Product review (5 stars): You need a thermostat to go with this
If you are buying this part you absolutely must buy the corresponding LG 6931EL3001F thermostat or the corresponding thermostat for your model. A few of the negative reviews say that this fuse only lasted a short time and that is because they didn't replace the thermostat when replacing the fuse. You can check the fuse with a simple continuity test but it's nearly impossible to properly test the thermostat because you'd need to precisely measure and control the thermostat temperature to test if it's shutting off at the right temp. 95% of the time, if the thermal fuse blows, it's because the thermostat isn't working properly.
