Genuine OEM ADQ73913310 Refrigerator Water Filter Housing Assembly
The Genuine OEM LG ADQ73913310 is the water filter housing assembly for select LG refrigerators. LG lists it as "Filter Assembly, Water." It is the housing, not the replaceable filter cartridge. The assembly includes the water reservoir that holds water for the dispenser, the filter head that secures the water filter, the water inlet valve, tube connectors, and the water reservoir cover. If the water dispenser isn't working properly, a faulty filter assembly may be the cause.
This is the original LG part, not an aftermarket equivalent. The replacement water filter cartridge is a separate part and is not included, so check your model number before ordering.
Quick Answer

Does not include the filter cartridge. Classic symptom: the water dispenser isn't working properly, or the filter area leaks.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power And Shut Off Water Before Installing Move perishable food to a cooler, unplug the refrigerator, and shut off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves. Follow your model's service guide to reach the water filter assembly and its water line connections. Note how the tubes and wiring connect, disconnect them, and remove the old assembly. Fit the new assembly in the same position and reconnect the tubes and wiring. Restore water and power, check every connection for leaks, and run water through the dispenser to purge air.

No. This is the housing assembly that holds the filter: the reservoir, filter head, inlet valve, tube connectors, and cover. The replaceable water filter cartridge is a separate part.
My water dispenser isn't working properly. Is this the part I need?
A faulty filter assembly is one possible cause. Before replacing it, check the water supply, the filter cartridge, and whether the filter is seated correctly. If the housing, valve, or connectors are damaged or leaking, replacing the assembly is the repair.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part from LG, not an aftermarket equivalent.

Genuine OEM W11844302 Refrigerator Filter Head
The W11844302 is a genuine OEM water filter head assembly for Whirlpool refrigerators, and the current part number that supersedes the earlier W11808483. The filter head is the fitting inside the refrigerator that holds the water filter and routes incoming water through it to the water dispenser and ice maker. When the head cracks, leaks, or no longer seats the filter correctly, you can see water at the filter, lose flow to the dispenser or ice maker, or find the filter will not lock in or seal.
This is a genuine OEM part from Whirlpool, not an aftermarket equivalent, so the fit and the filter connection match what came with the refrigerator. It is the filter head only. The water filter itself is a separate part and is sold separately.
Quick Answer
The Genuine OEM W11844302 Filter Head fixes a Whirlpool refrigerator whose filter head is cracked, leaking, or no longer holding or sealing the water filter. Genuine OEM, the current number superseding W11808483 and a long list of earlier Whirlpool filter head numbers. Classic symptom: water dripping around the filter, a filter that won't lock in or seal, or reduced water flow to the dispenser and ice maker.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Water leaking from or around the filter head
Water filter won't lock in or seal properly
Reduced or no water from the dispenser or ice maker traced to the filter head
Cracked, broken, or damaged filter head housing

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water and Unplug Power Turn off the water supply to the refrigerator and unplug it before starting. Remove the water filter, and have towels ready since some water will remain in the lines. Following your model's service guide, disconnect the water lines from the filter head and remove the screws or fasteners holding it to the refrigerator. Note how the lines and mounting are arranged, install the new filter head in the same position, and reconnect the lines securely. Install the water filter, restore water and power, and check every connection for leaks. Run water through the dispenser for several minutes to flush air from the lines, and check again for leaks.
Frequently Asked Questions
My water filter leaks or won't seal. Is this the part I need?
It can be. Check first that the filter is the correct one for your model and is fully seated. If the filter fits correctly but still leaks, or the head itself is cracked or damaged, replacing the filter head should fix it.
Does this include the water filter?
No. This is the filter head only. The water filter is sold separately.

