This gas dryer ignition coil set comes with two ignition coils: one three-terminal boost/hold coil, and one two-terminal secondary coil. If there is no heat or your drying time is getting longer, the coils may be bad and will need to be replaced. Once the coils go bad they do not hold the gas valve open properly. Usually only one of them burns out but you should replace them as a set. Both must be operational for the gas valve to open. This is a genuine OEM part. Please remember to disconnect the power to your dryer before starting the repair.

The front drum glide kit is a genuine OEM part. Please remember to disconnect the power to the dryer before starting your repair.

Please remember to disconnect power to your dryer before starting your repair.
