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.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Test Before Assuming All Three Have Failed Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. 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 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

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 DC47-00018A Dryer Hi Limit Thermostat
The XPARTCO DC47-00018A is an aftermarket replacement cycling high-limit thermostat for Samsung and select Kenmore electric dryers. This is a genuine, automatically resetting thermostat — not a one-time fuse. It monitors temperature in the heating circuit and opens to cut power to the heating element at approximately 260°F, protecting the dryer from overheating. Once the temperature drops to around 210°F, it closes again on its own, letting the dryer resume heating without any part replacement needed.
This thermostat works alongside a downstream thermal fuse (such as our DC96-00887C listing) in the same overheat-protection circuit. If this thermostat is cycling excessively, tripping prematurely, or failing to regulate temperature correctly, it can put stress on that thermal fuse, sometimes causing it to blow as a last-resort safety measure. Symptoms of a failing high-limit thermostat include no heat or insufficient heat, drying that takes too long, or the dryer shutting off too soon before a load is fully dry. It directly replaces 35001092, WP35001092, 1122485, AP4201898, PS4205217, EAP2430930, PS2430930, and AP6008682.

The XPARTCO DC47-00018A Dryer Hi Limit Thermostat fixes Samsung and select Kenmore electric dryers with no heat or insufficient heat, drying that takes too long, or premature shutoff before a load is fully dry. Opens at approximately 260°F, resets automatically around 210°F. Replaces 35001092, WP35001092, 1122485, AP4201898, PS4205217, EAP2430930, PS2430930, AP6008682. This is a resettable thermostat, not a fuse — it does not need replacement after each trip. It's a different component from our DC96-00887C thermal fuse listing, though the two are often checked together.

Dryer has no heat or insufficient heat
Drying takes too long to complete a cycle
Dryer shuts off too soon, before clothes are fully dry
Timer will not advance through the cycle
Dryer that stopped working suddenly after running unusually hot
Dryer with a history of repeated downstream thermal fuse failures

Compatibility
This high-limit thermostat is compatible with select Samsung electric dryers, and also fits select Kenmore dryers built on the Samsung platform, including model numbers such as:
DV5471AEW/XAA
DV40J3000EW/A2, DV42H5000EW/A3, DV45H7000EW/A2, DV48H7400EW/A2

Note — resettable thermostat, not a fuse: This DC47-00018A is a true cycling thermostat that resets itself automatically. Our DC96-00887C listing, despite frequently being labeled a "thermostat" on other marketplaces, is actually a one-time thermal fuse mounted separately on the blower housing — it cannot reset and must be replaced once blown. The two are different device types serving the same circuit. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access is typically through the rear panel, near the heater duct and blower housing area where this thermostat is mounted. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since this thermostat can be positioned close to other similar-looking components in the same circuit. Remove the old thermostat from its mounting position, noting orientation, and disconnect its wiring. Install the new DC47-00018A in the same position, 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
Do I need to reset this thermostat after it trips, or replace it?
Neither, in normal operation — this is a genuine cycling thermostat that resets itself automatically once the dryer cools to around 210°F. You should only need to replace it if it has failed outright (stuck open, stuck closed, or no longer switching at the correct temperatures), not simply because it tripped once during normal operation.
My dryer shuts off before the load is fully dry. Is that this part?
It's a strong possibility. If this high-limit thermostat is tripping prematurely — opening at a lower temperature than it should — the dryer can cut heat and end the cycle early even though the load isn't actually dry yet. This is one of the more common symptoms this thermostat addresses.
My thermal fuse keeps blowing. Could this thermostat be the underlying cause?
Yes, this is worth investigating. This thermostat and the downstream thermal fuse (our DC96-00887C listing) protect the same circuit at different points. If this thermostat isn't regulating temperature correctly — cycling excessively or failing to catch a temperature spike — the thermal fuse can end up blowing repeatedly as the last line of defense. If you've replaced the fuse more than once, checking or replacing this thermostat at the same time is a reasonable next step.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and opening/reset temperatures of the original DC47-00018A high-limit thermostat used in compatible Samsung and Kenmore electric dryers.
