How to fit it

  1. Unplug the dryer
  2. Remove the rear or lower panel and find the fuse on the blower housing or heater box
  3. Pull off the two terminals and release the old fuse
  4. Fit the new fuse and reconnect the terminals
  5. Clear the vent and test the dryer

Difficulty: Easy to moderate. Typical time: 20 to 45 minutes. Read the full dryer thermal fuse guide, including checks to run before you buy.

Safety. Unplug the dryer before you start (and switch off the breaker if it is hard-wired). A blocked vent is a fire risk, so always clear the cause of any overheating.
