{"product_id":"we4m137","title":"GE Dryer High-Limit Thermostat (WE4M137)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe GE Dryer High-Limit Thermostat is a safety device that monitors the temperature inside your electric dryer and cuts power to the heating element if it gets too hot. It acts as a backup protection against overheating, opening the circuit when temperatures exceed a safe threshold to prevent damage to the dryer or a potential fire hazard. Once the thermal limit is reached, the thermostat interrupts the heat source until conditions return to normal or the part is replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GE Dryer High-Limit Thermostat can fail if the dryer repeatedly overheats due to restricted airflow, a clogged lint trap, or a blocked exhaust vent. A failed thermostat may trip and not reset, or it may lose its ability to accurately sense temperature, leaving the dryer with no heat or causing it to shut off too early during the cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLook for these symptoms to help determine if this part needs to be replaced:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Dryer produces no heat at all during the cycle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Dryer shuts off before clothes are fully dry\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Dryer runs but takes much longer than normal to dry a load\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Dryer stops mid-cycle and will not restart until it cools down\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Clothes come out damp even after a full drying cycle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Dryer overheats and feels excessively hot to the touch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42517130018901,"sku":"WE4M137","price":74.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/6189\/2437\/files\/ge-dryer-high-limit-thermostat-we4m137.jpg?v=1779253954","url":"https:\/\/homepartsplus.com\/products\/we4m137","provider":"Home Parts Plus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
