Anthony C Barnegat , NJ March 17, 2015 Appliance: LG Dryer DLG5988W No heat in my lg dlg5988w dryer I first ordered a thermostat and ignitor and replaced and that did not work. I asked Appliance Parts Pros their opinion in the chat and they said it was the coils in the gas valve but you had to replace the entire valve as the coils are not sold individually. So i ordered the part and also replaced the thermistor and drum belt while i had the dryer apart anyway! And this fixed the problem! These guys are the absolute best and most helpful i have ever dealt with. This is the second time i used them as my washer broke six months ago! The self help videos with matt are worth their weight in GOLD!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Robert R Houston , TX May 04, 2015 Appliance: Model LG DLG5966G Dryer was setup for propane very dangerous when connected to natural gas dryer was exhibiting low to no heat with a very pronounced presence of a strong raw gas smell I ordered the natural gas conversion orifice with 2 day shipping, I also ordered for only maintenance reasons a new ignitor, as they are very common wear and tear item (like a spark plug on a gas engine or a glow plug on a diesel engine ). Both items came promptly and well protected . Easy install, only needed a Phillips screwdriver for entire repair. R&R top first, r&r front display panel,r&r door,r&r front panel,r&r drum (very easy), replaced ignitor and orifice. Total job took 30 min. I only wished that I would have remembered to order a new belt, just for maintenance purposes, the original still looked good a felt strong, no cracks present but this is a good time to replace.

Stephen G Las Vegas , NM September 13, 2015 Appliance: Model LG2532W We thought the ignitor was burned out we got no heat when the dryer was on Took the whole thing apart--involved many steps and disassembling the whole machine. We downloaded the pdf file. Took out the ignitor, checked its continuity and found it was still good but we installed it anyway. Then researched further and discovered there's a reset button, found it, it had been tripped, reset it and put the whole thing back together. It worked!!
