Product review (5 stars): Perfect replacement for Maytag 313538
Fast shipping. Product is not Maytag branded, but is an exact fit for Maytag model LDE412 dryer. The Maytag replacement part# 313538. This fits perfectly!
The seller incorrectly lists the dimension as 15.5 inches. This is the heater coil and measures 91 inches end-to-end as delivered.

The package arrived in three days. It was labeled as part number 3-13538 and came with a half-page, 5-step instruction sheet with a picture of the heating element installed in the cone (housing). A simple fix for anyone remotely handy. Tools required - screwdriver, 1/8 nut driver/socket, & 5/16 socket/wrench.

Those who lack confidence can watch a how-to video on the RepairClinic website. The video steps through the entire process. This product is 75% less than elsewhere on the internet.

I can not speak to how long it will last, but it replaced the 27 year old original perfectly. I doubt anything made today can last that long. This heater element is a slightly lighter gauge wire and NOT coated (green) like the original. I expect a shorter life, but only guessing at this time. Too early for me to tell.

Another happy customer and I will buy this again.
