Maytag Dryer LDG7500AAE Takes too long to dry

The Dryer Gas Valve Coil Kit is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers, as well as Kenmore and Samsung dryers. It is a set of coils that control the flow of gas fuel to the burner. The gas valve regulates the precise amount of gas needed to properly combust and generate heat for drying clothes. 

Causes of a bad gas valve coil can be wear and tear from regular use, lime or mineral buildup on the coils over time, or physical damage to the coils.

Symptoms of a bad gas valve coil kit include:

• Inconsistent or incomplete drying  
• Slow or intermittent drying
• Burning smell from the gas dryer
• Improper burner ignition or non-ignition

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Blower Wheel Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers, designed to circulate air through the drum and out the vent. This part is responsible for the movement of hot air across the clothes to evaporate moisture so that clothes dry evenly and quickly.  

Causes of a bad Blower Wheel Assembly can include debris buildup leading to wear and tear on the fins or a damaged hub disconnecting the wheel from the motor shaft. 

Symptoms of a bad Blower Wheel Assembly include:

• Unusual noises when the dryer is running.
• Clothes taking longer to dry or not drying fully.
• The dryer overheating due to restricted airflow.
• A noticeable decrease in the exhaust.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Flame Sensor is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool gas dryers. This component plays a critical safety role by monitoring the presence of the gas burner flame during the drying cycle.

Causes of needing to replace the flame sensor can include normal wear and tear over extended use, exposure to high temperatures or corrosion, or physical damage to the sensor itself.

Symptoms that may indicate a faulty flame sensor include:

• The dryer not heating or producing heat properly
• Error codes related to the gas system or ignition failure
• The dryer shutting off unexpectedly during cycles

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore gas dryer models. 

The Lint Filter is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It is designed to capture lint and debris that are produced during the drying cycle, preventing them from entering the dryer’s internal components and reducing the risk of fire hazards. This filter measures approximately 13 inches wide by 9 inches high. 

Over time, the lint filter can become clogged with lint, get damaged, or develop holes that reduce its effectiveness. Regular cleaning is necessary to maintain its performance, but eventually, it may need replacement to ensure optimal dryer operation.

Symptoms of a bad lint filter include:

• Reduced drying efficiency
• Longer drying times
• Excessive lint on clothing
• Visible damage or holes in the filter

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Whirlpool High Limit Thermostat is an OEM component for Whirlpool dryers, designed to prevent the dryer from overheating by shutting off the heat when the dryer reaches a certain temperature. This safety mechanism is crucial for preventing fires and maintaining the longevity of your dryer.

Symptoms of a bad High Limit Thermostat include:

• Clothes taking longer than usual to dry
• Dryer not producing any heat
• Overheating of the dryer exterior

These issues may arise due to a malfunctioning thermostat, which can occur from a buildup of lint and debris blocking proper airflow, a faulty heating element that causes the dryer to overheat, or wear and tear over time.

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models, ensuring a wide range of applicability and reliability for maintaining your dryer's performance.

The Retaining Clip is an OEM part for Whirlpool stand mixers. This small but essential part ensures the stability and secure fitting of various mixer components, contributing significantly to the appliance's overall performance and durability. Its primary role is to hold parts in place, preventing movement that could lead to wear or malfunction during operation.

Stand mixers are subjected to a variety of stresses, particularly when mixing thick doughs or other dense mixtures. The retaining clip's integrity is vital in these situations, as it helps to maintain the correct alignment and functioning of the mixer's moving parts. 

Symptoms of a bad Retaining Clip in a stand mixer include:

• Components such as beaters or attachments becoming loose or detaching during use.
• Unusual vibration or noise 
• Difficulty in attaching or detaching mixer attachments  

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Clamp is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This clamp ensures tight and secure connections within the dryer, particularly in securing ducts and vents that are essential for proper airflow and operation. 

Clamps may need replacement due to loss of tension, corrosion, or damage from regular use. A compromised clamp can lead to operational issues such as prolonged drying times or excessive noise, resulting from loose parts or improper ventilation.

Symptoms of a bad Clamp include:

• Loose or detached vents or hoses, leading to inefficient dryer operation.
• Increased drying times, as a result of compromised airflow from unsecured ducts.
• Unusual vibrations or noise, indicating that internal components may not be securely fastened.

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

The Flat Style Dryer Igniter is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This essential component is responsible for igniting the gas in the burner, allowing the dryer to heat up and effectively dry your clothes. The igniter heats up to a high temperature to ignite the gas, starting the heating process necessary for drying.

Causes of a bad dryer igniter include wear over time due to repeated heating cycles, electrical failures that prevent the igniter from heating, and physical damage which can cause the igniter to break or malfunction.

Symptoms of a bad dryer igniter include:

• Dryer not heating up despite being turned on
• Gas smell indicating the gas is not being ignited
• No visible glow from the igniter area when the dryer is activated

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Cycling Thermostat is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This thermostat regulates the temperature inside the dryer by cycling the heating element on and off to maintain a consistent temperature.  .

Causes of a bad cycling thermostat can include wear and tear over time, electrical faults, or damage due to overheating. 

Symptoms of a bad Cycling Thermostat include:

• Clothes taking too long to dry
• The dryer not heating at all
• The dryer overheating
• Erratic or inconsistent drying temperatures

• Excess lint visible behind and around the felt seal

This genuine Whirlpool OEM replacement part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This thermostat is a temperature-sensitive switch used in the appliance's heating circuit. It opens and closes at a specific temperature to regulate or limit heat, helping maintain correct operation and protect components from damage due to overheating.

• Monitors temperature and switches the heating circuit on/off at its preset trip point
• Helps prevent overheating and heat-related component damage
• Failure symptoms can include no heat or underheating, overheating or burnt odors, or heat that won't shut off
• May cause intermittent heating or frequent cycling as the unit warms and cools

• Disconnect power and allow the appliance to cool completely; shut off gas supply if applicable
• Access the thermostat, note/photograph wire positions, and transfer wires one at a time to the new part
• Mount securely against the proper surface/bracket so the sensor has good contact
• Restore power and test operation; if issues persist, diagnose related heating components per the service manual
