Always check this fuse first.
March 26, 2020

I only needed one of the two fuses that were sent, but I guess sending two as a "kit" addresses many model #s, and good to have at least one of them work in an application. Techs should always check for continuity between the terminals on this fuse first before considering the heating element is defective. It could save you a bundle and a lot of time.
