Whirlpool WP3977767 Genuine OEM Dryer High Limit Thermostat

This Dryer High Limit Thermostat includes a terminal extension arm and opens at approximately 250 degrees Fahrenheit. The only difference between the high-limit thermostat and the operating thermostat is their opening and closing temperatures. If your dryer won't heat, this part might be defective and should be replaced. When replacing this part, consider using Whirlpool's high-quality and easy-to-install thermostat. Installing this part will require basic hand tools, such as a multi-screwdriver, some disassembly of the dryer, and novice repair experience. Before installing this part, remember to unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker to ensure safety. Helpful Tip: This replacement part may look different from the original thermostat in your appliance, but it will still install and operate the same way.