WH23X38617 Genuine OEM GE Washer Drain Pump Filter with Seal
The WH23X38617 is a Genuine OEM GE replacement drain pump filter with seal, compatible with select GE, GE Profile, and GE 2-in-1 Washer/Dryer Combo models. The pump filter sits inside the drain pump housing and traps lint, coins, hair, and small debris before they reach the pump impeller. Keeping this filter clean and intact is essential for proper drainage — a clogged or damaged filter causes slow draining, standing water in the tub, and can strain the drain pump over time.
This genuine OEM part is manufactured by GE to factory specifications and includes both the pump filter and the seal. The seal prevents leaks at the pump clean-out when the filter is installed correctly. The filter body is blue plastic with rubber seal components, measuring approximately 6" L x 3" W x 3" H. It directly replaces part number AP7243923 and installs with a simple counterclockwise removal and clockwise installation — no special tools required.
Quick Answer
The WH23X38617 Genuine OEM GE Washer Drain Pump Filter with Seal fixes GE washers that drain slowly, leave standing water in the tub, or leak near the pump access panel. The filter traps lint and debris to protect the pump impeller. Includes filter and seal. Blue plastic/rubber, approx. 6" L x 3" W x 3" H. Twist-out installation — no tools needed. Compatible with GE, GE Profile, and GE 2-in-1 Washer/Dryer Combo models.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer draining slowly or not draining at all after a wash cycle
Standing water remaining in the drum at the end of a cycle
Water leaking from the pump filter access panel at the front of the washer
Error codes related to drain or pump failure on compatible GE models

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing the drain pump filter. Place towels or a shallow pan beneath the filter access panel to catch residual water — there will always be some water remaining in the pump housing when you remove the filter. Locate the pump filter access panel at the lower front of the washer and open or remove it. Turn the old WH23X38617 filter counterclockwise to loosen and remove it. Clear any debris from the filter housing and wipe the area clean. Install the new filter and seal by inserting it into the housing and turning it clockwise until snug — do not overtighten. Close or reinstall the access panel, restore water supply and power, then run a short cycle to verify proper drainage and confirm there are no leaks at the filter port. Tip: Clean the pump filter every 1–3 months as part of regular washer maintenance to prevent buildup. Tools needed: None for the filter itself; a screwdriver may be needed to open the access panel on some models.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the drain pump filter do?
The drain pump filter catches lint, coins, hair, buttons, and other small items before they can reach the drain pump impeller. Without the filter, debris can jam or damage the impeller — leading to pump failure, loud grinding noises, or a washer that won't drain. The filter also acts as a cleanout access point so you can periodically remove accumulated debris without disassembling the pump.
How often should I clean or replace the pump filter?
GE recommends cleaning the pump filter every 1–3 months depending on how frequently you run the washer and how much lint your laundry produces. The filter should be replaced rather than just cleaned if it is cracked, stripped at the threads, or if the seal is damaged or missing — a compromised filter or seal will leak water from the access port.
Why is water leaking from the front of my GE washer near the bottom?
A leak at the lower front of the washer near the pump access panel is most often caused by a damaged or deteriorated pump filter seal, a cracked filter body, or a filter that is not fully tightened. Replacing the WH23X38617 pump filter and seal resolves this in most cases. Make sure the new filter is hand-tightened snugly — do not overtighten, as this can crack the housing.
Will there be water when I remove the pump filter?
Yes — there is always residual water in the drain pump housing. Before removing the filter, place towels and a shallow pan or tray directly under the access panel to catch the water. The amount varies depending on how much water remains in the washer after the last cycle. Running a drain-only cycle immediately before removing the filter will minimize the amount of water released.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by GE to factory specifications. It is the exact same pump filter and seal that GE installs in compatible models from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

5231EL1001C Genuine OEM LG Dryer Lint Filter Screen
The 5231EL1001C is a genuine LG OEM lint filter screen for LG and select Kenmore dryers, including True Steam models. Positioned inside the dryer drum, this filter captures loose lint and debris from the exhaust air as clothes tumble and dry, which is essential both for maintaining strong airflow and drying efficiency and for reducing the fire risk that comes with lint buildup inside the dryer.
Constructed with a white plastic frame, a fine mesh screen, and a felt rim seal, this filter is sold individually. Over time, the screen can tear, crack, or become permanently clogged despite regular cleaning, and it can also be lost or damaged during cleaning attempts. A worn or damaged filter typically shows up as drying taking longer than it used to, clothes not drying properly, unusual smells during the cycle, or lint escaping past the screen into the vent system. It directly replaces 1668214, , AP5248138, ALG52094, AH3527575, EA3527575, OEM15744423, PD00001829, PS3527575
Quick Answer
The 5231EL1001C Genuine OEM LG Dryer Lint Filter Screen fixes LG and select Kenmore dryers where drying takes too long, clothes aren't drying properly, there's an unusual smell during the cycle, or the filter itself is cracked, torn, or missing.

