I do object to living in a throw away world and so it was especially pleasing to be able replace the failed heater element in my Whirlpool AWZ2303 tumble drier with such ease. The guide video is not an exact match for the Whirlpool but gives you enough of a clue to get you off on the right direction.
If you have the appropriate star head screwdriver (to take the top and back off the tumble drier)and spanner (to release the heater element)you will have no difficulty doing this job. You will probably need to get the Hoover out before you start as I could not believe how much 'fluff' was inside the tumble drier workings.
Thanks again12 February 2013

It is most likely the element if every other function works correctly. This needs to be fitted by a qualified engineer. The element for your model is ES185799.
i have recently changed thermostats on whirlpool dryer awz541 but still overheating could it now be heating element

Hi Raz, you were right to change the thermostats first, they are the most likely cause of an overheating dryer. It could be the element which is damaged - perhaps an electrical fault. If you smell electrical burning, then switch off straight away and don't use - call an engineer or consider a new dryer. When it's an electrical fault like that it is dangerous for an unqualified person to mess around with it.
