The igniter uses heat to ignite the gas in the burner assembly. If the igniter is not working, the gas will not ignite, preventing the dryer from heating. To determine if the igniter has burned out, use a multimeter to test the igniter for continuity. If the igniter does not have continuity, replace it
If you have an electric or gas dryer that tumbles but won’t heat, check the thermal fuse for continuity. If the thermal fuse checks out, move on to the radiant sensor if you have a gas dryer. It monitors the igniter and powers up the gas valve coils when the igniter reaches peak temperature. A bum sensor will stop the whole show
When the dryer is calling for heat, the igniter will begin to glow as it heats up. When maximum temperature is reached, the gas valve will open and the gas will be ignited. How to test a dryer’s ignitor with a multi-meter: Disconnect your dryer from the power source as well as the gas source prior to starting
The igniter’s heat signals the gas valve to open, and the burner flame keeps the gas valve on. A broken sensor will result in a valve that won’t open or an igniter that won’t glow. If it’s the igniter that isn’t getting its cue from the sensor, unplug the dryer and use your multi-meter to check the sensor for continuity

Feb 07, 2022 Similar to the thermal fuse, the gas dryer igniter may break or burn out. If it’s not glowing, it will not ignite the gas in the burner. Heating Elements can burn out over time, leaving you with a dryer that won’t heat. In a gas dryer, check to ensure gas valve coils are powering up. For electric, test the heater element for continuity
When the igniter reaches a high enough temperature, these coils (Coil Valve, Dryer Gas Valve Coil Kit, Dryer Valve Coil Kit, Gas Valve Solenoid) work together to open the gas valve and allow the gas to enter the burner. This is a safety mechanism to ensure that there are no unsafe buildups of gas inside your appliance
Nov 11, 2019 If you notice that your dryer’s igniter is failing to receive the signal from the sensor, unplug your dryer and use a multi-meter to check the sensor for continuity. If your igniter is always aglow, but the gas valve won’t open, the sensor is malfunctioning and will need to be completely replaced
By Frigidaire. Flat Norton style oven igniter. Length - 3.72 inches. Replaces any flat oven igniter with a 3.2 to 3.6 amperage draw (excluding blue ceramic igniters)
The parts for each type of dryer are basically the same -- it just comes down to whether a gas flame or electrical element heats the air. The air is drawn into your appliance via a blower wheel, and after it’s heated in either way, it circulates through a drum that tumbles your clothes thanks to a belt-driven motor
Dryer gas burner valve solenoid set. If the dryer does not heat or heats intermittently the coils could be defective. To test, watch the burner and if the igniter glows for a while and then shuts off without the gas igniting, it usually means one of these coils is bad. OEM Part

LG dryer DLE7177RM . Machine runs but no heat. Replaced Thermal Fuse (was bad) and Hi limit thermostat (was told this would be a good idea). ... They replaced the igniter twice, but after the 3rd time it stopped working we replaced the dryer. Now the new one wont heat either, and we did have a few muggy days a couple weeks ago. Can heat and
