17438200000109 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Heating Element Assembly The 17438200000109 is a Genuine OEM Midea replacement dryer heating element assembly compatible with a wide range of Midea and Insignia electric dryers, including the MLE41N1AWW, MLE43A3AWW, MLE47A3AGG, MLE47C3AWW, MLE47C4AWW, MLE47R5BWW, MLTE37N1BWW, CDE41N1AW, CLADE67W, LE43A3AWW, MDD160A2301E1305, and Insignia NS-FDRE67WH8A-C series. The heating element uses electrical resistance to generate the heat that warms air as it circulates through the dryer drum, evaporating moisture from wet clothes. Without a functioning heating element, the dryer will tumble and run normally but produce no heat, leaving clothes damp at the end of a cycle. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Midea to factory specifications, the 17438200000109 is the complete heater assembly housing. It directly replaces 302461060002 and MDA17438200000109 (alternate catalog references for the same assembly). Note: when an electric dryer heating element fails due to overheating, the paired high-limit thermostat (Midea 17400513000460) is often stressed as well — inspecting or replacing it at the same time is recommended. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools. Quick Answer The 17438200000109 Genuine OEM Midea Dryer Heating Element Assembly fixes Midea and Insignia electric dryers that tumble normally but produce no heat, dry unevenly, or take much longer than usual to dry a load.

Pull the dryer away from the wall and remove the rear service panel to expose the heating element housing. Take a photo of the wiring before disconnecting anything — this is important since the high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off wiring are both in the same area as the element leads and it's easy to mix up terminals. Disconnect the high-limit thermostat/thermal cut-off wiring and the element leads from the old heating element assembly. Remove the mounting screws securing the element housing and slide the old assembly out. Install the new 17438200000109 assembly in the same orientation, reconnect all wires snugly to the correct terminals as documented in your photo, and reinstall the mounting screws. Reassemble the rear service panel, restore power, and run a test heat cycle to confirm the dryer is heating properly. Tip: while the rear panel is open, inspect the high-limit thermostat (Midea 17400513000460) — if the original element failed due to overheating, the thermostat may also need replacement. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver. Frequently Asked Questions How do I know if my dryer's heating element has failed? The clearest sign is a dryer that tumbles and runs through a complete cycle normally but produces little or no heat, leaving clothes damp or only partially dried. You may also notice the dryer taking significantly longer than usual to dry a load as it tries to compensate with extended tumbling time. Visually inspecting the element after removing the rear panel can reveal burn marks, breaks in the coil, or visible arcing damage. A multimeter continuity test on the disconnected element will also confirm failure — a working element shows continuity, while a failed element reads an open circuit. Should I replace the thermostat at the same time as the heating element? It's a good idea to inspect it. When a heating element fails due to overheating — rather than simple end-of-life wear — the paired high-limit thermostat (Midea 17400513000460) located in the same area can also be stressed by the same heat event. Since the rear panel must already be open to replace the element, checking the thermostat's continuity at the same time is a quick step that can prevent a repeat repair if the thermostat is also on the verge of failing. What is the difference between 17438200000109 and 302461060002? These are the same heating element assembly. 302461060002 and MDA17438200000109 are alternate catalog reference numbers used by some parts suppliers for the identical Midea heater assembly. If your dryer's parts diagram or supplier listing shows either of these numbers, the 17438200000109 is the correct part and this listing covers all three references. Does this element fit my Insignia dryer? Yes — Insignia is a Best Buy house brand, and several Insignia electric dryer models (including the NS-FDRE67WH8A-C and NS-TDRE67W1) are manufactured by Midea and use the same internal components, including this heating element assembly. Always verify your specific Insignia 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 heating element assembly installed in compatible Midea and Insignia electric dryers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

