Whirlpool WGD5850SW0 Dryer Replacement Parts

Dryer thermal fuse. Opens at approximately 196°F (91°C). *If open check for air flow issues like plugged exhaust vent or damaged blower wheel

A bad fuse will have no continuity meaning the electrical path is broken. A multimeter can be used to test it for continuity.

The Dryer Repair & Maintenance Kit 4392065 includes rollers, a belt, and an idler pulley. It is specifically designed for 29 wide dryers built in 1965 or later. This kit addresses common issues that cause Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, and KitchenAid dryers to become noisy.

Dryer door switch assembly. If the dryer does not start then the door switch could be defective. This switch also replaces the two wire switch.

Dryer gas burner valve solenoid set. If the dryer does not heat or heats intermittently the coils could be defective. To test, watch the burner and if the igniter glows for a while and then shuts off without the gas igniting, it usually means one of these coils is bad.

The drum support roller kit, 349241T. If the dryer is making a rumbling or knocking noise the rollers may be worn out causing the drum not to turn smoothly.

The drum rollers and drum roller axles often wear out at the same time. If the drum roller axles are worn out, replace them along with the drum rollers.

Dryer lint screen assembly. Proper air flow is critical to dryer operation so the filter should be cleaned before every load.
