Customer Questions and Answers for Dryer Thermal Cut-Off Kit by Whirlpool

Hello Greg. Check and see if the coils 279834 are bad on the unit. If so, the flame will work, then quit working on the unit. Also, make sure the igniter 279311 is glowing bright orange and not dull. If both of these are good, you will need to test and see if the thermal cut-off 279769 is sticking in the open position. 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