XPARTCO W10820036 Washer / Dryer Door Switch The XPARTCO W10820036 is an aftermarket replacement door switch used on select Whirlpool-built combination washer/dryer units. This switch is a safety interlock: it detects whether the door is fully closed and latched, and it signals the control board that it is safe to run the motor, heater, and water valves. On a combo unit, this single interlock typically governs both the wash and dry portions of the cycle, since both functions share the same drum and door. If the switch fails to detect a closed door — or fails electrically even when the door is closed properly — the control will refuse to start the cycle, or will stop mid-cycle if the switch drops out while running. Typical failure modes for a part like this include a cracked or worn switch lever that no longer depresses fully when the door closes, internal contacts that have pitted or burned out from years of cycling, and a housing that has come loose from its mounting bracket so the plunger no longer lines up with the door strike. A functioning door switch should click firmly when the door closes and should show continuity across its terminals only when the lever is pressed. Quick Answer The XPARTCO W10820036 Washer/Dryer Door Switch is a door safety interlock switch for select Whirlpool-built combination washer/dryer units. It fixes units that won't start with the door closed, stop mid-cycle, or fail to register the door as closed even when it's latched properly. Note: this listing was built from general parts knowledge because current supplier and cross-reference data was not available at build time — see the note below before publishing. Common Problems This Part Fixes Washer/dryer combo won't start even though the door is fully closed Cycle stops partway through, as if the door had been opened Door doesn't feel like it's "clicking" or latching the way it used to Console shows a door-related error or won't advance past the door-closed step Intermittent operation — sometimes starts, sometimes doesn't, depending on how the door is closed Visibly cracked, loose, or broken switch housing or lever Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models.

No additional cross-reference numbers have been confirmed for this part yet. If you have a superseded or alternate number for your appliance, contact our support team and we will verify compatibility before you order. Compatibility This door switch is intended for select Whirlpool-built washer/dryer combination units, where a single door and drum serve both the wash and dry functions.

Key Features Aftermarket replacement door safety switch for Whirlpool-built washer/dryer combo units Detects whether the door is closed and latched before allowing the wash or dry cycle to run Resolves "won't start with door closed," "stops mid-cycle," and "door not detected" symptoms Direct drop-in replacement for the original W10820036 switch — no modification required Aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards Product Specifications Part Number XPW10820036 OEM Part Number W10820036 Part Type Washer/Dryer Combo Door Safety Switch Condition Aftermarket Replacement Application Whirlpool-Built Washer/Dryer Combination Units Function Door-closed safety interlock for wash and dry cycles Quantity 1 switch Compatible Brand Whirlpool (combo platform) Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug The Unit Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access to the door switch on combo units is typically through the front or top control panel — photograph the wiring harness before disconnecting it so you can match it exactly on reassembly. Confirm the new switch's lever aligns with the door strike before securing the mounting screws, and test for a firm, positive click when the door closes before restoring power and running a cycle. If your unit's service manual is available, follow its specific access and mounting steps rather than relying solely on general guidance. Frequently Asked Questions My combo unit won't start. Is this definitely the door switch? It's one of the most common causes when a unit refuses to start with the door visibly closed. Before replacing the switch, confirm the door is latching fully and that nothing (a stray sock, a bent strike bracket) is preventing it from closing all the way. If the door latches firmly but the unit still won't start, or a multimeter shows no continuity across the switch terminals when the lever is pressed, the switch itself is the likely culprit. Does this switch control both the washer and dryer functions? On combination washer/dryer units, yes — a single door and drum typically serve both functions, so one door switch acts as the safety interlock for both the wash and dry portions of the cycle. 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 mounting, switching function, and door-interlock behavior of the original W10820036 switch used in compatible combination washer/dryer units.

XPARTCO W10112954 Dryer Drum Belt Replaces WPW10112954 The XPARTCO W10112954 is an aftermarket replacement drum belt for Whirlpool and Maytag electric and gas dryers, and also fits select KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models. This belt circles the drum and attaches to the motor pulley, transferring the motor's rotation to keep the drum spinning and tumbling clothes evenly throughout the cycle. Measures approximately 92-1/2" long, flat design with 5 ribs and 4 grooves for a secure grip and smooth rotation. Over time, the belt can stretch, lose tension, or break from regular use and age. If your dryer's motor is running but the drum isn't turning, this belt has likely worn out or broken. Symptoms of a failing belt include the drum not spinning, unusual noises like squealing or rubbing, extended drying times, or unexpected stops mid-cycle. It directly replaces AP6015116, PS11748388, EAP11748388, and 1447719. Quick Answer The XPARTCO W10112954 Dryer Drum Belt fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore electric and gas dryers where the drum isn't spinning, or where you hear squealing/rubbing noise or notice extended drying times. Approximately 92-1/2" long, 5 ribs, 4 grooves. Replaces AP6015116, PS11748388, EAP11748388, 1447719. Since this is a bigger repair requiring the dryer to be mostly taken apart, it's a good time to also inspect or replace the idler pulley, which shares the same duty cycle as the belt. Common Problems This Part Fixes Motor runs but the drum won't turn Squealing or rubbing noise during operation Extended or inconsistent drying times Dryer stopping unexpectedly mid-cycle Belt stretched, loose, or visibly worn Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models.

