Product review (5 stars): It works in my Kenmore dryer and was easy and straightforward to install
Got it fast! It works in my Kenmore dryer and was easy and straightforward to install. Clothes are drying once again! Just plain awesome! Details- I have a kenmore 800 dryer. It's really easy to get to the heating element where these puppies are installed. You basically just pop off the bottom panel of the dryer and remove two screws to pull the heating element and housing out where these thermostats are installed. Just remember how the wires are attached (i snapped a few pics with my phone) and install these just like the old one. You can use an Ohm meter to test the old ones to see if they work (find a youtube video if needed). Thats how I found one of mine wasn't working, rather than the heating element itself which was great because they are much cheaper to replace. Not sure about durability but so far my dryer is working after exchanging this thermostat.
