The Dryer Thermal Fuse shuts off the burner in a gas dryer or the motor in an electric dryer when the appliance overheats. If your dryer won't start or will run but no longer heat, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. Note that the thermal fuse cannot be reset. Fuses may blow due to a clogged dryer vent, so make sure you clean out this vent when installing the new part. The fuse is located behind the lower front access panel of the dryer. For easier access, you may want to remove the dryer drum behind the entire front panel. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the appliance and novice repair experience. You must unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker before installing this part.
