Need help with heating element on dryer

[angrybroadhead]

I have a whirlpool dryer that had the heating element burn out yesterday. I called a local place with the part number and the better half picked it up today.

I just got a chance to look at it.

Here is the original wiring on it with the wires attached. The 2nd & 3rd pic are what they gave to my wife.

There doesn't seem to be a place for the orange wire. It is saudered to the old piece. Did I need to tell them about the other piece?

I remember the guy saying my part number now translates to ******. I didn't think anything about it at the time.

Thanks for any input.

Excuse the spelling.

clean out the vent while you have it away from the wall, a lint build up may be the reason it burned up

That is great! I posted a help needed msg then went to eat dinner with the family...hit refresh and I'm ready to work!

Thanks for info! I just got it taken off the old one and ready to reinstall!

Thank you sir for your help!
