Speed Queen Dryer Heater Kit Assembly, 5 kW, 240 Volt/60 Hertz 61927

Genuine Speed Queen 240-volt, 5 kW heater kit assembly for electric dryers. The manufacturer parts manual specifies that it includes the heater-related items 4 through 9: wire assemblies, thermal fuse assembly, limit thermostat, heater assembly, and associated screw.

The heater produces the heat used during the drying cycle. A failed element or open safety component may contribute to no heat, insufficient heat or unusually long drying times.

Similar symptoms can also result from restricted exhaust airflow, wiring damage, incorrect supply voltage, a thermostat, timer or electronic control. Confirm the complete dryer model and diagnose the heating circuit before ordering.

Disconnect electrical power before service. Inspect and correct restricted dryer venting before returning the appliance to operation.
