DG110 Maytag Dryer - Instructions

MOved all my wifes stuff, disasembled the dryer based one the instructions I found on Google. Located the worn out parts. Reassembled the unit with the new parts, which were an exact match, immagin that. Hooked the power back up. (Note: Safty First allways disconect the power source first. And it is recommended to give the unit and the vent system a through cleaning when you have it disasembled.) Gave trhe unit a quick smoke test. Job complete, wife almost happy,(Question ? if it was that simple to fix the Dryer why did you wait so long. Life is good once again.

Remove lower bottom cover (two screws on bottom) with screw driver. Remove old radiant flame sensor from left side of tube with ignior by using socket wretch. Remove wires with needle nose pliers. Put new part in: put wires back on, insert part's lower tab into the tube ( there is a small slot) use socket wrench to tighten screw at top. Put bottom front panel back on and screw back in.

I had to do the repair twice. When they say the igniter is brittle they were not kidding. I had it in place but was trying to reposition it and it came off and hit the tin cylinder and shattered into a million pieces. I had to reorder the part, it came the next day so that was great. This time I made sure it was seated properly when it was tighten. This repair only took a few minutes to do.

Received the part the day after ordering. Appreciated the quick service and repair took less than a minute.

Removed front panel, bypassed door switch to allow dryer to cycle on. In the regular setting the igniter cycled OK but, no gas flow. I disconnected and sepperated the three solinoid coils (be sure to mark them the wires have to be exactly as they came apart) then, tested each coil with an ohm meter. The booster coil was open causing the problem. Replaced the booster coil dryer works fine.