Note: Always verify your full model number before ordering, since Whirlpool uses several different belt lengths across its dryer lineup. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure. Key Features Aftermarket replacement drum belt (Made in USA) — circles the drum and attaches to the motor pulley Resolves "drum not spinning," "squealing or rubbing noise," and "extended drying time" symptoms Approximately 92-1/2" long, flat with 5 ribs and 4 grooves Direct drop-in replacement matching the original length and profile Replaces AP6015116, PS11748388, EAP11748388, and 1447719 Compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore electric and gas dryers Aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards Requires basic hand tools and some dryer disassembly Product Specifications Part Number W10112954XP OEM Part Number WPW10112954 Part Type Dryer Drum Belt Condition Aftermarket Replacement Length Approx. 92-1/2" Profile Flat, 5 ribs, 4 grooves Function Transmits motor rotation to spin the drum Repair Difficulty Moderate — dryer largely disassembled for access Quantity 1 drum belt Compatible Brands Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Kenmore Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — This Is A Bigger Repair Requiring Significant Disassembly Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Replacing this belt is a larger project than some other dryer repairs, since it typically requires taking the dryer largely apart to access the drum, motor pulley, and idler pulley. Remove the top and front panels, then the drum, to reach the belt path. Release tension at the idler pulley and remove the old belt from the motor pulley and drum. Note the routing path before fully removing any remnants if the belt was broken. Feed the new W10112954 belt around the drum, then through the idler pulley and motor pulley, matching the original path exactly. Reinstall the drum, pull the belt tight, and re-tension the idler pulley. Rotate the drum by hand to confirm smooth movement before closing everything up. Reassemble the front and top panels. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm quiet, smooth tumbling. Tools needed: nut driver, Phillips screwdriver, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My dryer's motor runs but the drum won't turn. Is this the belt? Yes, this is the classic sign of a broken or badly worn drum belt. If the motor sounds like it's running normally but the drum stays still, the belt has likely stretched beyond its ability to grip, or has snapped and is no longer transmitting rotation from the motor to the drum. Should I replace the idler pulley at the same time as this belt? It's worth considering. Since replacing this belt requires a fair amount of disassembly to access the drum and pulley system, and the idler pulley shares the same duty cycle as the belt, one customer specifically ordered both together and reported a perfect fit for each. Replacing both at once can save you from needing to open the dryer back up again soon after if the pulley is also nearing the end of its life. Is this a difficult repair? It's more involved than some dryer repairs — one customer specifically noted that "replacing the dryer belt is a big project, need to take the whole thing apart." Basic hand tools like a nut driver and Phillips screwdriver are all that's required, but budget more time for this repair than a simple part swap. 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 length, rib pattern, and groove design of the original WPW10112954 drum belt used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, and related electric and gas dryers.

