Designed for use in dryers, the gas valve assembly is a part with solenoids or coils. These are used to close and open the valve that controls how much gas flows through the internal parts of the dryer. The gas valve assembly is made of strong materials but can become damaged or worn out. When this occurs, the dryer may not longer create heat during a cycle. If this happens, test the coils using a multimeter. If the reading is not within 1,000 to 2,000 ohms, the gas valve assembly should be replaced.Before starting, unplug the dryer from the wall and shut off the gas supply. Remove the lint screen from the housing and use a screwdriver to take out the screws in the housing. Disassemble the dryer to gain access to the gas valve and coils. Remove the screws from the mounting bracket to detach this part. Replace with the new component and test before use.The gas valve assembly is designed to be used with dryers by Kenmore, Maytag, and Amana. This genuine OEM part is directly sourced from the manufacturer. It is priced as a single unit.

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 Whirlpool LP gas conversion kit is an OEM replacement part responsible for allowing the conversion of a natural gas-powered dryer to operate on LP (liquid propane) gas. This kit contains the orifice, leak limiter, and an instruction sheet to guide the conversion process. Once the conversion kit is installed, it alters the fuel source of the dryer, allowing it to burn LP gas instead of natural gas. This conversion is necessary when a home or installation site lacks access to natural gas and relies on LP gas as the fuel source for heating appliances

Causes for needing an LP gas conversion kit include relocating the appliance to a home with LP gas, or preferring LP gas over natural gas for cooking efficiency or availability. The conversion process involves changing the orifices and adjusting the gas pressure to suit LP gas requirements.

Symptoms that indicate a need for conversion or issues with the current setup include:

• Improper or uneven flame on the burners
• Difficulty in lighting the burners
• Burners not operating at full power
• Gas smell indicating possible leaks or incorrect gas type
