I then applied AC directly to the coils: the two terminal coil ""clanked" and I interpreted that as the coil... Read more

I was expecting OL (open line). The new one read 273 ohms so I put it in. Dryer works now. The install video’s are old. It was much easier than the video’s showed.

Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You Gas smell in the dryer after a cycle completed no smell outside the dryer (until i opened the door!)   Matthew M. • Mcfarland , WI • April 25, 2016

Frigidaire Gallery gas dryer from maybe 15 years ago. Based on the fact the the smell was only in the dryer, I concluded it must be the gas valve failing to completely seal when closed. After looking at the insides again, I suppose it is possible that it was a connection near the burner, but that stuff had remained untouched for 10 years so I still think I made a good assumption. I got a new ignitor as well since I was in there, and compared to the valve, it was cheap! I thought I could get in... Read more
