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. Quick Answer 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. Common Problems This Part Fixes 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 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, 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.

Wear work gloves, as the cabinet edges are sharp. Remove the panel that gives access to the heater housing per your model's service guide, note the wire terminal positions, and disconnect them from the old thermostat. Remove the thermostat, install the new one in the same position, and reconnect the wires. A screwdriver and needle-nose pliers are typically all you need. Before closing the dryer, clean the lint trap and check the exhaust vent for restrictions, since poor airflow is a common cause of overheating. Frequently Asked Questions My dryer isn't heating or runs too hot. Is this the part I need? A failed cycling thermostat can cause either symptom. It may stay open and prevent heat, or stay closed and let the dryer overheat. Check for a clogged vent and test the thermostat for continuity before replacing it. What's the difference between the cycling thermostat and the high limit thermostat? The cycling thermostat controls normal drying temperature by switching the heating element on and off. The high limit thermostat and thermal fuse are separate safety devices that cut power if the dryer overheats. This listing is for the cycling thermostat only. How do I test this thermostat? With the dryer unplugged and the wires removed, check for continuity across the terminals with a multimeter at room temperature. A properly working cycling thermostat should show continuity when cool. No continuity means it has failed. Will this fit my dryer? It fits many Whirlpool-built 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 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.

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.

XPARTCO EBF61315802 Washer Door Lock Switch The XPARTCO EBF61315802 is an aftermarket replacement washer door lock switch assembly compatible with a wide range of LG front-load washers and Kenmore 796-series front-load washing machines. The door lock switch is mounted on the front panel just inside the door opening — when the door is closed, the door's striker engages the lock and the switch reports back to the control board that the door is securely closed. The lock then engages electromagnetically to physically prevent the door from being opened during the wash and spin cycles, eliminating the risk of water leaks and protecting the user from the high-speed spinning drum. When this part fails, the washer will not start (since the control board can't confirm the door is locked), will stop mid-cycle, may display DE1 or DE2 error codes, may not actually lock the door (allowing it to open during a cycle), or may leak water around the door. Rated 125V AC, 60Hz, with a 3-pin connector. It directly replaces EBF62534401, AP5672154, AP6992889, PS7792232, PS16223547, EAP7792232, 2667085, and PD00008063. Often replaced alongside the door lock strike (MFG63099101, sold separately), which is the matching component on the door itself. Installs in 15–20 minutes with basic hand tools — no full front panel removal needed on most models. Quick Answer The XPARTCO EBF61315802 Washer Door Lock Switch fixes LG and Kenmore 796-series front-load washers that won't start, won't lock the door, stop mid-cycle, display DE1 or DE2 error codes, allow the door to open during a cycle, or leak water around the door. 125V AC, 60Hz, 3-pin connector.

Wear work gloves to protect your hands. On most LG and Kenmore front-load models, you can replace the door lock switch without removing the whole front panel — a much faster repair than expected. Open the washer door (if the door is stuck locked, use a putty knife to pry the white latch on the door lock assembly through the bottom service opening, then open the door). Remove the spring-loaded wire clamp securing the door boot to the front panel — needle-nose pliers help here. Peel back the rubber door boot from the front panel to expose the rear of the door lock switch. Remove the 2 Phillips screws holding the switch to the front panel. Reach in and pull the switch out through the boot opening. Disconnect the wire harness from the old switch. Connect the wire harness to the new EBF61315802, position it in place, and secure with the 2 mounting screws. Press the rubber door boot back fully into the groove at the front panel — this is the trickiest part of the install (an extra pair of hands helps). Reinstall the spring-loaded wire clamp around the boot to secure it. Restore power and test by closing the door and starting a cycle. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, putty knife (for stuck doors), work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions What do error codes DE1 and DE2 mean on LG washers? DE (Door Error) codes on LG front-load washers indicate the control board cannot confirm the door is properly closed and locked. DE1 typically appears when the door switch reports the door as open at the start of a cycle, and DE2 typically appears when the door signal is lost during a cycle. Both can be caused by a failed door lock switch, a worn or broken door lock strike (MFG63099101) on the door itself, or a damaged wiring harness. Replacing the EBF61315802 door lock switch resolves these codes when the switch is the cause; if the codes return after replacement, the strike on the door or the harness should be inspected next. Do I need to replace the door lock strike (MFG63099101) too? Not always, but often. The door lock strike is the matching component mounted on the door itself — it's the part that the switch's electromagnetic lock grips when the door closes. If the strike is worn, cracked, or its plastic teeth are broken, the new switch won't lock reliably even if it's working perfectly. Inspect the strike on the door for visible damage before replacing just the switch. Many repair scenarios call for replacing both at the same time, since both wear together and the parts complement each other. My washer door is stuck closed — how do I get it open to install this? If the door is stuck in the locked position because the existing switch has failed, you can use a putty knife or thin flat tool to manually release the door lock through the bottom service opening of the washer. Reach in through the access panel at the lower front of the unit and locate the white plastic latch on the back of the door lock assembly — gently push or pry it to release the mechanism. The door should then open. Once open, you can proceed with the installation. Always disconnect power from the washer before attempting this. Do I really not need to remove the front panel? Correct — on most LG and Kenmore front-load models, you can replace the door lock switch by working through the door opening after pulling back the rubber door boot. This avoids the much more involved process of removing the entire front panel. The trickiest part of the repair is pressing the rubber door boot back into its groove on the front panel after the switch is installed — an extra pair of hands is helpful for this step. The whole repair typically takes 15–20 minutes. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications (125V AC, 60Hz), 3-pin connector configuration, electromagnetic lock function, and dimensions of the original EBF61315802 door lock switch used in compatible LG and Kenmore 796-series front-load washers.

