Customer Questions and Answers for Natural Gas Limiter by Whirlpool

Hello Roger. Here are a couple of things that you might want to try. The easiest test to do for the condition you discribed is to remove and clear the exhaust vent. It may be restricted with excess lint which restricts the discharge of air. This condition will cause the dryers burner to shutoff do to overheating. If the dryer will run normally with the vent removed, either clearing the vent tube and checking the flapper door on the vent hood should correct the problem. Another place to check is the fan blower cage. Make sure it is clear of lint and debris. If everything is clear then it sounds like the coils need to be replaced. The part number for the coil kit for your model is 279834. Hope this helps.
