338906Whirlpool maytag303377 flame sensor

25M01A white Rogers gas valve 279923
12001349 valve coil kit

Operation of burner cycle:

1 power sent to burner. 2 power travels thru first coil and igniter. As coil gets hotter it’s
resistance drops. As it glows it triggers sensor which causes 2nd coil to activate allowing
gas to flow and ignite.3 flame keeps igniter hot and resistance low flame stays on.
1 “On” power
2 first coil on and igniter glows
3 second “click” of 2nd coil and flame should ignite
FLAME SENSOR
The flame sensor is not a common problem, but it is an easy do-it-yourself gas dryer
repair. The flame sensor is located on the side of the burner box. If when you
preformed the test I described above the igniter glows red for more than a minute or
so or it doesn’t come on at all, the flame sensor may be bad. If the igniter glows red
for more than a minute or so the flame sensor is bad and it needs replacing. If the
igniter doesn’t come on at all and the igniter checks good in the test above you need
to check the flame sensor. To check the flame sensor disconnect power from the
dryer. Then remove the front off the dryer (unless you can work from the small
access door in the front). Now unplug the flame sensor and using your ohmmeter
check to see if you have continuity between the two terminals on the flame sensor. If
you do not have continuity, the sensor is bad and needs replacing

GAS VALVE
This section of this gas dryer repair guide will discuss the gas valve. If when you
preformed the test and the igniter glowed for a minute or so then cut off but the
flame didn’t light, the gas valve is bad (assuming you have gas coming to it). Most of
the time the coils are the only things bad and there is no need to change the whole
valve.
