Whirlpool WPY307173 Dryer Belt Switch Jumper Wire
Product Description
The Whirlpool WPY307173 is a simple yet essential component for some Whirlpool dryers. A wire jumper is just a short piece of wire with connectors on both ends. The manufacturer includes a belt switch in certain dryer models that senses when the dryer belt breaks or becomes slack. In order to prevent damage, this causes the dryer to turn off. Nevertheless, some Whirlpool dryers use this wire jumper in place of the belt switch. There are two advantages to this. Firstly, by doing away with the switch, it lowers production costs. Furthermore, it provides a fix for dryers whose belt switch has broken. With the WPY307173 jumper, you can fix a malfunctioning switch and get your dryer back up and running again without having to replace more intricate parts.
