Description: This Hi-Limit Thermostat is a replacement part for specific Maytag, Kenmore, Whirlpool dryer models. It functions as a critical safety device that monitors and controls the temperature within the dryer, preventing it from overheating. When the dryer reaches a temperature that is too high, this thermostat will cut off the power to the heating element to mitigate the risk of fire.
This is an aftermarket part that can be used as a replacement for the OEM part.
