Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Dryer not heating
• Dryer taking too long to dry
• Overheating associated with a damaged or loose heating-element connection

Check Before Replacing

• Disconnect power and inspect the wires and terminals at the heating element for burned, melted, corroded, or broken connections.
• Verify that the heating-element connection wire and terminal are securely connected before replacing the heating element.
• Test related heating-circuit components separately rather than assuming this wire kit is the cause of a no-heat condition.
