Robert for Model Number LQR7646JQ0

Answer Robert, You'll need to remove the filter, raise the top and remove the front panel, so you can check the belt 341241 for a damaged spot, and the rear drum rollers 349241T for a flat spot, or missing rubber surface. Also check and tighten the drum baffle screws. 

Nor for Model Number MGDC400VW0

Answer Hello Nor. 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 

Ali for Model Number 3XLER5435HQ0

Answer Hello Ali. If the unit is humming, but will not start, try opening the door and taping the switch shut. Then press the start button and use your foot and turn the drum and see if the unit starts to run. If so, you will need to replace the dryer motor W10416572, it is bad. 

Problems for Model Number ggq9800pw1 whirlpool silver gas dryer

Answer Hello, I think I would replace that line. It's a strange situation as there is so little pressure from the gas supply, but if it makes the same noise when you blow through it, it needs to be replaced. 

Ursula C

Answer Ursula, Apparently you have a Gas dryer ? Yes, you will want to unplug the power cord or turn power off to the machine before you start to repair the dryer. As long as you're careful and don't damage the igniter, you should not have to "light a pilot or something" if your dryer is less than 30 or 40 years old. Most manufacturers went to an electronic or pilotless ignition system back in the 1970's, so you should be fine. Thanks and Good Luck
