Default Dryer problems
Model Number: SEDX600JQ0   Brand: Whirlpool   Age: 5 - 10 years   

My Dryer was not starting....I checked the Thermal Fuse....that was the problem...no continuity...I am replacing the Thermal Fuse.....my question is do I need to change the Thermostat Part Number: AP3131939 as well?

How do I check that Part Number AP3131939 Thermostat to see if that is the problem as well. How do I check the thermostat for Continuity? Which of the four wires should I pull off from the Thermostat and where should my OHM meter be touching to check the Continuity????

When replacing the Thermal Fuse do I need to also replace the Thermostat right below it?

Please help!

If it,s the first time replacing the fuse all I would check would be the dryer vent. Make sure it is not plugged or kinked and that the air flow is good.
