Would not start. Replaced rotary starter switch, got the humming sound but would not ignite. Drum would not turn. What do I need to replace now? Please show video.
For model number DBL333GB6WW

Hello Reevance, Thank you for the question. If the appliance powers on but the drum will not turn and heat will not come on, we suggest testing the Door Switch. When defective it can not tell the controls when the door is closed and its safe to start the tumble and ignite. We do not have a video for the switch sorry. When the door is closed it completes the circuit to the Gray wire on the N.O. Contact. You can temporarily jumper and tape these together to test to see if the switch is defective. We hope this helps!

Can the ignighter have resistance (217.3 ohms) and still not work? Dryer turns on, drum turns, faint propane smell, clothes don’t dry.
For model number GTD75GCSL0WS

Hi Kristin, thank you for your question. We have researched your model and found that the issue is probably with the Igniter, part number PS12342916. If that does not take care of the issue, then the problem is most likely to be related to the Inlet Control Thermostat, part number PS1766014.

The dryer drum turned ok, but the gas heat did not start.
First I found and watched three videos on how to open the dryer and replace the igniter.
Then I opened the dryer, but I did not remove the belt as suggested in the video, and then I removed the ignitor and flame detecter as the videos had shown.
I got on-line and ordered the new parts from PartsSelect in the afternoon and had them in my hands the next morning by 9:30 am.
I installed the new parts and everything worked fine again. You must be very careful with the igniter to not touch it with hands or anything else. I practiced puting in the old parts first.

Gas dryer was not getting hot and smelled like gas inside drum
Removed lower front panel and then front including door (need to remove the top to access screws.) Replaced both the ingiter and heat detector. The tricky part was getting access to the long tunnel-like bracket that houses the igniter. Washer and Dryer are in a tight cutout space in very small laundry room.
