fix your dryer
This kit takes the guess work out of fixing your dryer , It’s so inexpensive that you can replace everything!

Easy to install
I bought this kit to replace the fuse and cut off sensors. Our dryer was functional but had lost heat. A YouTube video assisted me the installation, in addition to making sure to check the vent system, which I cleaned.The fuse and cut off sensors fit perfect in our 20+ Kenmore Elite dryer. Though the area was tight to work in, I was able to fit our socket wrench in to remove and replace with the new ones with ease.The fuse and sensor looked just the same as the original at a better price.I did end up replacing the thermistor, however this kit did not have the right one I needed. I was able to find it on Amazon.Highly recommend this product.

issue if your dryer won't dry?, this is the ticket!
I have a whirlpool thin twin stacker washer dryer combo, my dryer wouldn't dry, I watched a 10 min YouTube video tutorial, the video walks you thru step by step, the part cost me $12.00 the time to repair took me maybe 30 minutes! saved me a ton of money from buying a new unit and the high cost of calling out a repair man to come and do what I did in 30 min for a $12.00 part! highly recommed! Thank you!

279769 Dryer Thermal Cut-off Kit, 3387134
I used this kit for my 2009 Maytag MGD5700TQ (Whirlpool) Gas Dryer. I could probably rate this as a 5-Star aftermarket appliance repair kit. The long term reliability remains to be seen. Initially this kit restored heat to the gas ignitor and also a full range of dryer temperature settings (Cool, Medium, High). I am definitely pleased with this purchase and it appears to have been a good value. It was also pretty easy to install these parts. You turn OFF the power, UNPLUG the dryer and carefully move the dryer away from the wall to gain access to the back metal panel. There were about 9 or 10 hex head sheet metal screws to remove. Once that large back metal panel was removed, these thermal cut-off based parts are all right there for easy access and removal. Removing the wire connectors is a bit tedious but still very doable with patience. You simply remove the old and replace with the new, being careful to replace all affected WIRE connectors to their EXACT same terminal locations. Taking a (phone) picture first easily takes the mystery out of these individual part tasks. By far the most important replacement part is the NEW THERMAL FUSE. That part, all by itself, can often correct any dryer heating issues. Regardless, if you have an older dryer like I do, it's the perfect time to replace those other thermal cut-off switches. Finally, I would also advise you remove the (2) dryer lint screen screws from the TOP of the dryer. Then carefully remove the main metal dryer vent (which connects to the dryer top). From there, clean out the dryer vent, including the main dryer 4-inch round vent, which connects to the main dryer vent HOSE. Quite frankly, the hose can easily be replaced at that point. Doing so can dramatically improve dryer safety and overall efficiency. I also used a soft brush attachment to my vacuum hose to carefully, thoroughly clean the large stamped metal main dryer vent. Those 3 to 4 foot long units collect a great deal of lint over time. They can also, similar to a clogged vent hose, create real fire hazards. So take full advantage of these free, very critical dryer safety maintenance tasks while you have this easy open access. Then carefully replace each piece, being particularly careful that the main stamped metal dryer vent is positioned so that it seats properly, beginning with the two top lint screen screws. Tighten snugly, absolutely, but do not overtighten. Basic, unhurried dryer replacement part and lint cleaning tasks restore life back to your appliances. Be careful, accurate and thorough. Do NOT be in a hurry; not after this effort and the value you are now restoring back into your dryer. Don't forget about the dryer main drum rubber belt AND the drum WHEELS. Do those later when time.

Cheap fix, if you don't mind the labor
First time fixing a dryer. Learning experience and a little tough, but easy to fix once you find the bad sensor (multimeter required). This kit let me switch out both the failed thermal fuse + the thermostat I broke while trying to test them all. Hardest part was just getting the heavy parts off and back on again (front, back, drum, etc.)

Worked perfect in a Frigidaire front load dryer with old-school friction knob
I have a 20 year old Frigidaire dryer that doe not have computer controls. It is the old fashioned dryer with the friction timer knob for choosing the minutes by cranking the knob to the time you want. I chose to keep the dryer, as it has a stainless steel interior, works like a commercial dryer, and has never had a problem. I replaced this sensor, and cleaned out all the ducts coming from the filter to the dryer exhaust. I put in the sensor, along with the two heater coils ($9) and voila, a perfectly heating dryer. The good news is that this dryer would not end up in a dump, as waste. It's great how just changing two parts(maybe $25max) results in saving nearly $1,000 on a new dryer and good for the environment.
