Dryer was working fine then started to get a buzzing noise from the top right rear of the dryer now it wont heat up when running
David J. for Model Number WGD4800XQ0
Answer Hello David. Check all wiring on the unit and make sure you are getting power out of the timer. If not, and the timer motor is making the buzzing sound, you will need to order and replace the timer on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html
I get no heat - checked HSI and it ohmed out at 65 ohms. Checked and don't have voltage to HSI. What do I check next?
Tim for Model Number MGDC200XW - Maytag
Answer Hello Tim,
You will want to check continuity of the thermal fuses and thermostats. If there is no continuity then the fuse is bad and needs to be replaced.

Whirlpool dryer
No heat
Changed ignitor
Doesnt even try to heat
Paul for Model Number lgr8620pg0
Answer Hello Paul. You will need to test the thermostats and the flame sensor and make sure they are good. They should read closed for continuity. Also, check the igniter and make sure it is getting hot enough to light the gas. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter for the testing procedures. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

My dryer heats up at first and then quits heating. I replaced two parts thrmst-fix wpl & fuse-thermostat. No change. Put on a AP3132867. No change. It gets hot then quits.

Answer Hello Darrell,
You need to replace the coils 279834 on the safety valve and it will operate normally.

My gas dryer wont heat up. I checked the thermal fuses AP3176214 and the Cycling Thermostat AP3131939. The igniter glows but doesn't flame and then the glow goes away, while the dryer continues to run.
Josh for Model Number LGR6636PW1
Answer Hello Josh,
You either have a bad ignitor 338906 or a bad coil 279834 on the safety valve. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html The resistance on one will read 500 to 700 ohms. The other coil which has two windings will read 500 to 700 on one and the other 1200 to 1700 ohms. There is no good test for the ignitor.

I have power to the dryer the light works timer works. Replaced the on off switch it still wont start.
Kevin for Model Number MGD5600TQ0
Answer Hello Kevin. You will need to test the door switch 3406107 and the high limit W10423382. Both should read closed for continuity. The door switch will only read closed with the lever pressed in. If either is open, you will need to replace that part. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Loger 50 for Model Number wgd5300vwo
Answer Hello Loger 50. You will need to test the thermal fuses W10480709 and the flame sensor 338906 and make sure they are good. They should read closed for continuity. Also, check the igniter 279311 and make sure it is getting hot enough to light the gas. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter for the testing procedures.
