DC32-00007A Dryer Thermistor Replacement (3-Pack) — Upgraded Part
Product description
MODEL: DC32-00007A dryer thermistor replacement kit — includes 3 identical thermistor sensors. This listing replaces commonly used OEM numbers including PS4204984, AP4201716, N3SI-K41, N3S1-K41, 2068429, PS2461163 and EAP2461163. Each kit contains three complete thermistor assemblies ready for installation.
WHAT A THERMISTOR DOES: A thermistor is a temperature-sensitive resistor. As the dryer cabinet warms, the sensor's resistance changes and the control board reads that change to switch the heating element on or off. Proper thermistor function helps maintain steady drying temperatures and prevents overheating.
COMPATIBILITY: Designed to work with a wide selection of dryer models from Samsung and Kenmore and compatible makes. Typical supported model series include Samsung DV203, DV206, DV209, DV210 and similar variants, and Kenmore series such as 4028903xxx and 4029903xxx among others. Check your dryer model number against the replacement part numbers above to confirm fit.
CONSTRUCTION & SIZE: Each thermistor features a high-grade thermoplastic housing with a precision resistor element. The unit is compact and low-profile — roughly fingertip-sized — so it fits standard sensor mounting locations inside most dryer cabinets. Contacts and wiring pigtails match usual OEM connector styles for direct swap-in replacement.
RESTORING PERFORMANCE: Symptoms of a failing thermistor include extended dry cycles, uneven drying, no heat or intermittent heat, and in some cases, safety shutoffs. Swapping a faulty thermistor for a fresh DC32-00007A typically returns normal temperature regulation and dryer efficiency.
EASY INSTALLATION: Replacement is generally straightforward. Disconnect power, open the dryer access panel, remove the old sensor, unplug the connector, and plug in the new unit. Secure the sensor in its bracket and reassemble. If you’re not familiar with appliance repair, consult a repair guide or video for your specific model.
SATISFACTION & RETURNS: Verify your model number before purchasing. If you need help confirming compatibility, provide your dryer model and serial and the seller can assist. A 30-day return/exchange policy is offered for replacement or refund if the parts are not suitable.
Pros
- Three-piece kit for multiple repairs or spares
- Wide model compatibility with common OEM numbers
- Compact, direct-replacement design
Cons
- May require basic tools and some disassembly
- Packaging can be minimal — risk of damage in transit
- Fitment still depends on exact model variant
VerdictA cost-effective three-pack replacement that restores temperature sensing for dryers showing long dry times, overheating, or no heat. The parts are compact, built with a sturdy plastic housing and a precision thermistor element, and they fit a broad range of Samsung and Kenmore machines. Install is straightforward for anyone comfortable opening a dryer and using a few basic tools. Helpful if you w

Don't assume they're dead — meter settings matter
Initially my meter showed OL and I thought they were bad. Switching the multimeter to a higher ohm range revealed ~10KΩ on all three. After that they installed and functioned normally. User error explains many low scores.

Simple fix, works like a charm
Installed one of these and my dryer runs correctly now. Followed an online guide and made sure I had enough room to take the cabinet apart. Very happy.

Arrived damaged and unusable
The part came in poor packaging and was damaged. It did not function. Should have been protected better in transit.

Handy to have spares
I only needed one but the three-pack helped identify the problem. Keeping the extras for future repairs is convenient.

Received two bad units over separate orders
Bought twice and both orders had non-functioning pieces. The second arrived physically broken in thin packaging. Waiting to see if support responds — very frustrating.
