FAQs

This thermal limiter is compatible with Frigidaire, Kenmore, and Electrolux dryers.
This part replaces OEM numbers 134711401, 134711400, 7134711400, 2688797, AP5645246, PS4704883, and EAP4704883.
If your dryer is not heating, or if the dryer shuts off mid-cycle and refuses to restart, the thermal limiter may have tripped due to an overheating condition. You should test the component for continuity using a multimeter; if there is no continuity, the fuse has blown and requires replacement.
The most common cause of a blown thermal limiter is restricted airflow. Before installing a new part, inspect your dryer's vent hose, exterior vent hood, and internal lint trap for blockages. If the dryer cannot exhaust hot air efficiently, the temperature will rise until the limiter trips to prevent a fire hazard.
Installation is generally straightforward and can typically be completed in 20 to 30 minutes. You will primarily need a screwdriver (usually Phillips head) to remove the dryer's back or front panel to access the blower housing where the limiter is mounted. Always ensure the dryer is unplugged from the power source before beginning any repair.
