I am really in need of some help here. I have this gas dryer that wont heat. I looked on this forum and pulled it out and replaced the thermal fuse, and both thermostats, and the flame sensor. It still does not heat. I dont believe there is an element for this dryer. I know it is a 110 dryer and the power to it is just fine. I am wondering what step I should take next to get this dryer to heat for me. :mad:

Does the ignitor come on? Also do you have a meter? Tom ApplianceEducator.com

I have a gas meter, since were are in a rural area. I am not sure if the ignitor comes on? Would you have to take off the back or the front to check that out?

There are a couple ways you can check to see if the igniter comes on. One is: If you have a small inspection panel on the front of the dryer, remove it by prying outward on one of the edges, and see if the igniter glows a few seconds after you start the dryer. If there is no such panel, you can still check, if you can make the room as dark as you can. Then, see if there is a glow coming from under the machine a few seconds after it starts. If the igniter glows, then goes out a few seconds later with no flame, the solenoid coils may need to be replaced.