Not replacing a torn or damaged lint filter can lead to dryer damage and increases fire risk from lint buildup — replace promptly if damaged.
Common Problems This Part Fixes

Clothes not drying properly at the end of a cycle
Unusual smell during the drying cycle
Cracked, torn, or damaged lint filter screen

Installation Notes
⚠️ Disconnect Power Before Starting Disconnect all utilities from the dryer before beginning this repair. Locate the lint filter slot inside the dryer drum. Remove the old lint filter by pulling it up and out of its designated slot. Insert the new 5231EL1001C into the same slot, seating it fully so it sits flush and secure. No tools are required for this replacement. While the dryer is open, it's a good opportunity to vacuum out any accumulated lint from inside the filter housing using a vacuum hose extension, since buildup here can accumulate over the life of the dryer even with regular filter cleaning. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm normal airflow and drying performance.
Frequently Asked Questions
My lint filter is cracked. Do I really need to replace it right away?
Yes, promptly. Not replacing a torn or damaged lint filter can allow lint to bypass the screen and build up further downstream in the dryer or venting system, which can lead to dryer damage and increases the risk of overheating or fire. This is a low-cost, simple part to replace, so it's not worth delaying once damage is noticed.
How often should I clean or replace this filter?
Clean the filter after every load for best performance. As a general guideline, replacing the filter every 6 to 12 months, or sooner if it becomes damaged, helps maintain proper airflow and reduces fire risk from lint buildup, even with regular cleaning between replacements.
Do I need any tools to replace this filter?
No. This lint filter simply lifts out of its slot and the new one presses back into place — no tools or disassembly required beyond disconnecting power to the dryer first.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original frame design, mesh screen, and seal of the lint filter originally installed in your dryer.

ADQ56656401 Genuine OEM LG Dryer Lint Screen
The ADQ56656401 is a genuine LG OEM lint filter screen for LG and select Kenmore Elite front-load dryers. This is the removable screen that sits in the lint trap opening at the top of the dryer, catching lint and fabric fibers out of the exhaust airflow before they can reach the vent duct. Keeping this screen intact and free of buildup is one of the most important things you can do for your dryer's performance — a torn, missing, or heavily clogged screen doesn't just slow drying, it lets more lint travel downstream into the ducting, which is a well-documented fire risk factor for dryers generally.
Built with an ABS plastic frame and a stainless steel mesh screen, this filter measures approximately 11.9" x 10.9". Over time the mesh can tear, the frame can crack, or the screen can simply wear out and stop trapping lint as effectively as it should. A worn or damaged lint screen typically shows up as drying times that have crept longer than they used to, visible lint on clean clothes, or a screen that's visibly torn, bent, or missing sections of mesh. It directly replaces AP4457244, 1462822, AH3531962, EA3531962, and PS3531962.
Quick Answer
The ADQ56656401 Genuine OEM LG Dryer Lint Screen fixes LG and select Kenmore Elite front-load dryers with a torn, cracked, missing, or heavily worn lint filter, showing up as longer drying times or lint on clean clothes. ABS frame with stainless steel mesh, approximately 11.9" x 10.9". Replaces AP4457244, 1462822, AH3531962, EA3531962, PS3531962. Not the same filter as ADQ56656403, which is a slightly smaller (11.2" x 10.9") screen used on LG WashTower models.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Drying times that have gradually gotten longer than they used to
Lint visible on clean clothes after a cycle
Lint screen visibly torn, cracked, or missing sections of mesh
Screen frame that's cracked, warped, or won't seat properly in the trap opening
Reduced airflow through the dryer overall

