I tell if the element has actually failed? The most reliable way is a continuity test with a multimeter — set it to continuity mode, disconnect the element's wires, and touch a probe to each terminal. A healthy element shows continuity (a complete circuit); a failed one shows open (no continuity), which usually corresponds to a visible break or burned-through section somewhere in the coil if you inspect it closely. Why does the listing recommend cleaning the vent duct during this repair? Restricted airflow from a lint-clogged exhaust duct is one of the most common root causes of heating element failure — when air can't move through the system properly, heat builds up around the element well beyond its designed operating range, accelerating wear and often leading directly to a burned-through coil. Since you'll already have the dryer open for this repair, cleaning the full duct run from the lint trap to the outside vent hood is a good use of the same trip and helps the new element last. 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 5400W/240V electrical rating, nickel-chromium coil composition, ceramic insulator mounting, and terminal configuration of the original WP3387747 heating element used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and Roper dryers.

WP40111201 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Drum Belt The WP40111201 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM drum belt for full-size Whirlpool-built dryers. The belt is a long, slender loop that wraps all the way around the outside of the drum, passes around the tension (idler) pulley, and loops around the drive motor pulley. This belt is the sole mechanical connection between the motor and the drum — there is no gear or direct coupling — so when it breaks or slips off, the dryer behaves in a very specific way: the console lights up, the motor runs, the blower moves air, but the drum sits still. Open the door and spin the drum by hand and it will turn freely with no resistance. This belt measures 93-3/8 inches long and 3/8 inch wide, with a 5-rib multi-groove profile. Belts fail from age and heat: the rubber hardens over years of thermal cycling, the ribs glaze over and begin slipping under a wet load, and eventually the belt cracks through or snaps outright. A screeching or squealing noise, a rhythmic thump timed to drum rotation, fraying at the edges, or black rubber dust in the cabinet are all signs a belt is near the end of its life. As a genuine OEM part, the WP40111201 is manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It directly replaces 40111201, WP40111201VP, 14218936, 40051501, 40051502, 59174, 821089, AP6009126, PS11742271, and R0606549. Quick Answer The WP40111201 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Drum Belt fixes full-size Whirlpool-built dryers where the motor runs but the drum won't turn, the drum spins freely by hand, or the dryer screeches, squeals, or thumps during operation. 93-3/8" long, 3/8" wide, 5-rib profile.

Because the compatible model list spans many years and revisions, always verify your full model number against your dryer's data label before ordering. Note: Whirlpool and Maytag use more than one length of drum belt across their dryer lineups, and belts of a similar rib count and width are not automatically interchangeable. This belt is 93-3/8" long — it is NOT the same belt as our 100"-long Y312959 belt used on other Maytag/Whirlpool platforms. A belt that's too long or too short for your drum will slip, walk off the pulley, or fail to seat properly. Measure your old belt or verify your model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

On a gas model, also close the gas shutoff valve before moving the cabinet. Wear work gloves — sheet metal edges inside the cabinet are sharp. Pull off the lint trap and remove the screws securing the top panel, then raise the panel and support it with a block of wood. Remove the rear access panel to locate the motor, blower wheel, and belt. Photograph how the old belt routes around the drum, the tension pulley, and the motor pulley before removing anything — if the belt is already broken, note that the grooved side of this belt rides against the motor pulley, with the smooth back facing the drum. Loosen and remove the motor mount, lift the motor slightly, and slide the old belt free. The front panel typically needs to come off as well to fully access the drum. Vacuum out accumulated lint while the cabinet is open — lint buildup around the motor and idler is what cooks belts prematurely. Place the new belt around the drum, seat it in the polished wear track left by the old belt, then route it around the tension pulley and around the motor pulley. Useful trick: tape the belt loosely to the drum with a strip of masking tape before repositioning the motor, so it doesn't slide off while you work. Re-secure the motor mount, then rotate the drum by hand several full turns and confirm the belt tracks straight and stays centered without walking toward an edge. While you're in there, spin the tension pulley and each drum roller by hand — if any is noisy, gritty, or has play, replace it now, since a seized pulley or worn roller will destroy the new belt quickly. Reassemble the front and rear panels and the top panel, restore power, and run a short empty cycle listening for squeal or thump before loading it. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 5/16" nut driver, flat-blade screwdriver, putty knife, masking tape, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions How do I confirm the belt is broken and not the motor? With the dryer unplugged, open the door and try to spin the drum by hand. An intact belt gives firm resistance, because you're turning the motor and idler through the belt. If the drum coasts freely like a bicycle wheel, the belt is broken or has jumped off its pulleys. Sound is the other tell: with a broken belt the motor hums and the blower whooshes normally, so the dryer sounds like it's running perfectly while the drum sits still. A failed motor usually buzzes and does nothing, or trips the breaker outright. What's the difference between WP40111201 and 40111201? They are the same belt across production revisions. 40111201 was the long-running legacy Whirlpool number and WP40111201 is the current number carrying the "WP" prefix Whirlpool adopted. WP40111201VP is a variant packaging code for the same belt. If your dryer's parts diagram or the old belt itself shows any of these numbers, this listing is the correct replacement. The remaining cross-references (14218936, 40051501, 40051502, 59174, 821089, AP6009126, PS11742271, R0606549) are catalog identifiers used by various parts distributors for the same belt. Is this the same belt as your Y312959 listing? No. This belt is 93-3/8" long, while the Y312959 belt in our catalog is 100" long — the two are used on different Maytag/Whirlpool dryer platforms and are not interchangeable. Both share a similar 5-rib profile and grooves-against-motor-pulley orientation, which is exactly why they're easy to confuse. Always check your model number or measure your old belt's length before ordering either one. Which way do the grooves face on this belt? On this Whirlpool platform, the grooved (ribbed) side of the belt rides against the motor pulley, with the smooth back of the belt facing the drum. This is the same orientation as our Y312959 belt, but it is the opposite of some other manufacturers' platforms — for example, Frigidaire's 134719300 belt runs with the grooves facing down against the drum instead. Always confirm orientation for your specific brand and platform, and photograph the old belt before removing it whenever possible. The dryer squeals but the drum still turns. Belt or something else? Could be either, and it's worth diagnosing before you order. A glazed or hardening belt squeals as it slips on the motor pulley, usually loudest at startup and under a heavy wet load. But a dry tension pulley bearing makes a very similar squeal, and worn drum rollers add a low rumble underneath. With the cabinet open, spin the tension pulley and each roller by hand — they should turn smoothly and silently. If they're gritty, noisy, or have play, replace them along with the belt, since they share the same teardown and you'd otherwise be opening the dryer twice. 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 93-3/8" length, 3/8" width, and 5-rib profile of the drum belt originally installed in your Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, or related dryer.

