We have an admiral gas dryer ADG7000AWW that will not heat, I have read thru some previous posted but I am not sure if the tips are the same for our dryer. We tried bypassing what we think is the thermal fuse to see if that was the problem but same results. We have also taken the front off and cleaned the whole thing out, lots of lint everywhere. We did not realize the vent house had come off the back and I think that is why there was so much lint. Also we checked it on both timed dry and auto dry, neither setting gets heat. Any suggestions?

You have to have a simple multimeter to perform the troubleshooting. Let us know when you ready and we'll guide you through the tests.

Hi Gene. I noticed your in Orange County. I am a fireman in OC but live in Illinois. I am trying to help my 17 yo son figure out why the dryer wont heat. This over the phone. He has my dig. multi meter and I can talk him through the troubleshooting, but we cant figure out over the phone how to get to the ignitor and other parts. The last dryer I worked on had a kick panel on the front bottom of the dryer. This admiral ADG7000AWW apparently does not. Could you please tell me how to get into the dryer to check the electricals. Thankyou Lloyd

Hi Lloyd,

Remove the top cover by using a plastic putty knife to depress the locking clip between the top cover and front panel. Lift the top cover.

Draw a picture on how the wires are connected to the door switch and remove the wires from the door switch.

Remove two screws, one on each side, from the back flange of the front panel.

Tip front panel back and remove.
