XPARTCO 279838 Dryer Heating Element The XPARTCO 279838 is an aftermarket replacement heating element for Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Estate, Crosley, Admiral, Inglis, KitchenAid, and Jenn-Air 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. This part is often nicknamed the "shorty" because of its compact size compared to the larger, older Whirlpool element it replaced, part number 4391960 — the shorty design is used on dryers with the lint filter positioned on the top right near the control housing. Over years of use, the coil typically fails with a visible break somewhere along its length — a section simply burns through and the circuit opens, cutting off heat entirely. A quick way to check: a healthy element reads approximately 9 to 10 ohms across its terminals with a multimeter; a reading of no resistance (open circuit) confirms the element has failed. This element shares the same dryer platform as our WP3392519 thermal fuse and works alongside a cycling thermostat and high-limit thermostat in the same heating circuit — all commonly checked or replaced together when a dryer stops heating. It directly replaces 279837, WP279837, 2438, 279838VP, 279838A, 3398063, 3398064, 3403585, 8565582, W10724237, AP3094254, AH334313, EA334313, PS334313, and PS3343130. Quick Answer The XPARTCO 279838 Dryer Heating Element fixes Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Estate, Crosley, Admiral, Inglis, KitchenAid, and Jenn-Air electric dryers with no heat, insufficient heat, or drying times that have gotten noticeably longer. Also called the "shorty" element. Replaces 279837, WP279837, 2438, 279838VP, 279838A, 3398063, 3398064, 3403585, 8565582, W10724237, AP3094254, AH334313, EA334313, PS334313, PS3343130. A healthy element reads approximately 9-10 ohms with a multimeter; if the dryer has no heat at all, also check the thermal fuse (such as our WP3392519 listing) before assuming the element is at fault — a blown fuse produces the identical symptom. Common Problems This Part Fixes Dryer runs a full cycle but produces no heat at all Dryer produces some heat, but not enough to dry clothes properly Drying times that have gotten noticeably longer than they used to Clothes coming out cold or barely warm at the end of a cycle Visible break or burned-through section in the heating coil Element that reads no resistance (open circuit) on a multimeter continuity or ohms test Dryer that heats inconsistently, cycling on and off unexpectedly 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, to reach the heater duct/blower housing area where the element is mounted. Before removing anything, inspect the old element visually for a break in the coil — sometimes you can see it directly, or feel it by gently wiggling each section of the coil. If nothing is visibly broken, test with a multimeter: place one probe on each terminal and look for a reading of approximately 9-10 ohms on a good element; no resistance at all confirms the element has failed. Photograph the wiring before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the 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 279838 assembly in the same position, reconnect the wire terminals, and secure the mounting hardware — if the original connection wire shows burning or damage, replace it as well rather than reusing a damaged connector. 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 How do I test whether the element is actually bad? Start with a visual inspection — often you can see a break directly in the coil, or find it by gently wiggling each section to check for a loose or separated point. If nothing is visible, use a multimeter set to ohms and place one probe on each terminal. A good element typically reads approximately 9 to 10 ohms; a reading of no resistance at all (open circuit) confirms the element has failed and needs replacing. My dryer has no heat at all. Should I replace the element first, or check something else? Check the thermal fuse first, since a blown fuse produces the exact same "no heat at all" symptom as a failed heating element and is a cheaper, faster part to test and replace — our WP3392519 listing covers the thermal fuse used on this same dryer platform. If the fuse tests good and the dryer still has no heat, the element itself is the next thing to test. What's the difference between this "shorty" element and the older 4391960? Both are Whirlpool dryer heating elements, but this 279838 is a more compact design used on dryers with the lint filter positioned on the top right near the control housing, while 4391960 is the larger, older element used on earlier Whirlpool dryer platforms. They are not interchangeable, so confirm which style your dryer uses — checking your model number or comparing the physical size of your old element — before ordering. Should I check the connection wire while I'm replacing the element? Yes, it's worth a look. The wire connecting to the element terminals can occasionally show burning or damage if the element was arcing or overheating before it failed. If you notice any discoloration, melting, or damage on the connection wire, replace it along with the element rather than reusing a compromised connector. 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 nickel-chromium coil composition, resistance rating, compact "shorty" form factor, and terminal configuration of the original 279838 heating element used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, and related dryers.