WE04X36457 Genuine OEM GE Dryer Timer The WE04X36457 is a genuine GE OEM electromechanical timer for GE electric and gas dryers. This timer is the sequencing control behind the dryer's operating cycle, using an internal motor-driven mechanism to advance the dryer through each stage — tumbling, heating, and cool-down — at the correct intervals for the selected cycle length. Over time, the timer's internal gears or contacts can wear out or jam. A failing timer produces a range of symptoms depending on which function is affected: the dryer may not advance through the cycle, may not shut off when it should, may not start at all, or may run with no heat if the timer's contacts controlling the heat circuit are affected. This part carries the updated designation EAPX36457X1, which fits both old and new production serials. It directly replaces CKDX36457X, TMD1EM32, 234D2377P006, AP7243859, PS17873930, FIX17873930, E190094, 250426, and 19-50425501. Quick Answer The WE04X36457 Genuine OEM GE Dryer Timer fixes GE electric and gas dryers that won't advance through the cycle, won't shut off, won't start, or run with no heat. Replaces CKDX36457X, TMD1EM32, 234D2377P006, AP7243859, PS17873930, FIX17873930, E190094, 250426, 19-50425501. GE uses many similarly-numbered WE04X-prefix timers across different dryer models — always confirm your exact part number or model before ordering, since these timers are not interchangeable across models. Common Problems This Part Fixes Timer won't advance — dryer stays stuck at one point in the cycle Dryer won't shut off, keeps running after the cycle should have ended Dryer won't start at all Dryer runs with no heat or insufficient heat Unusual noise from the timer area during operation Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item. Replaces Part Numbers This dryer timer directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers: WE04X36457, 19-50425501, 234D2377P006, 250426, E190094, FIX17873930, TMD1EM32, AGE143241, AP7243859, PD00092132, PS17873930. If your part number is not listed above, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility. Compatibility This dryer timer is compatible with select GE electric and gas dryers, including model numbers GTD38EASW0WS, GTD38GASW0WS, GTX38EASW0WS, and GTX38GASW0WS. Note: GE uses a large number of similarly-numbered WE04X-prefix timers across its dryer lineup, including WE04X20089, WE04X24549, WE04X24550, WE04X25280, WE04X25586, and WE04X20415, each fitting a different set of models. These are not interchangeable with this WE04X36457 timer. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure. Key Features Genuine GE OEM part — factory-specified timing mechanism and terminal layout Electromechanical timer sequences tumbling, heating, and cool-down through the cycle Resolves "won't advance," "won't shut off," "won't start," and "no heat" symptoms caused by timer failure Updated designation EAPX36457X1 fits both old and new production serials Direct drop-in replacement matching the original mounting and terminal layout Replaces CKDX36457X, TMD1EM32, 234D2377P006, AP7243859, PS17873930, FIX17873930, E190094, 250426, and 19-50425501 Compatible with GE electric and gas dryers Genuine OEM replacement — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance Product Specifications Part Number WE04X36457 Alternate/Updated Designation EAPX36457X1 Part Type Dryer Timer (Electromechanical) Condition Genuine OEM Brand GE Controls Tumbling, heating, and cool-down sequencing Repair Difficulty Easy to Moderate Quantity 1 dryer timer Compatible Brand GE Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Photograph Wiring Before Disconnecting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access the timer through the control console or back panel depending on your model. Photograph each wire's terminal position before disconnecting anything, since a dryer timer typically has multiple wires and mixing them up can cause a malfunction after reinstallation. Remove the mounting screws or clips securing the old timer, then disconnect its wiring. Install the new WE04X36457 in the same position, reconnecting each wire to its original terminal exactly as photographed. Secure the timer in its mounting position and reassemble the console or panel. Restore power and run a full test cycle to confirm the dryer advances properly through tumbling, heating, and shutoff at the correct times. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver or nut driver (model-dependent), work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My dryer won't shut off and keeps running. Is this the timer? Yes, this is a well-documented symptom of a failing timer. If the internal gear motor or contacts jam, the timer can fail to advance to the "off" position at the end of the cycle, leaving the dryer running continuously past when it should have stopped. My old part number doesn't say WE04X36457. Is this still the right timer? If your old timer's part number is CKDX36457X, TMD1EM32, or 234D2377P006, or one of the other numbers listed in our cross-reference section, yes — this WE04X36457 timer, also designated EAPX36457X1, is the current replacement and fits both older and newer production serials. There are so many similar-looking GE timer part numbers. How do I make sure I order the right one? GE has released many timers with very similar WE04X-prefix numbers for different dryer models, and they are not interchangeable despite the resemblance. The safest approach is to match your dryer's full model number against this listing's compatibility, or check the exact part number printed on your old timer, rather than relying on how similar the numbers look. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original timing mechanism and terminal layout of the timer designed for your dryer.

