W11050897 Whirlpool High Limit Dryer Thermostat
This Dryer High Limit Thermostat protects your dryer from overheating by cutting off power if the dryer gets too hot. If the dryer won't heat, the high-limit thermostat may have blown. This part has been updated by the manufacturer. The new thermostat may differ in appearance, but will have the same function. The part is located behind the front access panel of the dryer. When replacing, make note of the the position of the colored wires when disconnecting. Both the thermostat and fuse can be tested to determine if either is defective. Note that a multimeter (item 964740) can be used to test for continuity to determine if the thermostat is defective and requires replacement. Installing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the dryer and novice repair experience. You must unplug the dryer or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before installing this part.

With a little bit of time and effort, you can complete this DIY task and restore the functionality of your appliance. Here are the steps for replacing the Whirlpool W11050897 CUTOFF-TML:
Step 1: Preparation
Before you start this project, make sure you have the necessary tools and materials on hand. You will need a set of screwdrivers (Phillips head, flathead), a new replacement Whirlpool W11050897 CUTOFF-TML, a pair of needle-nose pliers, and a vacuum cleaner.
Step 2: Unplug the Appliance
Safety first – before doing anything else, make sure to unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet. This will ensure the safety of both you and your appliance during the repair process.
Step 3: Access the CUTOFF-TML
Depending on your model, the CUTOFF-TML may be located behind a panel in the back or side of the appliance. Use a Phillips head screwdriver or needle-nose pliers to remove any screws holding the panel in place. Once you have opened the panel, locate the CUTOFF-TML and take note of its position.

Using your Phillips head screwdriver, remove the screws holding the CUTOFF-TML in place. Carefully pull the old CUTOFF-TML out of the appliance, taking special care not to damage any of the surrounding components. Once it is removed, use a vacuum cleaner to clean up any particles that may have been released during the removal process.
Step 5: Install the New CUTOFF-TML
Take the new CUTOFF-TML and slide it into the same slot as the previous one. Make sure that the connections are properly aligned and secure the CUTOFF-TML with the screws you removed previously.
Step 6: Test the Connections
Once the new CUTOFF-TML is installed, plug the appliance back into the electrical outlet and test the connections. Make sure that the water is flowing properly and that all the settings are working correctly.
These steps should guide you through the process of replacing the Whirlpool W11050897 CUTOFF-TML. However, if you are unsure about any of the steps or feel uncomfortable performing the repair, contact a qualified technician for assistance.
Please keep in mind, these instructions are for general guidance and should always be used in conjunction with the manufacturer's manual, if available.