XPARTCO 279769 Dryer Thermostat Kit The XPARTCO 279769 is an aftermarket replacement 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 279769, 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. As an aftermarket replacement, the 279769 kit is built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. Quick Answer The XPARTCO 279769 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).

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 an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the temperature thresholds and mounting configuration of the original 279769 high-limit thermostat and thermal cut-off fuse kit used in compatible Whirlpool, Kenmore, Roper, KitchenAid, Maytag, Amana, Estate, Crosley, and Admiral electric dryers.

Verify power is off with a voltage tester before touching any wiring. Wear work gloves and safety glasses. Allow the oven to cool completely before beginning (several hours after any recent cooking). The high limit thermostat is typically mounted on the rear or side of the oven cavity, accessed by removing the back panel of the appliance (for freestanding ranges) or the front trim/service panel (for wall ovens). The exact location varies by model — consult your appliance's service diagram before starting. Photograph all wire connections and mounting details before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the wire terminals from the old thermostat (typically two spade-terminal wires). Remove the mounting screws or clips holding the thermostat to the oven cavity, and lift it out. Install the new WP4449751 in the exact same position and orientation — the thermostat must be in good thermal contact with the oven cavity to function correctly. Secure the mounting hardware and reconnect the wires to their correct terminals. Reinstall the access panels. Restore power at the breaker and test the oven — start with a low-temperature bake cycle to confirm normal heating operation before running a high-temperature or self-clean cycle. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, voltage tester (essential), work gloves, safety glasses. Frequently Asked Questions Why did my high limit thermostat trip in the first place? A high limit thermostat trips because the oven exceeded its safe operating temperature — meaning something upstream in the temperature control chain failed to shut off the heating element when it should have. Common causes are: a failed oven control board (relay stuck closed), a failed cooling fan (allowing the oven cavity or electronics to overheat), blocked or restricted ventilation, poor door sealing (letting the cavity overheat), disrupted air circulation, or an abnormal self-cleaning cycle. Before installing the new thermostat, investigate and address the underlying cause — otherwise the new thermostat will trip again in short order. Also inspect the ventilation, oven door gasket, and cooling fan while you have the appliance open. What's the difference between a high limit thermostat and the operating thermostat? These are two different components serving two different roles. The operating thermostat (or the oven control board with its temperature sensor) is the primary component that maintains the oven at your set temperature by cycling the heating element on and off during normal operation — it opens and closes at your selected temperature (e.g., 350°F). The high limit thermostat (WP4449751) is a backup safety device that only trips when the oven temperature far exceeds normal operation (335°F over the cavity's safe threshold), typically because the operating thermostat or control has failed. If the high limit thermostat trips, both need to be checked — the operating thermostat may also need replacement. Does the high limit thermostat reset itself, or does it need to be replaced after tripping? The WP4449751 is an auto-reset thermostat — it closes automatically once the oven cools back to a safe temperature, allowing normal operation to resume. If your oven is heating normally again after cooling, the thermostat is likely still functional (the underlying overheating cause needs investigation). However, if the thermostat has failed permanently open — often the result of repeated overheat events or age — it will need replacement. Test with a multimeter set to continuity: a working thermostat shows continuity at room temperature. If it reads open (infinite resistance) when cold, it has failed and needs replacement. Why does my self-cleaning cycle leave the oven door locked and the oven won't heat? This is a classic symptom of a high limit thermostat that tripped during the self-clean cycle. Self-cleaning cycles run at extreme temperatures (800–1000°F) and stress every component in the oven — if the ventilation, door gasket, or cooling fan can't keep up, the high limit thermostat will trip open. Once tripped, the oven can't heat OR unlock the self-clean door lock mechanism, leaving the door stuck closed. Once the thermostat cools and closes (or is replaced), the door lock releases and normal operation resumes. If self-clean cycles routinely trip the thermostat, investigate whether the ventilation, cooling fan, or door gasket are causing the problem. Can I do this repair myself, or should I hire a technician? Replacing an oven high limit thermostat is a manageable DIY repair for someone comfortable with mechanical work and electrical connections, but this is a 240V circuit and the thermostat is a safety component — any error can create a serious safety risk. If you have experience with appliance repair, follow the safety precautions carefully (breaker off, voltage tester, correct thermostat orientation), and can confirm the wiring connections are secure, this is a feasible DIY. If you've never worked with 240V appliance circuits before, hiring a qualified appliance technician is the safer option. Also identify and address whatever caused the original overheat event — otherwise the new thermostat will trip again. 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 high limit thermostat installed in compatible Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore ovens from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
