high limit thermostat failed from overheating, the thermal fuse has been under the same stress and may be close to failure — or already blown. The thermal fuse is a one-time device (no continuity = must replace). Replacing both together costs a few dollars more but eliminates a second disassembly call. Also check the cycling thermostat while the panel is off — it’s the root regulator and a common companion failure on this platform.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"model-link-grid\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed4850hw0-whirlpool-dryer-parts\"\u003eWED4850HW0\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"XPart Supply Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"XPart","offer_id":51042658222369,"sku":"WP3977767XP","price":19.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"OEM","offer_id":51042658189601,"sku":"WP3977767","price":24.27,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0897\/7783\/2225\/files\/thermal-switch-temperature-control-metal-bracket.jpg?v=1753722676"},{"product_id":"279816-dryer-thermal-fuse-and-high-limit-thermostat-kit","title":"Whirlpool 279816 Dryer Thermal Cut-Off Kit — Fixes No Heat \u0026 Long Drying Times","description":"\u003cstyle\u003e\n.hero-banner{position:relative;overflow:hidden;background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgba(0,0,0,.82) 60%,rgba(0,0,0,.45)),url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0897\/7783\/2225\/files\/279816-dryer-thermal-fuse-kit-complete-parts-overview.png?v=1774205009') center\/cover no-repeat;padding:44px 34px;border-radius:12px;margin:0 0 28px;color:#fff;box-shadow:0 10px 30px rgba(0,0,0,.25)}\n.hero-banner:before{content:'';position:absolute;inset:0;background:radial-gradient(circle at center,rgba(0,153,255,.20),transparent 65%);animation:pulse 5s infinite}\n.hero-banner\u003e*{position:relative;z-index:2}\n.hero-banner h2{margin:0 0 8px;font-size:1.85em;font-weight:900;letter-spacing:.2px;line-height:1.1}\n.label{display:inline-block;background:#c8a400;color:#000;font-size:.72em;font-weight:900;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:1px;padding:5px 12px;border-radius:999px;margin-bottom:12px}\n.hero-specs{display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:8px;margin-top:15px}\n.hero-specs span{background:rgba(255,255,255,.14);border:1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.25);border-radius:999px;padding:7px 13px;font-size:.82em;font-weight:800}\n.pro-tip{background:#1a1a2e;border-left:5px solid #c8a400;padding:16px 20px;border-radius:8px;margin:24px 0;color:#f0f0f0;font-size:.95em;line-height:1.6}\n.pro-tip strong{color:#c8a400}\n@keyframes pulse{50%{opacity:.85}}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"hero-banner\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"label\"\u003eOEM REPLACEMENT KIT\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhirlpool 279816 Dryer Thermal Cut-Off Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"hero-specs\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003ePart# 279816\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eReplaces 3392519 + 3977767\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eFits Whirlpool\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eFits Kenmore\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eFits Maytag\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch1\u003eDryer Not Heating?

Remove the back panel to access the heating element housing. Disconnect the two wire leads, remove the element mounting screws, and slide the old element out. Install the new element in reverse order, ensuring the coil does not contact the housing. Reconnect leads and test before reassembling the panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e💡 Pro Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pro-tip\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003eAlways replace the thermal fuse at the same time:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n  The thermal fuse blows to protect the element — if the element failed, the fuse likely did too. Replacing only the element without checking the fuse means the dryer may not heat at all, or the new element will fail prematurely. While the back panel is off, also clean the full exhaust duct — restricted airflow is the root cause of most element failures.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85em;color:#555;margin-top:28px;\"\u003eModel hubs: \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed4800\"\u003eWED4800\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed4850\"\u003eWED4850\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed4900\"\u003eWED4900\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed5100\"\u003eWED5100\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed5000\"\u003eWED5000\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed5500\"\u003eWED5500\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed5700\"\u003eWED5700\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed5800\"\u003eWED5800\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/wed5900\"\u003eWED5900\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0897\/7783\/2225\/files\/Screenshot_2026-01-18_135700.png?v=1774205009\" style=\"width:600px;max-width:100%;display:block;margin-top:24px;\" alt=\"279838 – Dryer Heating Element Parts Diagram\"\u003e","brand":"XPart Supply Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"XPart","offer_id":50665007284513,"sku":"279838XP","price":69.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"OEM","offer_id":50665007251745,"sku":"279838","price":73.06,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Used","offer_id":52651833688353,"sku":"279838","price":29.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0897\/7783\/2225\/files\/image_f49936dd-7204-4def-962b-ea7b003f75a3.png?v=1774145072"}],"url":"https:\/\/xpartsupply.com\/collections\/whirlpool-dryer-11067132411-parts.oembed","provider":"XPart Supply Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
