DC47-00019A Complete Dryer Heating Element & Thermal Sensor Rebuild Kit

Key Features

• Comprehensive 5-Piece Overhaul: Includes every critical component needed to fully rebuild your dryer's heating system: the primary heating element, thermistor, thermal fuse, and two thermal cut-off thermostats.
• High-Performance Heating Coil: The primary element (DC47-00019A) is strung with a premium nickel-chromium alloy wire, delivering high heat conductivity and superior resistance to warping or sagging over prolonged use.
• Precision-Calibrated Sensors: Each thermal fuse and thermostat is factory-calibrated to trip at exact OEM temperature specifications, protecting your dryer and home from dangerous overheating conditions.
• Direct Drop-In Fitment: All components feature standard spade terminals and perfectly aligned mounting brackets, ensuring a quick, plug-and-play installation without the need for wire splicing.
• Maximized Lifespan: Replacing the element and all regulating sensors simultaneously prevents older, weakened sensors from "short cycling" or prematurely burning out your brand-new heating element.

Compatibility & Fitment

This universal 5-piece rebuild kit is designed for a wide range of standard and high-efficiency electric dryers. Key compatible brands include:

• Samsung: Fits hundreds of DV series front-load and top-load matching dryers (e.g., DV42H5200EW, DV45H7000EW, DV42H5000EW, DV210AEW).
• Kenmore / Sears: Compatible with select 402-prefix electric dryers manufactured by Samsung.
• Amana / Maytag: Fits specific cross-compatible models utilizing the DC47-style heating assembly.
• Note: Always verify your dryer runs on a standard 240V electrical connection. This heating element kit is specifically rated for electric dryers and is not compatible with gas models.

When to Replace

• No Heat: The dryer runs and spins normally, but the clothes remain completely cold and wet at the end of the cycle.
• Takes Too Long to Dry: If it takes two or three cycles to dry a single load of towels, the element may be partially broken or a sensor is cutting the heat off too early.
• Dryer Shuts Off Mid-Cycle: A faulty thermistor (DC32-00007A) can send incorrect temperature readings to the control board, causing the dryer to abort the cycle prematurely.
• Visible Coil Breakage: If you inspect the element housing and see a snapped or burned-through section of the internal coil wire, the entire assembly requires immediate replacement.

Installation Tips

• Safety First: CRITICAL: Electric dryers operate on 240V. You must unplug the dryer from the wall completely before removing the back panel or attempting any repairs.
• Test Before You Guess: PRO TIP: Before installing all parts, use a digital multimeter set to "Ohms" or "Continuity" to test the old sensors and element. A lack of continuity confirms a component has failed.
• Clear the Lint: The number one cause of heating element failure is poor airflow. Take this opportunity to thoroughly vacuum the internal dryer cabinet and clean out your home's external exhaust vent.
• Take Photos of Wiring: The sensors have multiple wires of different colors. Snap a clear photo with your phone before disconnecting the spade terminals to ensure you wire the new sensors perfectly.
• Handle with Care: Avoid touching the actual heating coils with your bare fingers. Oils from your skin can create hot spots on the coil, leading to premature wire failure.
