What it fixes
A one-shot safety device that blows if the dryer overheats, cutting power to the heater. Fit it if you see:
- The dryer runs but there is no heat
- The dryer will not start at all on some models
- A recent history of long drying times or a hot, blocked vent
- No continuity across the fuse when tested
Will it fit your appliance?
This is a compatible equivalent made by another company, so fit depends on the model. The details below come from the seller’s own listing and are shown so you can compare them with your rating plate. Always confirm on the Amazon page before you buy.
From the seller’s listing:
- Easy to install: Replaces the existing fuse in your dryer with identical mounting points for proper fit
Other part numbers it is listed as replacing: PS10065161. Matching one of these to the number on your old part is the most reliable check.
Check your model number first. It is on the rating plate — usually inside the door frame, on the back or side panel, or inside the appliance. Parts that look identical often differ by model, so match the number to the listing before you order.
How to fit it
- Unplug the dryer
- Remove the rear or lower panel and find the fuse on the blower housing or heater box
- Pull off the two terminals and release the old fuse
- Fit the new fuse and reconnect the terminals
- 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.
