The Thermostat Clip is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It plays an important supporting role by securely fastening the thermostat sensor inside the wash chamber. 

Symptoms of a faulty Thermostat Clip can include:

• Fluctuating or inconsistent water temperatures between cycles 
• Inability to properly detect temperature for desired heat levels
• Longer cycle times needed for reaching required temperatures
• Strange sounds or condensation around thermostat connection

Causes could arise from typical wear and tear stresses weakening plastic retaining clips. Exposure to harsh detergents may also erode clip material integrity over time.

This OEM replacement part is compatible with KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Kenmore, and select Hotpoint and Roper dishwasher models as well. 

Thermostat has 1/4 inch terminals.

The High Limit Thermostat is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This safety feature is designed to prevent the dishwasher from overheating by shutting off the power if the internal temperature exceeds a certain limit. It acts as a safeguard against potential hazards, such as fires, and ensures the dishwasher operates within safe temperature ranges. 

Over time, the high limit thermostat can become defective due to normal wear or electrical issues within the dishwasher. A malfunctioning thermostat may not accurately respond to temperature changes, which can lead to overheating or the dishwasher not reaching the necessary temperature for optimal cleaning.

Symptoms of a bad High Limit Thermostat include:

• Dishwasher not starting or completing a cycle
• The dishwasher stops heating water, affecting cleaning performance
• Overheating, which could potentially damage dishes or the dishwasher itself

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
