7MWGD1500AQ2 Whirlpool Dryer - Instructions

When the part came in. I unplugged the dryer. Pulled it away from the wall and took the back off. I pulled the wires off the old fuse and plugged them in the new fuse, then unscrewed the on nut that held the old fuse. Then slid the new one in and put the nut back on. Plugged the dryer in and it worked. So I unplugged the dryer and put the back on.

Unplugged dryer from wall. Removed screws from the back using the socket set. Removed thermostat screws and disconnected wires(one at a time) while replacing new thermostat. Replaced second thermal and tightened screws. Replaced back panel on dryer. Plugged in, turned on and dryer was repaired..

Followed procedures in Parts Select web site video

You saved me a great deal of aggravation and more important money

Removed the back panel, found the fuse and replaced it. Easiest thing I've ever done! I was expecting it not to be the problem, but I started with the "most common" issue via the website. Voila...it was the problem!

little more than vedio showed has a see thru door had to tke door off machine then was easy replacement and re install

Unlike your video, with this model, the thermal fuse is located near the front of the dryer, which I didn't find out until the back was already off.

I watched the online video first, which made the removal and installation fast and easy.
