  • Description: Whirlpool 279973 Genuine OEM Dryer High-Limit Thermostat and Thermal Fuse Kit
    Fits Brand: WHIRLPOOL / MAYTAG / KENMORE / AMANA / ROPER
    Manufacturer: WHIRLPOOL
    Manufacturer Part Number: 279973
    OEM Status: Genuine OEM Part
    Product Type: Dryer High-Limit Thermostat & Thermal Fuse Kit
    The Whirlpool 279973 kit combines a high-limit thermostat and thermal fuse used in the heater safety circuit of compatible electric dryers.
    The thermal fuse is rated at approximately 352°F, while the companion thermostat is identified as L146.1-44.4°C. Both components should be tested when diagnosing a no-heat or overheating-related safety failure.
    A blown thermal fuse is a safety event, not simply a routine wear item. Restricted venting, poor airflow, blocked lint paths, or another overheating cause should be corrected before returning the dryer to service.