XPARTCO 341241 Dryer Drum Belt The XPARTCO 341241 is an aftermarket replacement dryer drum belt compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool-family dryers including Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, Roper, Admiral, Jenn-Air, Estate, Magic Chef, Crosley, Inglis, Norge, Modern Maid, Hardwick, Caloric, and Ikea. The drum belt wraps around the outside of the dryer drum, loops around the motor pulley and idler pulley, and drives the drum to rotate during every drying cycle. Without a functioning belt, the drum cannot spin and clothes will not tumble or dry. Made from high-strength rubber with reinforced ribs, this belt measures 92-1/4 inches long x 1/4 inch wide and features 4 ribs and 3 grooves. It is flat on one side and ribbed on the other, and is built to resist cracking, stretching, and wear under the high heat and repeated tension cycles of daily dryer use. It also replaces some 5-rib, 4-groove belts. Installs in 30–45 minutes with basic hand tools.

Remove the lint screen, then unscrew the two Phillips screws inside the lint filter housing. Use a putty knife 2 inches from each front corner to release the top panel clips and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to access the drum. Release belt tension at the idler pulley, lift the drum slightly, and slide the old belt off. Loop the new 341241 belt around the drum with the ribbed side facing down (toward the drum). Route the belt around the idler pulley and motor pulley — consult your model's service manual or a model-specific video for the correct belt path. Reassemble and run a test cycle. Tip: While the drum is out, inspect and replace the idler pulley (691366) and drum rollers (349241T) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool. Frequently Asked Questions How does the 341241 differ from the W10205415 and 6602-001655 belts? All three are 92-inch dryer drum belts, but they differ in width and rib count. The 341241 is 1/4" wide with 4 ribs and 3 grooves. The W10205415 is 3/8" wide with 5 ribs and 4 grooves. The 6602-001655 is 5/16" wide with 5 ribs and 4 grooves designed for Samsung dryers. Always match the part number to your specific model — do not substitute based on appearance alone. Will this belt fit my Kenmore dryer? Many Kenmore dryers — especially the popular 110-series — are manufactured by Whirlpool and use the 341241 belt. Check your model number against the compatibility list and contact our support team if you need help confirming the fit before ordering. How do I know if my drum belt needs to be replaced? The most obvious sign is that the dryer motor hums but the drum does not spin. You may also notice a thumping or slapping sound during operation, a burning rubber smell, or clothes that are damp after a full cycle. Open the dryer cabinet to visually confirm if the belt is broken, frayed, or stretched. Should I also replace the idler pulley and drum rollers? Yes — since the dryer is already disassembled, it is highly recommended to inspect and replace the idler pulley (691366) and drum support rollers (349241T) at the same time. These parts wear at a similar rate and replacing all three together — often sold as a repair kit — prevents having to disassemble the dryer again in the near future. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is made from high-strength rubber to match the dimensions and performance of the original 341241 belt.