WP694089 Dryer Genuine OEM Blower Wheel The WP694089 is a Genuine OEM replacement dryer blower wheel compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Roper, Estate, Crosley, Inglis, Caloric, Hardwick, and Glenwood 29-inch dryers with a lint filter on top. The blower wheel works together with the drive motor to create the airflow that makes drying possible — it draws heated air through the heating element, pushes it into and through the drum to evaporate moisture from your clothes, and exhausts it out through the vent system. Without a properly functioning blower wheel, airflow drops, drying times increase dramatically, and the dryer may overheat. Measures 8-5/8" in diameter. Mounts on the motor's blower shaft with left-hand threads — to remove the old blower wheel, turn it clockwise (the reverse of standard threading). This blower wheel fits dryers where the motor is mounted in the rear of the cabinet, not the front. Common causes of failure: the internal sleeve wears out over time, allowing the wheel to wobble on the motor shaft; lint, socks, or small clothing articles escape past the lint filter and jam the wheel; or the plastic fins crack and break from age or debris impact. It directly replaces WP694089, WP694089VP, AP6010602, 279500, 279711, 299678, 338840, 343939, 343941, 686172, 695499, DE601, PS11743785, AH383953, EA383953, and PS383953.

Compatibility This blower wheel is compatible with select 29-inch dryers with a lint filter on top from the following brands: Whirlpool dryers — 29" models with lint filter on top and rear-mounted motor (WED, LER, LEQ, LE series and related) Kenmore / Sears dryers — select Whirlpool-built models (110-series) Maytag dryers (select Whirlpool-built models) KitchenAid dryers (select models) Jenn-Air dryers (select models) Amana dryers (select models) Magic Chef dryers (select models) Admiral dryers (select models) Roper dryers (select models) Estate dryers (select models) Crosley, Inglis, Caloric, Hardwick, Glenwood dryers (select Whirlpool-built models) Note: This blower wheel fits dryers where the motor is mounted in the rear of the cabinet (not the front). If your dryer has the motor in the front, this is not the correct blower wheel. Confirm your dryer model number before ordering. Also: before replacing the blower wheel due to noise, check for trapped lint, socks, or small garments caught in the wheel — clearing the debris may resolve the noise without needing a new part. Key Features Dryer blower wheel — draws heated air through the heating element, circulates it through the drum, and exhausts it through the vent system Resolves "takes too long to dry," "loud noise," "weak airflow," "overheating," and "clothes still damp" symptoms when caused by a worn or damaged blower wheel 8-5/8" diameter — matches the original OEM dimensions Left-hand threads — mounts on the motor's blower shaft (turn clockwise to remove, counterclockwise to install) Designed for 29" Whirlpool-built dryers with lint filter on top and rear-mounted motor Replaces WP694089, WP694089VP, AP6010602, 279500, 279711, 299678, 338840, 343939, 343941, 686172, 695499, DE601, PS11743785, AH383953, EA383953, and PS383953 Compatible with Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Roper, Estate, Crosley, Inglis, and more Genuine OEM replacement part.

