Dont have heat to dry clothes and gas is connected

change the gas coils on the gas valve by removing the 2 screws holding the bracket for the coils,remove the wire harnesses to each coil,dont worry one coil has 2 wires the other has 3 so quite hard to reverse

Hi, If you are having problems with your gas dryer not heatingthe most common problem is that the ignitor goes bad. Even though it glowssometimes it is still not working properly. if you dryer is gas check out this gas no heat tip....

if it heats for a while and then no heat you have bad gas coils,when the coils are on there way out they work until they heat up then they cut out,see if you have heat when the dryer is cold,if it is change out the gas coils

i would check my exhaust vent here, make sure you have good airflow
let it stand for a while, and start it up let run
are you getting any heat, put you hand tword the back
if you getting dry by very low heat, i would suspect you gas coils, two bullets on the top of the gas valve

Hello. I am glad you checked for lint in the filter. That could have been a problem. There are several other possible causes Since you did not state whether you had an electric dryer or a gas dryer, I will tell you what to look for in each category.

If you have an electric dryer it could be any one of these things If your dryer doesn't heat, check these:

Power from the house
Heating element
Thermal fuse
Wiring

If it is a gas dryer it could be one of these things:Igniter
Gas valve coils
Thermal fuse

how do i set this dryer to dry my clothes??? what is the right setting?? should i use the time dry setting or the more dry/less dry setting?? Clothes never dry???????????????????????????????????????????????????????

1. thermostate 2 the gas valve cylanoids the 2 black things on top gas valve can be bad will heat then stop heating 4 awhile thay drop out dont open valve watch your valve listen 4 it if comes on run heat goes off dont come back on 4 awhile 3 5 min bad valve cylonoids

This problem doesn't sound right, but you could have a bad moisture sensor.
