Tumble Dryer Thermostats – Genuine & Compatible
Restore safe and reliable heating with a new tumble dryer thermostat or stat kit. When your dryer runs but produces no heat, a faulty thermostat or thermal cut-out is often to blame. At Yourspares, we stock a wide range of genuine and compatible thermostats for leading brands including Hotpoint, Indesit, Beko, Bosch, Whirlpool, Zanussi, Creda, AEG, and Miele.
Our selection includes cycling thermostats, one-shot cut-outs, and complete stat kits designed for simple DIY replacement. Genuine parts provide original manufacturer quality, while compatible thermostats offer excellent performance at a lower cost.
All our tumble dryer thermostats are backed by a price match guarantee and fast UK delivery. Whether you need a single thermostat or a full safety kit, Yourspares has the correct replacement to get your dryer heating again.

Q1. How do I know if my tumble dryer thermostat has failed?
If your dryer drum turns but doesn’t heat, the thermostat or cut-out may have tripped or failed.
Q2. What’s the difference between cycling and one-shot thermostats?
Cycling thermostats repeatedly control temperature, while one-shot cut-outs permanently trip when overheating occurs.
Q3. Are compatible thermostats reliable?
Yes—compatible thermostats are made to match OEM performance and fit listed models accurately.
Q4. Can I fit a thermostat kit myself?
Yes—most thermostat kits are plug-in or screw-fit, making them easy to install with basic tools.

Hotpoint Genuine Tumble Dryer Thermostat Kit (1 Shot/Cycling)
works as expected
replaced another replacement that only lasted a couple of years. It's a pity that I can't buy just the resettable one in singles or pairs as the fixed one never seems to fail.

Tumble Dryer Thermostat Kit (Green Spot) | Compatible Non-Genuine Replacement by Ufixt
Tumble dryer thermostat kit
No ‘Green spot’ was visible, but once I determined which way round the stats were wired and that the old ‘Blue spot’ was the 130 deg One shot stat,
combined with replacing the heating element, all now works fine on both high and gentle heat ??
