SOURCE: On the Kenmore series 90 electric dryer, where is

The Thermal Fuse is located on the air blower housing. Its a small white plastic component with two wire leads.

The Thermal Cut-Out (TCO) is located on the outside of the heater box on the end opposite the heating element terminals.

The reason I mention both these components is because some people confuse the two and use the words interchangeably. There is a difference between the two components and what they do.

DOUBLE CHECK YOUR SYMPTOMS:

If your dryer does not run at all, check your Thermal Fuse.

If your dryer runs, but does not heat you need to check the Thermal Cut-Out.

If you have any questions, please post back and let me know what symptoms you are having. Please include your complete model number (located on a nameplate around the door opening) so that I can determine how your dryer is configured. I hope this is helpful to you.

Amana electric dryer won't heat up

It can really only be two things.

The element or wiring to it has failed
or
The Thermal fuse has been overheated and cut off power.

Both can be checked with a Digital Multimeter.

If your Amana dryer is not heating, it likely has either a defective heating element, thermal fuse, high-limit thermostat, or cycling thermostat. If you have a gas dryer, it is likely not heating because of a defective gas valve solenoid.

Amana dryer model YNED7200TW will not start. there is power, but start button does nothing. Resetting breaker did not work. Any ideas?

Thermal Fuse

Item #2986 (OEM Part)
$10.70

Thermal fuse. If the dryer overheats, this device stops the flow of electricity to the heat source and/or the entire dryer. It is located on the blower housing and cannot be reset. The most common cause for overheating is a vent tube clogged with lint, a birds nest or other debris.

Amana dryer model no led20aw will not start

Hi,
When the dryer won't heat or will not start it is the thermostat/thermal fuse that is bad, you can test it with a voltmeter before replacing. This fuse is located inside the rear panel and it cannot be reset.
Hope this will help....

My electric dryer is not blowing heat, just cool air. What is wrong with my dryer.

Check the following to address this issue.


1. Heating element
A burned out heating element will show no continuity when measured with a meter. Replace the element if found defective.

2. Thermal fuse
Most dryers have a thermal fuse, which burns out when the dryer overheats, in which case the dryer will either not run at all or stop heating. The fuse is usually located on the vent duct, inside the dryer. A blown fuse will show no continuity when measured with a meter. Before replacing the fuse, make sure the blower wheel is not broken or clogged, and there is nothing blocking the venting.

I was told my problem is the cutout, where can i find this part inside the dryer unit?

The thermal cutout(fuse) is normally located either near the heater (electric) or near burner (gas)...will either be flat and round with 2 terminals sticking out(wires) or flat and rectangular with 2 terminals. 6256b6c.jpg af7bf92.jpg Here are 2 typical thermal fuses which maybe what your looking for dependent on your dryer. Hope this helps! Mike

My AMANA electric drier will not heat

Verify 220 volts to the terminal block where the cord connects.
If 220 is there, unplug the dryer and check the thermal fuse and hi-limit thermostats on the dryer cannister.
