Thank you very much for making this video and helping us learn how to repair our own dryers . Thank you again,Have a bless day

Great video. All the parts he tested are most of the normal 5 or 6 parts that typically break on almost all makes and models of a standard gas dryer. Take note of the igniter turning white hot. They will sometimes still glow when they are actually broken. The white hot glow as opposed to a lesser reddish glow is necessary for the igniter to complete the cycle in order for the gas valve to open.

Yeah, don’t do what did and disassemble the entire think, test those sensors first

Helpful additional tips besides the one below: 1.You will need something to hold open/support that top lid while it is up. 2.Be careful of sharp edges on all of the metal panels. I cut myself a couple of times. 3. By moving the dryer around with a ridge copper connector like this one you are taking a chance of disrupting the gas connection which could cause a gas leak. I suggest you at least try to tighten the connections before putting back in place. The best scenario is to have a modern flexible gas connector. 4.

Thanks for the full diagnostic, now I know how to get at my felt seal! I see that your dry has black/carbon on the hot air supply grill. Seems odd, our machine is about a year old and I was wondering about it. I don't know what tugged my felt out but it didn't tear so I can remount it.

Thank you for this video. So the only way to test the part that you replaced is to do the bypass? It can't be tested with the multi meter?

What do you do if everything has continuity? Still no glow or heat. Same dryer as the one in the video.

@efd

hmmm, if you 100% have gas and power, then i would test the igniter. If its good, it could be an issue with the gas valve.

great video the only thing u did not do that u should do next time is open the piece where blower motor sits in especially if u already took lint screen screws out there are 4 more screws and in that metal duct its usally full of dirt lint and sand witch can cause over heating because blower wont pull out air this will also cause thermal fuse to blow How do I know I did the same thing and blew new fuse when i opened up duct it was loaded with heavy dirt and blower blades were also full of dirt Thanks again great video

MY dryer has a little blue disc in the wire loom leading to gas solinoid what is it and how to test it.

@efd

Жыл бұрын

Without seeing it, I’m not sure. My guess is it’s a gas valve coil.

My dryer only heats on the timer setting. On auto the flame never turns on. Do you think it's the same sensors?

@efd

That sounds like the sensor in the dryer, when you look in there are 2 metal strips. Clean those, if they have a build up of gunk on them, it won’t read the moisture

That is my dryer.. When tested the flame comes on but when the clothes are put into the dryer then the flame won't come on consistently.

Mine has fire on for about 5 minutes, than fire shut off completely. So the problem is on the coils ? Thanks

It could be one of the sensors when it gets hot, best to test them all.

I'm having an issue with my Maytag but the igniter is working but won't fire up. I glows for 30 seconds then faded but the gas won't kick. It's not a supply problem. What could it be?

@efd

Have you tested the sensors? Something is telling the dryer to not release the gas.

Is it normal for it to smoke after changing the heating element?

I don’t think I would. The thermo couple is pretty important.

FYI Buy A Flashlight. SO you and the Viewing Audience can SEE👀

Jesus Christ, all you had to do is take the back panel off to test these elements! Don't follow these instructions folks, unless you're just genuinely curious on how your dryer works as a whole, and you have a lot of free time.
