Cool website….I have a quick question, in the process of fixing my whirlpool drier. Does it matter which way round the wires go on the thermostats/temp sensors – there was one I’m not sure I hooked back up the right way round?

For two-terminal thermostats, no. For three-terminal and four-terminal thermostats, yes. In these cases, use the wiring diagram to determine how the wires connect.
