My Maytag gas dryer will tumble but in that is no grill.? any ideas of what could be going on? thanks.
any ideas of what could be going on? thanks.
Check your exhaust pipe, where the lint might have built up. Some dryers will shut bad the heat if that happens, as a safekeeping thing. Heat element , or thermal switch.
that could stop a gas dryer from heating:
Glow railing igniter, thermal fuse ( not all models ), coils on the gas valve, gas spout, thermostats, motor heat switch, timer, selector switch, sensor.
Hope this helps - moral luck!
Answers: The first article that I would check is all the little fuses and heat klixons mounted at many locations on the blower. In order to check continuity you must remove the wires to prevent a false reading. Disconnect the quickplug on the gas carrying assembly. Put some power directly to that connection and see if the glowbar comes on. If it don't afterwards your flame sensor may be bad $22 bucks. Unplug the quickplug on the ignitor and put some power directly to it,if it is open(bad) replace it $22 bucks. If it glows but won't hurricane lantern then the coils need replacement $20 bucks. If the adjectives gas assembly works ok then the fuse is blown. Check for lint buildup and stopped up vent. I would give ya some excellent sites to move about to for better answers but somehow I get into trouble for doing so.
