where are the two fuses and how do you replace them
For model number DBSR453EB0WW
PartSelect logo
Hi Peter, thank you for contacting us. According to our research, this comes with one fuse, a thermal fuse mounted at the back of the dryer in the left lower corner inside the cover box. Simply remove the screws of this cover box and replace the old fuse with a new one. Glad to be of help!

Heater element went out
First of all, unplug the dryer. I removed the two screws on the front of the cabinet to remove the top. I then took out the screws to remove the dial panel. Release the belt for the drum through the access hole in the rear of the dryer. Remove the front cover and pull the drum assembly out.

Remove the element disc from the rear of the housing, take note of the the wireing placement. Replace disc and reverse order of disassembly.

This job was easy for me as I am a tinkerer by nature. The hardest part of the whole job was waiting on the part, which by the way was ordered on a Sunday evening and I had the replacement in my hands and back in the dryer running by 1:00 PM on the following Tuesday!

I book marked this website and WILL refer it to others who simply need a repair, not a costly new appliance!

The dryer door handle broke off.
I pried out the remaining pieces of the handle out of the door with a screwdriver. When the new part arrived, I snapped it into place and it was done. It fit perfectly.
