PartSelect Thank you for a excellent, informative and complete video presentation on where to locate and how to replace a Whirlpool Dryer High Limit Switch. My Whirlpool Gas Dryer now heats up and operates properly. I also do believe that your video is a World-class, outstanding presentation!
I tested this using two multimeters and they tested fine. I know the thermal fuse is NOT re-settable and after it cools down, the dryer will work just fine. I notice it cuts out at about 20 minutes, I let it cool and than it starts again. The dial also works thru all functions, provided its under 20 minutes. Do you think its the motor? When I saw cuts out, I am referring to the whole machine, not just the flame. Yes I cleaned out the ducts really good, I even took it out and cleaned it.
@partselect I had my thermal fuse blown and in the service label it states: "Electric Models - If heater box thermal cut-off is OPEN: A) Change the thermal cut-off and hi-limit thermostat." Now is that located where you show in this video? And why would I have to replace it if it works when I test it for continuity?
I have a Whirlpool LGN1000HQ0 gas dryer and I noticed the machine will turn on, but when it gets to the energy saving * setting it will turn off and not re-start at all settings. I have to wait till it cools and than it will start. It drys well, so problem with the heat, could it be the thermal fuse or the cycling thermo thermostat? I also noticed it has 4 prongs (cycling) and I tested them using a multimeter it beeps between the far away prongs, but not the close ones (purple wires), Thanks.
Hi! Great video - I have a Maytag Dryer Model #: HYG3658AWW. I have replaced the High Thermostat Limit Kit LA-1053 with 3 sensors and purchased separately another High Limit (gas model) sensor with a yellow dot and Sensor 53-2754. I replaced all of them. Still it does not HEAT any suggestions would really appreciate your help. By the way I vacuumed out your dryer as this is importance to maintaining proper air flow so the dryer so it could run smoothly and I cleaned the air duct and wall socket. Boy, it was jammed with lent...
+Kenn Cuevas If the gas valve igniter does not glow check both the igniter and the flame sensor for continuity with a multi-meter.If both test okay you will then need to make some live voltage tests which should only be performed by a qualified person.

World-class, outstanding presentation. Thank you for this most welcome contribution. You are THE BEST!
I changed the thermostat but I was giving a newer version and there is orange wire that doesn't have a place any thoughts.

+Kenn Cuevas Can you tell me where to find the 53-2754 sensor. Can't seem to find it anywhere.
Hi sadoche! I got it from :)

I have a Whirlpool AWZ 8666 dryer that never finishes programs and keeps on drying. I stop it manually. Anyway it dryes well. Any suggestion?
Have a look at the door switch, thermostats and the timer and test those parts with a multi-meter.
Umm i only have 2 wires to hook back on?
Same, you ever figure it out?
ok, so one of us is confused. The part you just replaced wasn't the High Limit Thermostat or at least not on mine.
Yeah, neither mine. Mine is at the top of the same housing

@@red2965 No I didn't get it fixed because my lady had another storage. I think it may have been the lint trap
