Christopher P Los Angeles , CA October 04, 2014 Appliance: Maytag Stacked Laundry- Gas LSG7806AAE Maytag gas dryer was not heating Did some dryer repair research (dryer not heating) on the internet. Bought an ohm meter, opened up the dryer and tested the cut-off-T, high limit thermostat, dryer igniter, flame sensor, cycling thermostat for continuity. The igniter was bad, the other parts tested ok. Went online to AppliancePartsPros.com searched for a new igniter for my specific dryer model, found the right replacement igniter and watched the video on how to replace the igniter. Because my dryer is old (15+ years) and I prefer not to experience the hassle of replacing failing parts every year so I purchased the new igniter and several additional parts (and the parts are inexpensive). Installed all of the new parts as shown on the repair videos on AppliancePartsPros.com and the dryer is now heating up as designed. Thank you AppliancePartsPros.com.

Lucas H Harmony , PA September 07, 2018 Appliance: Maytag Electric Dryer LDE313 The drum wouldn't start turning and either made a buzzing noise or no noise at all when the start button was pressed I replaced the motor and the cutoff fuse. The videos on this site are extremely helpful and easy to follow. The only update needed to the motor drive video is the updated wire terminals on the new motor. I easily found the instructions online though. I also realized when putting the belt back on at the end, it is far easier to remove the spring and thread the belt through, then pull the wheel pulley down and attach the spring.
