Genuine Electrolux element 4055917902 is a 1700W dryer heating element, also referenced as DR-01. It is an Electrolux group part, although no specific dryer models are recorded against it. Before ordering, compare the shape, terminal layout and wattage of your old element and check its label for 4055917902 or DR-01. A different 1700W element for Hoover Apollo dryers is sold as 4055917894.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDryer running but clothes still damp?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe element heats the air that the fan pulls through the drum. If the coil breaks, the drum still turns and the timer still counts down, but the air stays cold and clothes come out as wet as they went in. A weak or partly failed element shows up as very long drying times. Before replacing it, clean the lint filter and check the exhaust is clear, because poor airflow can trip the thermal cut-out and stop heating too. A multimeter continuity test on the element will confirm whether it has failed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 4055917902\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed as DR-01\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1700W dryer heating element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck shape and terminals against the old element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1700W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing a dryer element\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the dryer from the power point before removing the back or front panel, depending on your model. Photograph the element wiring and any thermostats mounted near it. Inspect the coil supports and nearby thermal cut-outs, as an element failure can damage them. Fit the new element, reconnect the wiring as before and run a short heat cycle to check for warmth at the outlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I replace the thermostat at the same time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot always, but check it. An element that burnt out may have overheated because of a blocked vent or a faulty thermostat or cut-out. Test those parts with a multimeter, and clear the lint path, so the new element does not fail the same way.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Electrolux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551097483342,"sku":"4055917902","price":49.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/4055917902-genuine-electrolux-dryer-heating-element-1700w","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
