Ken: I have an Amana gas dryer LG8519W2. There is gas to the valve but it does not reach the ignitor. The electrical checks out ok. There is power to both gas solenoids. The ignitor is functioning properly so I'm assuming the shared neutral used by the ignitor and solenoids is ok. I cleared out the gas orfice, there are no obstructions. Is there a volt ohm meter check that I can do to check the function of both solenoids? Is there something that could affect both solenoids at the same time?

If the ignitor comes on, and no gas, replace the solonoids. Tom

Tom. Thank you for your quick response. I really appreciate it. My diagnosis was the same as yours, but is it common that both solonoids would go bad at the same time? Is there a field check to find out if the solonoids are bad before I invest in two new ones? Ken
