Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Dryer is not drying properly
• No heat or insufficient heat
• Dryer becomes too hot
• Drying cycle ends too soon

Check Before Replacing

• Disconnect power before accessing or testing the dryer.
• Confirm the appliance model calls for this four-terminal, 210°F inlet cycling thermostat before ordering or installing.
• Inspect the thermostat terminals and connected wiring for loose connections or visible heat damage.
• If qualified to use a multimeter, isolate the thermostat from the dryer circuit and perform a continuity check; continuity alone at room temperature does not confirm that it cycles at its specified temperatures.
• Do not diagnose this thermostat from symptoms alone, because other dryer components can produce similar heating and drying complaints.

Pro Tip

Part Details

Key Features

• Genuine OEM dryer cycling/operating thermostat
• Four-terminal configuration
• 210°F temperature limit
• Approximately 30°F cycling differential
• Inlet-biased L210-30F thermostat

Installation Notes

• Disconnect electrical power before service.
• Use the model-specific parts diagram and wiring layout for access and reassembly; cabinet disassembly differs by dryer model.
• For the documented legacy WE4M181 installation, the thermostat mounts on the heating duct using a retaining tab; ensure the replacement is seated and retained in the same location.
• Restore each wire to its original terminal position and do not bypass the thermostat or other temperature-safety controls.
