Genuine OEM WPW10185972 Dryer Timer
The Genuine OEM Whirlpool WPW10185972 is the dryer timer, the electromechanical control that advances through your dryer's preset cycles. Its internal contacts open and close the circuits that control heat and the drum motor, so the dryer runs for the right amount of time at the right setting. When the timer fails, the dryer may not start, may not advance through the cycle, or may over-dry or under-dry your clothes.
This is the original Whirlpool part, also sold under the older number W10185972. It is listed for Whirlpool-built electric dryers sold as Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Admiral, Roper, Inglis, and Crosley. Check the part number before ordering, because a similar timer, WPW10185971, is listed for different models.

XPARTCO WR51X10055 Refrigerator Defrost Heater Assembly
The XPARTCO WR51X10055 is an aftermarket replacement refrigerator defrost heater and bracket assembly compatible with a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, Haier, Americana, Monogram, and Café refrigerators. The defrost heater is a glass quartz tube heater mounted on a bracket below the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment. During each automatic defrost cycle, the heater energizes and melts any frost that has accumulated on the evaporator coils — maintaining unobstructed airflow through the coils so the refrigerator can cool efficiently. When the heater fails, frost accumulates on the coils unchecked, blocking airflow and causing both the freezer and fresh food sections to gradually warm up.
Rated at 120V, 725W, this single quartz tube heater assembly measures 12-1/8" L x 3-3/8" W x 2-1/8" H and includes the heater element and mounting bracket. It directly replaces WR51X10030, AP3183311, 914088, AH303781, EA303781, PS303781, SH323, and EAP303781. Often replaced together with the defrost thermostat (WR50X10068) and temperature sensor (WR55X10025) for a complete defrost system repair. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WR51X10055 Refrigerator Defrost Heater Assembly fixes GE and Hotpoint refrigerators where frost is building up on the evaporator coils, the freezer is too warm, the fresh food section is warming up, or the refrigerator is running continuously without cooling properly. Single quartz tube heater, 120V / 725W. Assembly measures 12-1/8" L x 3-3/8" W x 2-1/8" H. Includes heater and bracket. Replaces WR51X10030, AP3183311, 914088, SH323, and more. Compatible with GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, Haier, Americana, Monogram, and Café.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Frost or ice buildup covering the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment
Freezer section warming up or not maintaining set temperature
Fresh food section warming up even though the freezer is running
Refrigerator running continuously but not cooling properly
Visible frost accumulation on the freezer back wall behind the panel
Defrost heater element visibly burned out, broken, or dark/charred at the ends
Both compartments gradually warming up after working normally for years

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

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.

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

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 3406107 Dryer Door Switch Replaces WP3406107
The XPARTCO 3406107 is an aftermarket replacement door switch for Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, and KitchenAid dryers. Mounted inside the upper corner of the front panel, this safety switch has a spring-loaded black tab that gets pressed in when the door closes. That contact tells the control board the door is shut, which is required before the dryer will start, and it also powers the interior drum light. Over time the switch's internal contacts wear out or the tab loses spring tension, and the dryer either won't start at all or runs with the door open — a safety condition the switch is specifically designed to prevent.
This is a three-wire SPDT (single pole, double throw) switch built to the same dimensions and mounting points as the original, and it's designed to remain compatible with older two-wire harnesses as well. Direct-fit aftermarket replacement, no wiring modifications needed.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 3406107 Dryer Door Switch fixes a dryer that won't start, runs with the door open, or has a dead interior light. Direct-fit replacement for OEM WP3406107. Classic symptom: pressing start does nothing until you push and hold the door shut, or the drum light never comes on.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer won't start even though the door is closed
Dryer runs with the door open (safety switch failure)
Interior drum light doesn't turn on
Door doesn't seem to latch or seal properly against the switch tab
Drum doesn't spin, or cycle stops intermittently
Touchpad or start button appears unresponsive
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 door switch directly replaces the following part numbers:
WP3406107, WPW10569603, 3406107, 3406109, W10569603, 3405100, 3405101, 3406100, 3406101, ES6107, 528948, 11259-65, PD00002378, EAP11741701, AP6008561, AWP47183, PS11741701
This switch design was updated to a three-wire configuration at some point in its production history (superseding older 3405100/3405101/3406100/3406101 numbers), but the current three-wire version remains compatible with older two-wire harnesses, so it's a safe direct replacement across all of these part numbers.
Compatibility
This door switch is compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, and KitchenAid dryers, including units across the:
Whirlpool/Kenmore Series 60, 70, 80, 90, 500, 600, 700, and 800 dryer lines
AED4475TQ1, MEDC400VW0, and numerous additional model numbers
Note: This switch has been used across a very wide range of Whirlpool-built dryers (including Kenmore, Maytag, and KitchenAid badged units) spanning many production years, so the list above is only a sample. Confirm your model number against your dryer's parts diagram, or contact our support team to verify fit before ordering.
Key Features
Direct-fit aftermarket door safety switch for Whirlpool-built dryers
Three-wire SPDT design, backward-compatible with two-wire harnesses

