a gas model this fuse when blown will allow the dryer to run
however on an electric model this fuse will kill the dryer.
The maytag fuse mounts on the right hand side of the heater.
Note: the 2 fuses that come in the kit are rated for gas or electric dryers.
When this fuse blows the dryer will be dead.
The GE fuse mounts in the rear on the heater element pan.
When this fuse blows the dryer will not run.
Dryer duct fuses are used on various brands of dryers as a back up
they sometimes come in pairs with one mounted on the heater and another near the blower.
Bonus info:
The Kenmore hi limit( small one on left below) will kill the heater element but not kill the machine,
it mounts on top of the heater housing. The bottom limit comes with it,
always replace them both when repairing the dryer. The small one is 300f the big un is
rated for 250 f so the little one goes out you need to replace the big un cause it didn't shutdown.
