The igniter is located within the burner assembly, so you will require tools to complete the repair.

First I took the front of the dryer off then located the igniter. It only required removing two screws, removing old igniter, replacing with new igniter, and replacing the two screws.. While I was replacing the igniter I took the drum out and throughly cleaned the inside. Lucky me, I found 85 cents on the floor of the dryer. I am 65yr
... Read mores old, married and mother of two. This was easy to do and sure saved money. I reccommend others try to do repairs for themselves and using PartSelect was less expensive too.
