How does this part attach to my appliance. Thermostat assembly and thermostat? What tools will i need?
For model number DLE3733W
Hi Corando,
Thank you for your question. It looks like this part is attached to the actual drum of your dryer. You should just need to remove the back panel of your machine to get to it. I hope this helps. Good luck with your repair.

We heard a pop and then an electrical smell, and then no longer had heat but it was still running? I am trying to locate the correct part and see if we can do this ourselves?
For model number DLE3733W
Hello Crista, Thank you for the question. I suggest testing the Thermal Fuse,PartSelect Number PS3530485. It could have shorted out. This thermal fuse acts as a high-limit thermostat, and shuts off the heating element when the dryer overheats by cutting off power to the dryer. Hope this helps!
The dryer is still running but not blowing hot air. We heard a pop and smelled electric wire burn and them no longer had hear but still runs
For model number Dle3733w
Hello Crista, Thank you for contacting us. I would suggest testing the PartSelect Number PS3529026 Thermister, The blower Thermostat PartSelect Number PS8747887, The Thermostat Assembly PartSelect Number PS3530481 and the Element its self PartSelect Number PS3527791. They can be tested with a multi meter to check for continuity. Hope this helps!
Does this work with my model and what does this assembly include? Does it include both the Thermal Cut-Out (TCO) and Hi-Limit Thermostat?

Hello Sharon, thank you for writing. The Thermal Cut off fuse is a separate PartSelect Number PS3530485. The Hi-limit is sold as a separate PartSelect Number PS3530481. Good luck and have a great day.
