W10909685 - Whirlpool Dryer Thermal Fuse

This Dryer Thermal Fuse (W10909685) is an essential component for your dryer, manufactured by Whirlpool. It's designed to shut off the burner in a gas dryer or the motor in an electric dryer when the appliance overheats, helping to prevent potential fire hazards. Compatible with Maytag and Whirlpool brands, this genuine part is crucial for the safety and efficiency of your appliance. Commonly referred to as a "safety fuse" or "thermal limiter", this component plays a pivotal role in your dryer's operation. If your dryer fails to start, doesn't heat up, or shuts off too quickly, it could indicate that the thermal fuse has blown and needs replacement. Be sure to verify your dryer's model number for compatibility before purchasing.
