Description
You may not have heard of the Whirlpool 279769 Dryer Thermal Fuse before, but it plays an important role in keeping your dryer running safely and smoothly. It monitors the temperature inside the drum, and if it senses things getting too hot, it’ll shut down the power to the dryer, preventing it from overheating and starting a fire. Plus, replacing the Whirlpool Dryer Thermal Fuse is a breeze. Simply remove the back panel of your dryer, locate the fuse, and swap it out for the new one.
