XPARTCO DC32-00007A Dryer Thermistor
Blower-housing temperature sensor for select Samsung-built dryers.
Product Overview
The XPARTCO DC32-00007A Dryer Thermistor is a quality aftermarket replacement temperature sensor used on compatible dryers. It mounts on the blower housing and monitors exhaust-air temperature so the electronic control can regulate heat during the drying cycle.
This NTC-style thermistor is commonly specified at approximately 10 kΩ at 77°F (25°C); resistance decreases as the sensor temperature rises.
Quick Answer
DC32-00007A is a dryer thermistor temperature sensor rated approximately 10K ohms at 77°F (25°C). It can help correct temperature-sensing faults such as tS/t5-type errors, overheating, underheating, or abnormal cycle behavior when the original thermistor is defective.
Common Problems This Part May Fix
- Dryer displays a thermistor or temperature-sensor error
- Dryer runs too hot
- Dryer does not heat correctly
- Dryer stops shortly after starting
- Drying temperature is inconsistent
- Sensor resistance is out of specification

Installation & Diagnostic Notes
- Disconnect dryer power before service.
- Access the blower housing and disconnect the original thermistor.
- Compare the connector and mounting points before installation.
- When testing resistance, allow the sensor to stabilize near room temperature; a good sensor should be approximately 10 kΩ at 77°F (25°C).
- Warm the sensor carefully while monitoring resistance; resistance should decrease as temperature rises.
- Inspect wiring, connectors, lint filter, blower path, and exhaust vent if temperature faults continue.
Do not diagnose by continuity alone. A thermistor is a variable-resistance sensor and should be tested in ohms against temperature.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should DC32-00007A read at room temperature?
Approximately 10 kΩ at 77°F (25°C). The exact reading changes with temperature.
Does resistance go up or down when the thermistor gets hotter?
Resistance decreases as temperature rises.
Where is this sensor installed?
On compatible dryers it mounts on the blower housing where it senses air temperature.
Is this Genuine Samsung OEM?
No. This is a quality XPARTCO aftermarket replacement part.
