Compatibility & Fitment
This 3-piece thermal sensor kit is compatible with a wide range of electric dryers. Key compatible brands include:
- Samsung: Fits hundreds of DV series front-load and top-load matching electric dryers.
- Kenmore / Sears: Compatible with select 402-prefix electric dryers manufactured by Samsung.
- Amana & Maytag: Fits specific cross-compatible models utilizing these standard DC47/DC96-style thermal sensors.
- Note: Always verify your dryer runs on a standard 240V electrical connection. These thermal sensors are specifically rated for electric dryers and may not be compatible with gas models.
When to Replace
- No Heat Production: The dryer powers on and the drum spins normally, but the internal air remains completely cold throughout the entire cycle.
- Shuts Off Prematurely: The dryer starts but suddenly powers down after only a few minutes, indicating a tripped thermal fuse.
- Inconsistent Drying: Clothes require multiple cycles to fully dry, suggesting a failing thermostat is cutting power to the heating element too early.
- Preventative Maintenance: If you are replacing a burned-out heating element, it is highly recommended to replace these three sensors simultaneously to prevent the new element from failing.
Installation Tips
- Safety First: CRITICAL: Electric dryers in the United States operate on a high-voltage 240V circuit. You must completely unplug the machine from the wall outlet before removing the back panel to avoid severe electrical shock.
- Test for Continuity: PRO TIP: Before swapping the parts, use a digital multimeter to test each old sensor for continuity. A sensor with no continuity has "blown" and is the source of the heat failure.
- Document the Wiring: The heating assembly has multiple color-coded wires. Take a clear reference photo with your phone before disconnecting any spade terminals to ensure accurate reassembly.
- Clear the Exhaust Vent: A blown thermal fuse is almost always caused by restricted airflow. Thoroughly vacuum the internal dryer cabinet and clean your home's external exhaust duct to prevent the new fuses from blowing immediately upon your first test run.

Tax Hero!
Format: Paperback
I was scraping pennies for supplies in my small coffee shop located in the lowest level of an office building in Cleveland, OH. "Bookkeeping" consisted of a greasy shoe box nestled in the corner near the window. Tax wasn't an immediate concern because I barely had enough to pay rent. Several years passed. The box became larger and greasier. A friendly customer asked whom I would suggest for tax filing. I said, "When you find someone, let me know." When he visited again, he gave me a business card. By now, the box was bulging. I would have been embarrassed to approach a total stranger, but my customer was kind and I imagined his connection being the same. I got a cleaner, newer box and stuffed receipts corner to corner for facing the music.
What does my story have to do with Doug's book?
That scary first filing with the kindest person I've met in my long entrepreneurial career taught me a valuable lesson.
By the time the accountant stopped laughing at my "bookkeeping", he said, "I'm going to help you this year because you're trying to be a serious business person, but don't ever come to my office again with a shoebox. You have to keep records even if its time consuming. You also need to be incorporated, I'll help."
Lucky you! You have a hero.....Doug Collins.

Game Changing Information!
I bought this book months ago and like many others, it found its way to a pile of books I like to call "I'll read them eventually". Yesterday was eventually. A simple read, finished it in one sitting and came away with mountains of info that will save me thousands and even get me money back on previous years taxes. Great info on tax investing strategies as well, well worth the purchase price, and I can't wait to write it off!!

Great advice & tips
Format: Kindle
This book is helpful to new business owners with little to no experience with business tax preparation. I had about 5 pages that was helpful to me because I have had my small business for 8 years and familiar with some of the home based business write offs but there was some useful information that. Are it worth the read.
