The Whirlpool W10900067 is a Genuine Whirlpool OEM dryer thermal cut-off and high-limit thermostat service kit used on the heater duct of compatible dryers.
These safety devices interrupt or limit the heating circuit if temperature rises beyond the designed range. If a thermal cut-off has opened, the underlying cause should be investigated rather than replacing the safety device alone.
Restricted exhaust airflow, lint blockage, blower problems, heating-system faults, or other overheating conditions can cause repeat safety-device failure.
