Thermal Cutoff for Whirlpool Dryer

Part No. 8573713

  • Purpose: This thermal cut-off fuse is a safety device designed for dryers. It interrupts the electrical flow to the dryer’s heating element if the dryer overheats, preventing potential fire hazards.
  • Location: Typically located on the dryer’s heating element housing or blower housing, depending on the dryer model.
  • Failure Symptoms:
    • Dryer runs but does not produce heat
    • Dryer stops mid-cycle
    • Dryer does not start
  • Diagnosis: Inspect the thermal cut-off fuse for continuity using a multimeter; a lack of continuity indicates a blown fuse. Additionally, check for visible signs of damage or overheating. Alternatively, contact the U-FIX-IT store for free diagnosis assistance.