Installation Notes
This is a simple, tool-free repair. With the dryer unplugged or off, locate the lint trap opening at the top of the dryer and pull the old lint screen straight up and out. Line up the new ADQ56656401 screen with the same opening and slide it back down into place until it seats fully and sits flush. There's no need to disconnect power for this repair, but it's good practice to do so if you're also cleaning out the trap housing itself. While the screen is out, take a moment to wipe down the inside of the lint trap housing to clear any accumulated lint before reinserting the new screen. Tools needed: none.
Frequently Asked Questions
My drying times have gotten longer. Is a worn lint screen really the cause?
It's one of the most common and easiest-to-fix causes. A torn or heavily worn screen lets lint pass through into the ducting instead of being caught, which restricts airflow further downstream and makes the dryer work harder to move air. Combined with regularly cleaning the screen after every load, a fresh screen in good condition helps restore normal drying times.
Is it actually important to replace a torn lint screen, or is it just cosmetic?
It's worth replacing rather than continuing to use a damaged screen. A torn or heavily worn lint filter lets more lint travel past it into the dryer's internal ducting and exhaust path, and lint buildup in that ducting is a well-documented dryer fire risk factor. Combined with never running the dryer without a lint filter in place at all, keeping the screen in good condition is a simple, inexpensive way to reduce that risk.
Do I need any tools to replace this?
No. The lint screen simply lifts straight out of its slot and the new one slides straight back in — no tools, no disassembly required.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original frame dimensions, mesh material, and fit of the lint screen originally installed in your LG or Kenmore Elite dryer.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning any repair. Place towels and a shallow pan under the pump access area to catch residual water. Remove the front lower access panel of the washer. Before removing the pump, first clean the pump filter (WH23X38617) and check for a clogged filter or debris in the pump housing — a jammed impeller is sometimes mistaken for a failed pump. If the pump motor is confirmed failed, disconnect the wire harness and drain hoses from the old pump assembly, then unscrew or unclip the pump from the mounting bracket. Install the new WH11X39237 pump assembly, reconnect the drain hoses and secure with clamps, reconnect the wire harness, and reinstall the access panel. Restore power and water supply, then run a drain-only cycle to verify proper drainage and check for leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, shallow pan or towels.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between WH11X39237 and WH11X29539?
These are the same drain pump assembly — WH11X39237 is the current updated part number that GE issued to replace the discontinued WH11X29539. If your washer's documentation, parts diagram, or old pump label shows WH11X29539, the WH11X39237 is the correct replacement to order.
Should I check the pump filter before replacing the drain pump?
Yes — always check and clean the pump filter (WH23X38617) before replacing the drain pump. A heavily clogged filter can restrict water flow enough to mimic pump failure symptoms, and a foreign object jammed in the impeller can stall the pump motor without permanently damaging it. Remove the filter, clear any debris from the housing and impeller, and test the washer again. If the pump still fails to drain after cleaning, then pump replacement is the next step.
How do I know if my drain pump has failed?
A failed drain pump typically causes the washer to stop mid-cycle with a drain error code, or to finish a cycle with standing water in the drum. You may also hear a loud humming noise during the drain phase — this indicates the motor is running but the impeller is not turning (jammed or broken). A grinding noise suggests physical damage to the impeller or pump housing. If the pump is completely silent during the drain cycle despite power being delivered to it, the motor has likely burned out.
Is the WH11X39237 compatible with GE Profile and GE 2-in-1 models?
Yes — the WH11X39237 is compatible with select GE Profile front-load washers in the PFW870, PFW950, PFW955, and PFQ83 series, as well as select GE 2-in-1 Washer/Dryer Combo models. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
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 to match the electrical specifications and physical dimensions of the original WH11X39237 drain pump assembly.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning any repair. Place towels and a shallow pan at the front of the washer to catch residual water. Open the small access panel at the lower front of the washer and drain any remaining water through the drain hose or filter port. Remove the front panel of the washer by unscrewing the top panel screws, then removing the door gasket retaining wire and door latch screws to free the front panel. With the front panel removed, the drain pump assembly is now visible at the lower front. Use a flat-head screwdriver to release the pump mounting clip, then disconnect the drain hoses using pliers to loosen the clamps. Disconnect the wire harness from the pump motor. Pull the motor assembly out of the pump housing. Install the new 4681EA2001T motor into the existing housing, reconnect the hoses and wire harness, secure the pump clip, and reassemble the front panel. Restore power and water supply, then run a drain/spin cycle to verify proper drainage. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, slip-joint pliers, shallow pan.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 4681EA2001T and 4681EA2001N?
