Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
This dryer heating element kit is 240 volts and 4750 watts. The function of the heating element is to produce the heat that allows you to dry your clothing during your dryer cycle. If your clothes take too long to dry, or if your dryer is not getting any heat or enough heat, you may need to replace your element. Before you begin your repair, make sure to disconnect the power from the dryer. The tools you will need for this repair include a putty knife, a quarter-inch nut driver, and a pair of needle nose pliers.
How Buying OEM Parts Can Save You Time and Money
Why buy the real thing?
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. Simply put, this means that the company who made your appliance is also supplying the replacement part for it.

Dryer would not heat
Tilt dryer top. Inspect damaged part(s). In my case it was the high-limit thermostat; but since the dryer is old, I ordered the heating element kit. The thermostat is included. Disconnect wires from thermostat and remove. Disconnect wires from element and remove. Carefully install new element and reconnect wires. Same for thermostat. Dry

My dryer was still running but the clothes were not drying. Since I didn't know if it was the heating element or the thermostat, I ordered the part that includes both.
My son actually did the repair when he was over here and said it was so easy, even "Mom" could've done it! He said all he did was unscrew one little screw, life out the old part, drop the new part into that slot and replace the screw! It's the easiest repair I've ever heard of!

Dryer won't heat
Contrary to instructions that I found on the web, the element is not accessed through the back. Pop the top of the dryer up and the element is visible in the top of the back . Pretty easy job.

I need to replace the heating element on my Crosley dryer. The instructional video (which is great!) shows the thermostat being replaced also. Does the thermostat come with the heating element part or is that ordered seperately? Is it necessary to replace the thermostat when replacing the heating element?
For model number cde6000w
Hello Judy, thank you for your question. Yes, the two parts come together. You would get the Heating element assembly with replacement high limit thermostat. I hope this helps!

If i should order the heating element and it dont solve the problem would the item still be returnable?
For model number pye2000ayw
Hi Jack, thanks for your question. I just cross-referenced your part with your model number and this heating element (PS2162280) is compatible with your dryer. If it doesn't solve the problem, you may also want to take a look at our repair help section to determine what other parts may be malfunctioning and causing this symptom. Unfortunately electrical parts which show signs of being installed or used cannot be accepted for refund under any circumstances. I hope this helps, and good luck with your repair.

Heating element for a Whirlpool dryer. Which part would match this model?
For model number le7680xsn1
Hi Marie,
Thank you for your question. This would not be the correct part. I have linked the correct part down below for you. Good luck with your repair.
When dryer is turned on only the timer works at a loss please help.
For model number YE20HN3
Hi Asbury, Thank you for the question.I suggest testing or replacing the Door Switch.This dryer door switch contains three metal terminals. It is a simple on/off mechanism that prohibits the dryer from operating when the door is open.Hope this helps!

The dryer has warm air but not hot. I checked and only half the coil "glows" the temperature is set to high. I have 240 volts. I have continuity on the coil and thermostat. I was planning on changing the element or is there something else i should look at?
For model number PYE2300AYW
Hi Rick,
Thank you for your question. You may also want to check your control thermostat and both of the thermal fuses in your appliance as well. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Hi, I have an Admiral dryer cemma I had a friend get one of those continuity testers and contested and it showed the heating element was out. But when I search the part on any website it shows a thermostat included I can't find the heating element separately. Does this Mean the thermostat is also out? Should I have my friend come test the thermostat separately? Or does this mean they just come as an assembly kit and I can replace the heating element therefore sitting on the new thermostat to use if needed down the road? Very confusing!!
For model number LNC7766B71
Hi Elsa, thank you for your question. The heating element kit, part number PS2162280, comes with a thermostat. The heating element is not sold separately. The kit includes the heating element and the thermostat. You can test the thermostat for continuity and if it is working, then you may only need to replace the heating element. We hope this sorts out your problem!

I'm getting no heat at all on Maytag. I assume it's the element. So should i do more than just replacing the element?
For model number HYE3658AYW
Hello Steven, thank you for your question. It would not be a bad idea to test the thermostats in the unit to rule them out before purchasing and replacing the element. I hope this helps.

Electric dryer does not heat at all, spins, blow air out of exhaust but does not heat
For model number ade7000ayw
Hello J, thank you for your question. This gas dryer could be having an issue with the M Series New Style Coil Kit Part Number: 279834, Radiant Flame Sensor Part Number: WP338906 ,or Igniter with Wire Harness Part Number: WP31001556. We would recommend testing/replacing those parts first. I hope this helps!
