Gas Dryer heater turns off
Model Number: lgc9000pwo Brand: Whirlpool Age: 1 - 5 years
Hello,
Dryer ignites and heats for about 3 minutes. I have tested (with ohm meter) both termostats and the thermal fuse. I also tested the bias. The bias on the large polls tests fine. On the small one, it shows resistance. But reading a previous post, this seems normal. Should I hot wire the two large wires on the internal bias to see if it stays on? Ads By Google Related Models

It only stays on for about 3 minutes at a time and the cycle thermostat mounted on the blower housing shuts it down. The gas does not constantly stay on or you could cook a turkey in there. Now if it works once and quits that is these coils replace them if they are intermittant. Feel them if they are hot as hell then they get hot and quit. This is a common problem.
