I replaced the igniter kit. Still no heat. Runs through the cycle but doesn’t get hot.
What is the next logical move?
For model number MGDC215EW1
Hello John, thank you for reaching out. We have researched the model and would suggest checking the flame sensor, part number PS11741429. This part senses heat from the igniter to monitor if it is hot enough to ignite the gas. Once the igniter is hot enough, it will open the valve and allow gas to flow. You may test the flame sensor for continuity using a multimeter to verify the fault. Good luck with the repair!

Dryer wouldn't turn on b/c door switch broken
It was simple once I figured out what to do:). I removed the 2 screws on the top of the dryer... they were a bit hard to find. Even with the other descriptions on this site. I was removing things I didn't need to. The 2 screws you need to remove are under the LINT COLLECTOR LID. Remove those 2 screws & lift the lid... it will be tigh

t at first. the front of the lid has 2 "catches" in the corners.
The hardest part was getting the door switch assembly to "unplug". We pried it off -- eventually -- & then simply plugged in the new one.
Saved me LOTS of money & was worth the 30 minutes - 1 hour of work.
As I said previously, once you realize how to get the lid up & manage to pry off the plug, that's all there is to it -- easy!
Save yourself time & money & do it yourself!
