Fitment: LG front load electric dryers and Kenmore Elite 796-series electric dryers that use the rear-mounted round-duct heater canister (partial model list below)

Type: Aftermarket complete heater assembly built to OEM-style specs (not a Genuine LG OEM part unless stated in title)

Key Features

  • Complete Drop-In Assembly — metal housing, ceramic-insulated nickel-chromium coil, pre-wired hi-limit thermostat and thermal fuse already mounted, no loose parts to transfer

  • 240V 5400W Rating with 2-5/16 inch male terminals, restores full heat output on dual-voltage LG electric dryers

  • 3-Terminal Hi-Limit Thermostat 6931EL3001F — if your old assembly has three spade lugs at the thermostat, 5301EL1001J is the correct cross, not the 2-terminal 5301EL1001A

  • Non-Resettable Thermal Fuse 6931EL3003D built into the canister trips at overheating to protect the dryer

  • Approx Size 16-3/16 x 7-1/2 x 5 inches with 5 inch round outlet on one end and 5-3/8 x 3-3/4 inch rectangular opening on the other, matches original LG rear heater box

  • Fixes No-Heat and Low-Heat Complaints caused by open coil, blown fuse, stuck thermostat or cracked ceramic supports

  • Tool Light Install after rear panel removal, uses original mounting screws and spade connectors

What It Fixes

Replace your 5301EL1001J heater assembly if you see:

  • Drum turns but no heat at all

  • Heat for a few minutes then shuts off

  • Clothes take two or three cycles to dry

  • Thermal fuse keeps blowing after replacement

  • Multimeter shows open continuity on the old coil or fuse

  • Error codes pointing to heater or thermostat (check your model manual)

Unbolt the old canister from the blower duct, lift it out, seat the new 5301EL1001J assembly on the original gasket surface, reuse the original screws, reconnect spades exactly as photographed, then restore power and run a timed heat cycle to confirm recovery.
