Kenmore Elite Dryer Igniter
Genuine Lg part
By: Lg
Part Number: 5318EL3001A
The Dryer Ignitor is an OEM part for LG dryers. It is crucial for the ignition process in gas dryers, responsible for lighting the gas burner that provides heat for drying clothes. This ignitor must heat up to a high temperature to ignite the gas, and its proper function is essential for the dryer to operate safely and efficiently.
Symptoms of a bad Dryer Ignitor include:
- The dryer not heating up, even though all other functions are working correctly.
- The gas valve opening but no flame being produced, indicating the ignitor isn't reaching the necessary temperature.
- Intermittent heating, where the dryer sometimes produces heat and other times does not.
Causes of a bad dryer ignitor can include thermal fuse issues, a broken or malfunctioning ignitor due to wear and tear, or electrical problems affecting power delivery to the ignitor.
This OEM LG part is also compatible with Kenmore models.
