Dryer High-Limit Thermostat For: Samsung, Whirlpool, Kenmore L0017A, DC47-00017A

Dryer High-Limit Thermostat For: Samsung, Whirlpool, Kenmore L0017A, DC47-00017A

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before servicing. If a high-limit thermostat has failed, also check for restricted airflow, since a clogged vent is the most common cause.

Protect your dryer from overheating with this ERP replacement high-limit thermostat for compatible Samsung, Whirlpool, and Kenmore dryers. The high-limit thermostat cuts power to the heating circuit when exhaust temperature climbs too high; when it fails or trips, the dryer tumbles but produces no heat, overheats, or shuts off mid-cycle. This 60T11 style L230-50F thermostat is a direct replacement for the listed part numbers. Verify the complete dryer model and original part number before ordering.