These are the same drain pump motor — 4681EA2001T is the updated current part number that replaced the older 4681EA2001N. LG issued the updated number during a production cycle revision. If your washer or its documentation shows 4681EA2001N, 4681EA2001D, or any other older variant, the 4681EA2001T is the correct replacement to order.
What does the OE error code mean on an LG washer?
OE (or OE error) stands for "Outlet Error" — it means the washer was unable to drain within the expected time. Common causes include a clogged drain filter, a blocked or kinked drain hose, or a failed drain pump motor. Before replacing the motor, check and clean the drain filter and inspect the drain hose for kinks or blockages. If both are clear and the washer still shows OE, the pump motor has likely failed and needs replacement.
Does this include the pump housing?
No — the 4681EA2001T is the motor assembly only. It installs into your washer's existing pump housing, which is not included and does not need to be replaced in most cases. If your pump housing is cracked or damaged, you will need to source it separately. In most repairs, the housing is reused and only the motor assembly is replaced.
Should I check the drain filter before replacing the pump motor?
Yes — always check and clean the drain filter first. LG front-load washers have a coin trap and filter at the lower front that should be cleaned regularly. A heavily clogged filter or a foreign object jammed in the impeller can cause OE errors and loud humming without the pump motor being permanently damaged. Remove the filter, clear debris from the impeller area, and test the washer. If the problem persists after cleaning, the motor is the likely culprit.
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 from durable metal and ABS plastic to match the electrical specifications and performance of the original 4681EA2001T drain pump motor assembly.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Work Gloves Recommended Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning. Place towels on the floor — residual water will drain when the pump is disconnected. The drain pump is accessed through the lower front panel of the washer. Remove the screws on the lower kick panel or snap panel to expose the pump access area. Before removing the pump, drain residual water by removing the coin trap/filter cap from the filter housing (have a shallow pan ready — up to a quart of water may flow out). After draining, disconnect the pump wiring harness. Release the drain hose clamps and disconnect the hoses from the pump. Unscrew or unclip the pump mounting hardware and remove the old pump. Transfer the hoses and wiring to the new W10730972 pump, secure the mounting hardware, and reinstall the front panel. Restore power and water, run a drain/spin cycle, and check for leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, Torx screwdriver (T20 on some models), pliers, shallow pan, towels, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do error codes F21, F33, and SD mean on Whirlpool Duet and Maytag washers?
F21 indicates a long drain fault — the washer was unable to drain within the expected time (typically 8 minutes). F33 indicates a pump motor fault — the control board is not detecting the pump motor operating correctly. SD is a suds detection code that can also appear when drain issues prevent the suds from clearing properly. All three codes point toward the drain pump or a drain obstruction. Before replacing the pump, check and clean the coin trap filter — a clogged filter is one of the most common causes of F21 errors and clearing it often resolves the code without needing a new pump.
Should I check the coin trap filter before replacing the pump?
Yes — always check the coin trap filter before replacing the pump. On Whirlpool Duet and Maytag front-load washers, the coin trap filter is located inside the lower front access panel, typically behind a small cap or cover. Removing the cap and clearing lint, coins, and debris from the filter restores drain flow and clears F21/F33 errors in many cases without any part replacement needed. If the filter is clear and the pump still humbles or fails to drain, the pump needs replacement.
Why does the replacement pump look different from the original?
Whirlpool redesigned this drain pump assembly during its production lifecycle — the WPW10730972 replacement is physically larger than some of the older 8540024-series pumps it supersedes. Despite looking different, the redesigned pump uses the same hose and electrical connection points and is a direct fit in all compatible models. The larger housing is an intentional design improvement to increase pumping capacity. If the pump looks bigger than what you removed, this is normal and expected — install it in the same way as the original.
What is the difference between W10730972 and WPW10730972?
These are the same drain pump assembly. WPW10730972 is the updated Whirlpool OEM part number that superseded the original W10730972. The W10130913 and 8540024 are also cross-references for earlier versions of this same pump. This aftermarket replacement is compatible with all of these numbers.
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 electrical specifications and performance of the original WPW10730972 drain pump assembly.

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.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Test Resistance Before Assuming It's The Element 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, 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.