For gas dryers, also shut off the gas supply. Wear work gloves and safety glasses. Pull the dryer away from the wall. Access the blower wheel by removing the dryer's back panel — remove the screws securing the rear panel and set it aside. Locate the blower housing at the bottom rear of the dryer, connected to the motor. The blower wheel is inside this housing, mounted on the motor's blower shaft. Remove the blower housing cover or clamp to expose the wheel. Important: the blower wheel has left-hand threads. To remove the old blower wheel, turn it clockwise (the opposite of standard threading). If the wheel is stuck on the shaft, hold the motor pulley on the other end of the shaft to prevent it from turning while you unscrew the wheel. If the old wheel's plastic hub has seized on the shaft from age, you may need to use a flat-blade screwdriver to gently pry it — some customers report the old wheel breaks apart during removal, which is fine since you're replacing it. Before installing the new wheel, clean out any lint, debris, socks, or clothing articles from the blower housing. Thread the new 694089 blower wheel onto the motor shaft counterclockwise (remember: left-hand threads — counterclockwise tightens). Tighten firmly by hand. Reassemble the blower housing, reinstall the rear panel, push the dryer back into place, and restore power. Run a test cycle and check airflow at the exhaust vent. Tools needed: Nut driver, Phillips screwdriver, flat-blade screwdriver, work gloves, safety glasses. Frequently Asked Questions My dryer is making a loud thumping or rattling noise — is the blower wheel the cause? It's one of the most common causes of dryer noise, yes. There are two main ways the blower wheel causes noise: first, lint, socks, or small clothing articles can escape past the lint filter and get caught in the wheel, where they hit the housing with each rotation — producing a rhythmic thumping or scraping sound. Second, the wheel's internal sleeve can wear out over time, allowing the wheel to wobble loosely on the motor shaft, which creates a rattling or vibrating noise. Before ordering a new wheel, check for trapped debris first — pull the back panel and inspect the blower housing. Clearing a stuck sock may solve the problem immediately. If the wheel wobbles freely on the shaft or has cracked/broken fins, it needs replacement. Why does the blower wheel have left-hand threads? The left-hand (reverse) threading is by design. The motor shaft spins in a direction that would naturally loosen a standard right-hand threaded wheel over time. By using left-hand threads, the motor's rotation actually tightens the wheel onto the shaft during operation, preventing it from working loose while the dryer runs. This means: turn clockwise to remove the old wheel (opposite of what you'd expect), and turn counterclockwise to tighten the new wheel onto the shaft. Many customers get stuck at this step because they instinctively turn counterclockwise to loosen — so if the wheel seems stuck, try turning it the other way first. My dryer takes forever to dry — is the blower wheel the issue? It can be, but check the easier things first. Long drying times are usually caused by restricted airflow, and the most common culprit is a clogged or kinked exhaust vent hose — clean the entire vent path from the dryer to the outside wall first. Also clean the lint filter and check the lint trap housing for buildup. If the vent system is clear and drying times are still long, the blower wheel is a strong candidate: a worn sleeve that lets the wheel wobble reduces its ability to move air efficiently, and cracked fins reduce airflow even if the wheel still spins. You can test by running the dryer and checking the airflow at the outside exhaust vent — weak or no airflow with a clear vent path points to the blower wheel. Does this fit dryers with the motor in the front? No — the 694089 blower wheel is designed for 29" Whirlpool-platform dryers where the motor is mounted in the rear of the cabinet. If your dryer has the motor in the front, it uses a different blower wheel. The easiest way to confirm: look at the back of the dryer — if you can see the motor and blower housing when the rear panel is removed, the motor is in the rear and this wheel fits (verify your model number too). If the motor is accessible from the front, this is not the correct part. Contact our support team with your model number and we'll confirm. The old blower wheel is stuck on the shaft — how do I get it off? First, make sure you're turning it the right direction — this has left-hand threads, so turn clockwise to loosen (the opposite of normal). If it's truly stuck from age or corrosion: hold the motor pulley on the other end of the shaft with one hand (or use pliers wrapped in a cloth) to keep the shaft from spinning, then turn the blower wheel clockwise with the other hand. If the plastic hub has seized, a flat-blade screwdriver can help gently pry it. In many cases, an old seized blower wheel will crack and break apart during removal — that's perfectly fine since you're replacing it anyway. Just make sure all the old pieces are cleared from the blower housing before installing the new wheel. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a Genuine OEM replacement part. It is a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, this original WP694089 blower wheel used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and related 29" dryers.