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power Before Installing Unplug the dryer or switch off its circuit breaker before beginning. The switch is mounted inside the upper corner of the front panel, so you'll need to remove the front panel or top panel per your model's service guide to access it. Disconnect the wire connector from the old switch, then remove the mounting screw(s) holding it in place. Install the new switch in the same position, reconnect the wire connector, and reinstall the panel. Before closing everything up, you can test the switch by pressing the black tab — you should feel spring resistance and hear or feel a distinct click. Restore power and confirm the dryer starts normally with the door closed and stops when the door is opened.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer won't start — is this the part I need?
This is one of the most common causes of a dryer that won't start even with the door closed. Try pressing the black tab on the switch by hand — if it feels loose, doesn't click, or offers no resistance, the switch has likely failed and needs replacement.
My dryer runs even with the door open — is that dangerous?
Yes, this indicates the door safety switch has failed in a way that no longer prevents operation with the door open, which is a safety hazard. Replace the switch promptly and avoid running the dryer with the door open in the meantime.
My dryer has a two-wire connector — will this three-wire switch still work?
Yes. This switch was redesigned to a three-wire configuration but remains compatible with older two-wire wiring harnesses, so it's a safe direct replacement regardless of which wire configuration your dryer currently has.
Does this switch also control the interior light?
Yes. This switch serves a dual function — it's the safety interlock that permits the dryer to run only with the door closed, and it also powers the interior drum light when the door is open.

WE04X20415 Dryer Genuine OEM Timer
The WE04X20415 is a genuine GE OEM electromechanical timer for GE electric and gas dryers, and also fits select Hotpoint and Kenmore models. This timer manages the duration of the drying cycle, running the dryer for the correct amount of time based on your selected setting and automatically shutting the machine off once the cycle is complete — that automatic shutoff is what prevents over-drying, which can damage fabrics and waste energy.
Rated with manufacturer designation 212D1233P005, measuring approximately 2-1/8"H x 3"W x 4-1/4"D. Over time, the timer's internal mechanical components can wear out, be damaged by power surges, or simply age past their reliable service life. A failing timer typically shows up as the dryer not shutting off at the end of a cycle, not running for the correct length of time, or the control knob feeling loose or failing to turn the mechanism properly. It directly replaces 3276788, WE04X20415-20PK, WE4M355, WE4M357, AGE25827, AP5805477, EAP9491767, PS9491767, PD00027041. As a genuine OEM part, the WE04X20415 is manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

Replaces 3276788, WE04X20415-20PK, WE4M355, WE4M357, AGE25827, AP5805477, EAP9491767, PS9491767, PD00027041.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Transfer Wires One At A Time Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the screws from the back panel and set the panel aside. Remove the control knob from the front panel. Pull the old timer out and photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything. Transfer each wire one at a time from the old timer to the new WE04X20415, matching each connection exactly as photographed — moving them one at a time rather than all at once helps avoid mixing up positions. Secure the new timer in its mounting position, reconnect the knob to the front panel, and reattach the back panel. Restore power and test the timer by setting it for a few minutes and starting a cycle to confirm the dryer runs for the correct duration and shuts off with the buzzer at the end. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer won't shut off at the end of the cycle. Is this the timer?
Yes, this is one of the most direct symptoms of a failing timer. The timer is responsible for automatically shutting the dryer off once the selected cycle duration is complete, so if that mechanism has worn out or jammed, the dryer can continue running well past when it should have stopped.
My control knob feels loose and won't turn the timer properly. Is that this same part?
It could be related. One customer found the knob stem had worn smooth and would no longer turn the timer mechanism at all — in that case, replacing the timer resolves the issue since the knob attaches directly to the timer's internal shaft.
Is this a hard repair to do myself?
No, several customers describe this as a straightforward repair. One account details removing the back panel screws, disconnecting the dryer, removing the front knob, photographing the wiring, and transferring each wire one at a time to the new timer — the whole process, including testing, took well under an hour, and even helped one customer celebrate an 80th birthday with a successful father-son repair.
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, terminal layout, and dimensions of the timer originally installed in your dryer.
