This fuse acts as a safety device that stops the flow of electricity to the heating element (or heater coil) when dryer overheats. When this fuse trips or becomes faulty, your dryer will not start or it won't heat properly. This is a one time fuse and cannot be re-set. It must be replaced when there is no continuity between its terminals. It's very simple to test the fuse for continuity if you have an ohmmeter or a multimeter and are familiar with how to use it. Because the fuse is so inexpensive, many people that do not have a meter opt out to simply replace it instead based on the symptoms. For example, if your dryer is too noisy, this fuse is not the likely culprit. On the other hand, if your dryer won't start or does not produce any heat, it is very likely that this fuse is the problem. The fuse has two 3/16 inch male terminals and is attached to two 3/16 female terminals on the dryer blower wheel housing. Blown fuses can be caused by clogged dryer vents and we highly recommend checking to make sure that all of the vents are clear of lint when replacing the fuse. Vacuum cleaner comes pretty handy when cleaning dryer vents. And, as always, when dealing with electricity, you must insure that the power is shut off to your appliance before performing any repairs or disassembly. This dryer thermal fuse is fairly simple and quick to replace and is a good reminder to keep your dryer vents clean.