XPARTCO EXP445 Dryer Repair Kit Replaces 4581EL2002C, 4400EL2001F, 4561EL3002A The XPARTCO EXP445 is a complete aftermarket dryer maintenance kit for LG-built dryers sold under the LG and Kenmore brands, bundling the three components that most commonly wear out together as a dryer ages: the drum support rollers, the drive belt, and the idler pulley. Rather than ordering these parts one at a time as each fails, this kit lets you service the whole drum support and drive system in a single repair — the recommended approach once any one of these parts shows wear, since they all take similar stress and tend to fail in the same general time frame. This kit includes 4 drum support rollers with metal shafts and high-strength bearings, 1 reinforced rubber drive belt, and 1 idler pulley assembly. It directly replaces roller numbers 4581EL2002L, 4581EL2002H, 4581EL2002C, 4581EL2002A, 4581EL2002D, 4581EL2002E, 4581EL3001A, 4581EL3001C, 4581EL3001F, AGM75510755, AP7220429, PS17269866; belt numbers 4400EL2001F, 4400EL2001A, 4400EL2001C, 4400EL2001E, 4115028, AP5972814, PS11705916; and idler pulley numbers 4561EL3002A, 4561EL3002B, AH3523033, EA3523033, AP4438243, PS3523033. Installs in 60–90 minutes with basic hand tools. Quick Answer The XPARTCO EXP445 Dryer Repair Kit fixes LG and Kenmore (LG-built) dryers with a loud rumbling/squeaking noise, a slipping or squealing belt, or a drum that won't turn — the classic signs that the drum support and drive system need a complete service.

Remove the front panel (typically held by spring clips or screws behind the door frame) and carefully lift the drum out, supporting it so it doesn't drop or scratch the cabinet. With the drum removed, replace all 4 drum support rollers on their shafts, securing each with its retaining nut/washer. Slip the old belt off the motor pulley and remove the old idler pulley from its mounting bracket. Install the new idler pulley, then route the new belt around the drum and motor pulley exactly as the old one was routed (photograph the belt routing before removal) — the belt typically threads under the idler pulley with the ribbed side against the drum. Reinstall the drum onto the new rollers, verify the belt sits centered and properly tensioned, and reinstall the front panel. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm quiet, smooth operation. Tools needed: nut driver or socket set, putty knife (for spring clips, if applicable), and a camera or phone to document belt routing before disassembly. Frequently Asked Questions Why buy a full kit instead of just the failed part? The rollers, belt, and idler pulley all experience similar wear over the dryer's life and tend to fail within a similar timeframe of each other. Since the drum has to come out to access any one of these parts, most technicians and experienced DIYers replace all three at once — it costs less in total labor and time than doing three separate repairs as each part fails one after another. My dryer runs but the drum doesn't turn — is this the kit I need? Yes, in most cases. A drum that doesn't turn while the motor runs is almost always caused by a broken drive belt or a seized idler pulley. Since this kit includes both, along with the rollers that are commonly worn by the time the belt fails, it addresses the full drive system in one repair. Will this fit my Whirlpool, GE, or Samsung dryer? No — this kit is specific to the LG-built roller/belt/pulley platform used in LG and select Kenmore dryers. Other brands use different roller, belt, and pulley designs that this kit will not fit. Confirm your appliance model number before ordering. Do I need to photograph the belt routing before removing the old one? Yes, strongly recommended. LG dryer belts route around the drum and motor pulley in a specific path, often threading under the idler pulley in a particular orientation. Photographing the routing before removal makes reinstallation straightforward and avoids a belt that runs off-track or slips after reassembly.

