Can you tell me what needs to be done. Thank you, Brian:confused:

What was the original problem? Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for MAYTAG LDG8410AAE Dryer - Gas \| AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.

Any other ideas? I also replaced the blower wheel # WPL303836 because it was rattleing and the ring-retainer #WPL9703438. Could one of the sensors in the blower chamber affect the gas from igniting? Thank you for responding, Brian
