If the problem you are having is that your Whirlpool 29
inch gas dryer is not heating, you will need to
know what parts are connected to the heating circuit in
order to be able to find out what part is the one that
you will need to replace to get the dryer heating again
Let explain how the electricity flows through the
heating circuit Electricity starts at the
wall outlet and flows through the power cord
-
From the cord it flows to
the timer
-
From the timer it flows to the
Hi-limit thermostat
-
From the Hi-limit thermostat it flows to
the operating thermostat
-
From the operating thermostat it
flows to the thermal fuse
-
From the thermal fuse it flows to
the flame sensor
-
From the flame sensor it flows to
the igniter
-
From the igniter it flows to the gas
valve coils
-
From the gas valve coils it flows to
the door switch
-
From the door switch it flow through
the cord back to the wall outlet
If any of the parts mentioned above
fails, the dryer will run, but it won't heat.
A lot of dryer owners when the dryer
stops heating, right away they assume that the problem is
the gas valve or the timer
They replace those parts and find out
that they still have the same problem.
What I am trying to tell you is that when you take a
guess, there is a big chance that you will replace a
part that is working ok and electrical parts are not
returnable, so you need to make sure that when you
replace a part in your Whirlpool gas dryer it is
because that part is bad.
If you want to see how to check &
replace each one of the parts in the heating circuit,
you could download and view all the video clips for less
than $10
