Review: Worked great for me. Be sure to clean your duct and vent! - My dryer was blowing the breaker when I tried to start a cycle. This was because the heating element coil had stretched and touched the dryer frame, causing a short. It also blew/tripped the white rectangular non-resetable fuse. I like this kit because it comes with the heating element and every thermal fuse (with some backups) you might need to get your dryer working again. I replaced the heating element and the white fuse and the dryer is working like a charm. REMEMBER, if your fuses are blowing, it means the dryer is Over-Temping and it's most likely happening because your dryer vent tube and/or outside vent is blocked with lint, which reduces air flow and thus raises the operating temperatures (drying is probably much slower than it used to be too). Run your dryer on the no-heat setting and go outside and see if you are getting good air flow - it should be like a big wind, not a small breeze.
Review: Well Priced. - Perfect fit and easy to install.