XPARTCO WE04X24719 Dryer Start Button The XPARTCO WE04X24719 is an aftermarket replacement power and start button assembly for GE and Hotpoint dryers. You push it to power up the dryer's controls and begin the drying cycle. When the button is cracked, stuck, or no longer registers a press, the dryer won't start, even though the rest of the machine is fine. This is a direct-fit aftermarket replacement for the original GE button assembly. The button mounts through the control panel and onto the switch shaft behind it, so if the dryer still won't start with a new button, the push-to-start switch itself may also need to be checked. Quick Answer The XPARTCO WE04X24719 Start Button fixes a GE or Hotpoint dryer whose start button is broken, stuck, or doesn't start the dryer when pressed. Classic symptom: you press start and nothing happens, or the button feels loose, cracked, or no longer springs back. Common Problems This Part Fixes Dryer won't start when the start button is pressed Start button is cracked, broken, or missing Button feels loose, stuck, or doesn't spring back Button no longer lines up with the switch behind the panel Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item. Replaces Part Numbers This start button assembly directly replaces the following part number: WE04X24719, AGE24894, AP6034220, EAP11766637, 4587500, PD00046802, PS11766637 No other GE part numbers were confirmed for this button. Confirm against your dryer's parts diagram, or contact our support team, if your model calls out a different number. Compatibility This start button is listed for GE and Hotpoint dryers, including these examples: 5TX62E9ST0WS, ETD48EASW0WB GTD33EASK0WW, GTD42EASJ2WW, GTD48EASW0WB GTD45GASJ0WS (gas) Note: The models above are a sample of about 40 listed dryers, not a full list. This is the button assembly that fits onto the switch shaft, not the switch itself. Confirm your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team to verify fit before ordering. Key Features Direct-fit aftermarket power and start button assembly for GE and Hotpoint dryers Restores a working push-to-start button Fits electric and gas dryer models Straightforward repair, typically 30 minutes to 1 hour Product Specifications Part Number XPWE04X24719 OEM Part Number WE04X24719 Part Type Dryer Power and Start Button Assembly Condition Aftermarket Replacement Application GE & Hotpoint Dryers Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer before beginning, and shut off the gas supply first on gas models. Wear work gloves, as the cabinet edges are sharp. The button is held to the switch behind the control panel, so you will need to remove the back panel, the wires, and the switch to take the old button out through the panel, as shown in your model's service guide. Note where each wire connects before removing it. Fit the new button through the panel onto the switch shaft, then reassemble in reverse order. Frequently Asked Questions My dryer won't start when I press the button. Is this the part I need? If the button is cracked, loose, or doesn't press the switch, yes. If the button looks fine, the push-to-start switch behind it, the door switch, or a thermal fuse can cause the same symptom, so check those too. Does this include the switch? This listing is for the button assembly that fits onto the switch shaft, not the switch. If the switch itself has failed, it is a separate part. Do I need to take the dryer apart? Yes. The button is installed through the control panel, so the back panel, wires, and switch have to come off to replace it. Customers report about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Will this fit my dryer? It is listed for many GE and Hotpoint dryers, but the model list above is only a sample. Check your model number against your parts diagram, or contact our support team and we'll verify it before you order.

XPARTCO 12138200000320 Dryer Door Catch The XPARTCO 12138200000320 is an aftermarket replacement dryer door catch compatible with select Midea and Insignia dryers. The door catch is a small plastic spring-clip mechanism mounted on the dryer door that snaps over the door strike o12138200000320 n the cabinet opening to hold the door firmly closed during operation. When the door is closed and latched, the door switch is activated — signaling the control board that it is safe to run. When the catch breaks, cracks, or loses its spring tension, the door will not stay closed, the door switch will not activate properly, and the dryer will either not start or will stop mid-cycle. This is a snap-in replacement catch — the color or exact finish may vary by production run. It directly replaces AP7152622 and PS18161385. Sold individually. Installs in under 5 minutes — no tools required in most cases. Quick Answer The XPARTCO 12138200000320 Dryer Door Catch fixes Midea and Insignia dryers where the door won't stay closed, pops open during a cycle, or where the dryer won't start because the door switch isn't being activated. Snap-in installation — no tools required, installs in under 5 minutes. Sold individually. Replaces AP7152622, PS18161385. Common Problems This Part Fixes Dryer door will not stay closed during the drying cycle Door pops open mid-cycle, stopping the dryer Dryer will not start — door switch not being activated by a worn or broken catch Door feels loose or does not click shut firmly when closed Door catch visibly cracked, broken, or missing Dryer requires the door to be held or pushed to stay running Replaces Part Numbers This door catch directly replaces the following part numbers: 12138200000320, AP7152622, PS18161385. Contact our support team with your model number if you need confirmation before ordering. Compatibility This door catch is compatible with select dryers from the following brands: Midea dryers (gas and electric — select models) Insignia dryers (select models) Always verify your appliance model number before ordering. Contact our support team if you're unsure. Key Features Holds the dryer door closed and activates the door switch so the dryer can run safely Snap-in installation — no tools required in most cases; installs in under 5 minutes Durable plastic construction — designed to withstand repeated opening and closing Sold individually — one door catch per order Replaces AP7152622 and PS18161385 Aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards Product Specifications Part Number 12138200000320 Part Type Dryer Door Catch (Door Latch Clip) Condition Aftermarket Replacement Application Gas and Electric Dryers Material Plastic Installation Snap-in — no tools required Sold As Single door catch Compatible Brands Midea, Insignia Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning. Open the dryer door and locate the old door catch — it is a small plastic clip mounted on the inside of the door or on the cabinet opening around the door. Press the tabs on the old catch to release it from its mounting slot and pull it free. Note the orientation before removing. Insert the new 12138200000320 catch into the slot in the same orientation and press firmly until it snaps into place. Close the door to confirm it latches securely. Restore power and run a short cycle to verify the door stays closed and the dryer operates normally. Tools needed: None in most cases; a small flat-head screwdriver may help with removal. Frequently Asked Questions What dryers is the 12138200000320 compatible with? The 12138200000320 door catch is used on select Midea and Insignia dryer models. Insignia is a Best Buy house brand whose appliances are manufactured by Midea. Always verify your exact model number before ordering to confirm this catch fits your dryer's door latch assembly. Why won't my dryer start even though I'm closing the door? If the door catch is broken or worn, the door may not be engaging the door switch firmly enough to signal the control board that the door is closed. Most dryers will not run unless the door switch is fully activated. Replacing the 12138200000320 catch restores the firm snap needed to trigger the switch. If replacing the catch does not resolve the start issue, the door switch itself may also need to be checked. Do I need to replace the door strike as well? Not necessarily. In most cases only the door catch (the spring-clip on the door) needs replacement. The door strike (the post or tab on the cabinet that the catch snaps onto) is typically more durable. Inspect the strike for cracks or breakage before ordering — if it is intact, just the 12138200000320 catch is all you need. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Midea OEM part, but is manufactured from durable plastic to match the dimensions and function of the original 12138200000320 door catch.