EXP653 Dryer Idler Pulley and Belt Set Replaces 6602-001655, DC93-00634A The EXP653 is an aftermarket replacement drum belt and idler pulley set for Samsung electric dryers, and also fits select Kenmore, Amana, and Maytag models built on the Samsung platform. These two components work together: the drum belt wraps around the drum and motor pulley to transmit rotation and keep the drum tumbling, while the idler pulley rides against the belt to maintain proper tension so it doesn't slip or sag during operation. Over time, the belt wears, cracks, or glazes over, and the idler pulley's bearing wears out, causing it to spin roughly or seize. Because these two parts work together in the same drive path and tend to wear on a similar timeline, they're commonly sold and replaced as a set. Symptoms of failure include the dryer not starting, the drum not tumbling or spinning, and noise issues such as squealing or grinding during operation. It directly replaces 6602-001655, 6602-001314, 5PH2337, EXP645, PD00002012, EAP2407938, AP4373659, PS4133825 (drum belt), and DC93-00634A, DC97-07509B, DC61-01230B, DC96-00882B, DC96-00882C, 4455850, PD00032419, EAP11771601, AP6038887, and PS11771601 (idler pulley).

Wear work gloves. Remove the top and front panels of the dryer to access the drum, belt, and idler pulley. Remove the old drum belt from around the drum and motor pulley. Remove the old idler pulley from its mounting bracket. Install the new EXP653 idler pulley in the same position, making sure it spins freely by hand before continuing. Route and install the new drum belt correctly around the drum and motor pulley, matching the original path exactly, and re-tension it through the idler pulley. Reinstall the drum if it was removed, then reassemble the front and top panels. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm quiet, smooth operation with the drum tumbling normally and no squealing or grinding noise. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, Phillips screwdriver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My dryer won't start. Could that really be the belt or pulley? Yes, on some models a broken belt or seized idler pulley can prevent the dryer from starting a cycle at all, since certain safety switches rely on normal drum movement or belt tension to allow the cycle to proceed. If your dryer hums or clicks but won't fully start, or starts and immediately stops, this set is worth checking alongside more obvious suspects like the door switch. Do I need to replace both the belt and the pulley, or just the one that failed? You can replace just the failed component if you've confirmed which one is actually bad, but these two parts share the same drive path and tend to wear out around the same time — a seized pulley can accelerate belt wear, and a worn belt puts extra strain on the pulley. Replacing both together, since you'll already have the dryer open, helps avoid a second teardown soon after. My dryer squeals during operation. Is that this set? Yes, squealing or grinding noise is one of the most common symptoms addressed by this belt and pulley set, typically caused by a worn idler pulley bearing or a belt that's slipping due to lost tension. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement set built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the belt length, rib pattern, and pulley design of the original 6602-001655 belt and DC93-00634A idler pulley used in compatible Samsung, Kenmore, Amana, and Maytag electric dryers.

Wear work gloves. This repair is best approached from the top down: remove the top of the unit first, which gives more room to get the dryer tub out. Remove the two screws from the vented plate on the back of the machine to access and undo the old belt. Since this is a stackable washer/dryer combo, also remove the white plate on the front between the washer and dryer sections for full access. Locate the old belt connecting the motor pulley to the drum and remove it. Fit the new 137292700 belt around the drum and motor pulley in the same path as the old one, making sure it seats correctly and is properly tensioned. Reassemble the front plate, vented back plate, and top of the unit. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the drum tumbles smoothly with no banging or unusual noise. Tools needed: putty knife, screwdriver set, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions The motor is running but the drum won't turn. Is this the belt I need? Yes, this is the classic and most reliable sign of a broken drum belt. If you can hear the motor running normally but the drum itself stays still, the belt has likely dried out and broken, no longer connecting the motor's rotation to the drum. Is this the same as a standalone Frigidaire dryer belt? No, this belt is specifically sized and profiled for Frigidaire-style stacked laundry center units, where the washer and dryer are combined into one appliance. It's a different part from standalone Frigidaire dryer belts used on separate dryers. Confirm your unit type and model number before ordering. Is this a difficult repair? It's a moderate repair since it involves removing the top of the laundry center unit, the vented back plate, and the front plate between the washer and dryer sections to get full access to the belt. One customer described working from the top down as the easiest approach, since it gives more room to remove the dryer tub. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original length, width, and rib pattern of the multi-rib drum belt originally installed in your laundry center.
