This is a thermostat for various models of LG dryers. This thermostat specifically is the rear high limit thermostat, and it is designed as a safety device to shut off power to your dryer if the internal temperature gets too high. This thermostat comes with a mounting bracket, so you only need the securing screws to fully install it, along with connecting the appropriate wire, after removing the old thermostat. If your dryer is no longer heating properly, or will not start, this thermostat may have been used and is no longer operational. Replacing this thermostat will require you to partly disassemble your dryer, as it is located on the heating element housing. This thermostat is a genuine OEM part and is sold individually.

Dryer not heating
I followed video instruction in disassembling and set screws from each section into diferent small bowls in the order they were removed. Hardest part was some of the screws were really hard to get loose without stripping them and my control panel did not match video but I figured it out. Replacing the parts were easy and putting it back
... Read more together. While it was apart I cleaned everything including fan blower wheel. Thanks for the right parts and your online video. With your help and a prayer this 62 year old woman fixed the problem and dryer runs like new.

I have replaced both the thermostat and the thermistor that i purchased from you, yet i still have no heat. The dryer runs properly otherwise but does not heat up. Any help would be greatly appreciated
For model number DLEX2501V
Hello Jake, thank you for your question. I would recommend testing/replacing the THERMOSTAT
Part Number: 6931EL3002M and Thermostat Assembly Part Number: 6931EL3001F next. When a dryer doesn't heat, the most common issue is one or more thermostats. You can test these thermostats before ordering by using a multimeter, and checking for continuity. I hope this helps!

In the diagram of the dryer the part f130 and f140 are not the same off course, but they do more or less the same work
For model number DLE5955W
Hello Arley, Thank you for your inquiry. One part 6931EL3003D is a high limit thermal fuse which acts like a safety device to prevent the dryer from overheating by telling the thermostat to shut off when it reaches a certain temperature and the other part 6931EL3001F is the thermostat which actually regulates the temperature. Hope this helps!

Does the "assembly" include the blower thermostat (ps8747887) and the thermistor (ps3529026) for an electric dryer?

Will the thermostat assembly make the dryer not to power on if the thermal fuse is good? If so, is it likely for this to happen?
For model number DLE2301R
Hello Billie Jean,
Thanks for your question. We would advise testing the door switch and belt switch for continuity and replacing them if they show no continuity. Check the belt to see if it is intact and remove it from the blower motor, which you should check for obstructions. If all of the above parts are intact, consider replacing the drive motor or the control board.
I hope this helps.
My dyer was not heating and would not stop spinning i got a new thermal fuse and a new assembly thermostat still no heat but the spinning did stop when it is suppose to but can’t get any heat what do you suggest
For model number Dlex2650r
Hello Wendy, Thank you for your inquiry. I would check the heating element, the thermistor/temperature sensor, the blower thermostat(6931EL3002M), and the main control board. Hope this helps!

I have replaced all 3 parts that you have recommended in my LG dlex2501v dryer that is not producing any heat, the thermistor, the thermostat, and the thermostat assembly. Still no heat. Anything else? I haven't tried replacing the thermal fuse since your website indicates the dryer won't start if that needs replaced.
For model number dlex2501v
Hi Jake, Thank you for the question. I suggest checking the Sensor, PartSelect Number: PS3529161 and the heater assembly it's self. Hope this helps!
