I have two thermostats on my Hovver vison hd dryer

I can see that one has failed, blackened and in half. Do I need to replace Heater and stats or just the faulty one. Is there another problem which might have caused the faulty one to blacken?

    Just to clarify my earlier answer on two thermostats. Many dryer heaters have two thermostats fitted, one will be a cycling thermostat regulating the heat and the other will be an overheat cut out. It is important to ensure that you have both types fitted if this is the case and to ensure this it may be safer to replace both together if fitted.

    Just replace the faulty thermostat. This carries a high current that will blacken and burn the thermostat if it starts to fail.
