Compatibility: Designed for select Whirlpool dryer models that specify WP40113801 in the service parts list. Model-number verification is required.

Please confirm fitment with your appliance or equipment model number before ordering.

Is it time to replace?

• Common Symptoms: Appliance will not heat or run because the thermal safety device is open, or diagnosis confirms an open cutoff/fuse after an overheat event.
• Visible/Sensory Cues: Open continuity, heat discoloration, burned terminal, or evidence of abnormal temperature/airflow around the protected circuit.

Pro Tip: A thermal fuse/cutoff usually opens because of another problem. Check airflow, venting, heater/relay operation, cycling thermostat/sensor, and connections before installing the replacement.