WP8577891 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer High-Limit Thermostat The WP8577891 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM high-limit thermostat for Whirlpool, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, and Roper dryers. This part combines two functions in a single component: it acts as a safety mechanism that shuts off the heating element when the dryer overheats, and it includes an inlet thermistor that monitors the temperature of the inlet air feeding into the dryer. Rated L260-68F: the heating element cuts out once internal temperature reaches 260°F, and kicks back in once temperature drops to 192°F, a 68°F differential built into the design. Weighing approximately 0.08 lbs, with package dimensions of 4.33" x 3.43" x 0.79". Because this is a safety-critical component, a malfunctioning thermostat can shut off the dryer even when it isn't actually overheating, in addition to producing the more expected overheating symptom if it fails to trip when it should. Symptoms include the dryer overheating, blown thermal fuses, or the dryer shutting off unexpectedly during a cycle. It directly replaces 8577891, 314654, AP6013527, AWP48573, EAP11746753, OEM18040590, L260-68F, L126.7-37.7C, PD00003286, PS11746753.

Wear work gloves. Unscrew and remove the dryer's exhaust vent hose, then use a nut driver to remove the back panel. Locate the high-limit thermostat, typically mounted near the heating element housing. Before removing the old part, test it with a multimeter set to continuity — a healthy thermostat shows continuity; one that doesn't should be replaced. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the wire terminals from the old thermostat, remove its mounting screw, and pull it free. Install the new WP8577891 in the same position, reconnect the wire terminals, and secure the mounting screw. Reattach the back panel and exhaust vent hose. Restore power and run a full test cycle to confirm normal, consistent heating with no premature shutoffs. Tools needed: nut driver, flat-head screwdriver, multimeter, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions How do I know if this thermostat has actually failed before I order one? Test the old thermostat with a multimeter set to continuity before ordering — it's a simple, quick check. One customer specifically noted they wished they had tested the part first: they ordered a replacement, then discovered testing the old one with a multimeter was easy to do and would have confirmed whether they actually needed the new part before buying it. My dryer shuts off even though it doesn't feel like it's overheating. Could this still be the thermostat? Yes. A malfunctioning high-limit thermostat can shut off the dryer even when actual temperatures are normal, not just when the dryer is genuinely running too hot. If your dryer stops mid-cycle without an obvious overheating cause, this thermostat is worth testing. Should I replace other parts at the same time as this thermostat? If your dryer has also blown a thermal fuse, it's worth replacing the fuse and any related thermal cutoff components together with this thermostat, since they often fail from the same underlying overheating cause. Also check your exhaust venting for restrictions while you have the dryer open, since blocked airflow is a common root cause of repeated thermal component failures. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original opening and reset temperatures and mounting configuration of the high-limit thermostat originally installed in your dryer.
