Hi,

If you are having problems with your gas dryer not heating the most common problem is that the ignitor goes bad. Even though it glows sometimes it is still not working properly.

How old id the system?
If warrenty is over, Open or remove metal covers.
Before you start, unplug your unit.
After you removed panels or opened your unit, on one side should be the element compartment. At the bottom of compartment, is two wires. remove and then take a Ohm meter and check the element. That ok you won't hurt yourself, because you unplugged it.
If you have a reading or the needle moves... your element is fine.
That would mean something else is wrong.. Follow the plug into the unit..
Are the wires burnt, Has one falling off... It needs replacing
Sometime the circuit breaker trips... only half.. so go and reset your breaker and put the dryer back together

This may be a problem with your moisture sensor or the control that read the sensor. If it is under warranty have Samsung fix it for free. Make sure the cycle settings are correct before tinkering. First make sure the electronics are not too dusty. You could blow them off or vacuum them. Dirt particles can conduct electricity and make it read wrong. Next check the electrical connection for the moisture sensor. See if its location is in the manual. If it doesn't work after some tinkering asked the service for the dryer about possibly replacing the sensor but first try hard to get it to work.

try timed dry cycle instead of the auto-sensing setting. In your drum if you have auto dry such as less dry normal dry and more dry, There is a sensor sometimes in the drum and sometimes in the exhaust right after the blower. If in the drum then your clothes brush by this and if moisture is sensed then it keeps on drying. With your rack the clothes can't touch the sensor so it tells your dial to turn and that items are dry which in fact are not. Try this and see how it does.

Before changing the element make sure you have both power legs. Usually in that time frame the manufacturer will send out a repair man for free under warranty

Two wires are 120v to separate legs(Two 120volt mains coming in to the house) One is a common wire and the other is a ground. The plug on the dryer may have symbols or check your manual for installation instructions.

Is there any power at all lights on the screen
no then check overload breaker in the basement or where ever it is.
If it has power check to make sure the door switch has a good contact.
If the breaker is good but no power check where the cord conects on the inside of the dryer for loose screws. Careful to unplug it first.

Not easily or efficiently. Too many components to swap out. The right person with enough time, knowledge and finances might pull it off but you would be better to spend your money on a new dryer.

You can use the drying rack for anything you do not want tumbled inside the dryer. The biggest item is usually sneakers.

vent it out at the closestoutside wall point
