The flame periodically came on for 1 second.
Since there were no troubleshooting steps, I had to start replacing the items according to the list that showed the parts that have fixed the problem for others. I ordered one at a time until I got the part that fixed the problem. I went through 4 parts before I replaced the gas solenoids which is what fixed the problem. By the time I was done, I could disassemble that dry in about 5 minutes or less.

Needed to vent the dryer to the left side
The kit turned out to be missing a 7.40" 4" diameter vent that was needed so ending having to get my plumber to use what was there with a "cut and paste" job - took him over an hour. He did say that had the right piece been there, it would have been easy.

Dryer Quit Heating Up..
Probably could have went faster but wasn't sure on how it would go. Overall not to bad. I wish the manufacturing companies would include the breakdown of the applicances like they use to,that would have helped alot. On the front panel there are 2 clips that you have to pay a lot of attention to. Otherwise you will break them off. . Gaining access to the igniter clip was somewhat of a chore but if you go slow it goes pretty good.

Initially confused by instructions provided in that it stated to loosen a brass coupler. Disconnected power. Removed front bottom panel. Disconnected both leads to ingiter. Removed the 2 screws holding igniter bracket in place. Carefully slid igniter and bracket forward and removed from dryer. Removed screw holding ingiter and replaced with new. Reinstalled in reverse.

Washer overflowed
Once I watched a YouTube video showing me how to do the job I ordered the part from you. Am so impressed with your fast shipping and best prices via the Internet. Thank you SO much! The water level switch was easy to install, it ws getting the cover on the washer back on that was hard for me since I am 68 yrs old and have a bad knee. Its why it took me two hours to do what most people could do in 20 minutes.

The dryer does not heat
I just knew it had to be the heat sensor unable to activate the actual ignition. I following the directions and video for the installation of the heat sensor #PS344761. It went very smoothly. Upon completion of the installation, the click, then the flame roared to life and I felt like a real do-it-selfer!! This was short lived. The wetness of the clothes had no effect. Something I did not do and I certainly know better was to check and see what was taking place before I replaced the "damaged" sensor. No, I was just so sure there was no need of that. You say, put the old back in and watch what happens....I recycled the old one immediately. Sigh! We have had two weeks of rain and I'm really tired of damp clothes everywhere. I will read other alternatives and report back. DClark, TX

No heat, therefore the clothes didn't dry.
I read some of the repairs of other people and this best described my situation. I ordered the Radiant Flame Sensor and followed the step by step instructions in the video for the repair, which by the way was excellent. It couldn't have been easier. My most difficult part of the repair was moving my dryer out of the laundry closet.

Dryer wont heat up
Viewed your video on line VERY HELPFUL, problem is the igniter will not stay on long enough to heat up. I just went back on your site and ordered a Thermal Fuse and a Cycling Thermostat for the machine but think it may be to old of a machine to keep trying to repair.

I feel like I have a new dryer now. I replace 3 of the 4 main components using parts select. Not only did they ship next day, but the tutorial videos with Steven were right on the money and self explanative.

running not drying clothes
It took me nearly 3 hrs. but I don't do this for a living. Your instruction video was most helpful, madeit easy to know what to do & how to repair dryer. Part Select is top on my list. The site is easy to use & tells you what to replace based on the problem you are experiencing. The instinctual video are the best in the BUZ! Many thanks for making difficult repair much easier.

Dryer worked but did not heat
Followed troubleshooting steps. Checked thermal fuse (shorted)- OK. Checked igniter (about 70 ohms) - OK. checked flame sensor - (open) BAD (should read shorted). This part is normally shorted then opens when the igniter gets hot causing it to open and thus turns on the gas flow. An open flame sensor does not permit the igniter to turn on.
