Dryer drum spins normally but no heat is produced — the igniter has failed to draw sufficient current to open the gas valve and light the burner.
Clothes remain damp after a full cycle because the igniter is weak and only intermittently ignites the burner, producing inconsistent heat.
Gas hiss is audible but no flame appears; the igniter glows for over 90 seconds without igniting — a classic sign of a worn-out silicon carbide element.
The dryer starts and then stops heating partway through, caused by a degraded igniter that fails to hold the gas valve open consistently.
💡 Pro Tip: Is Your Gas Dryer Igniter the Problem?
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Dryer runs and tumbles normally but produces no heat at all
⚠️ You hear a clicking or hissing sound but the burner never lights
⚠️ Igniter glows red for more than 90 seconds without igniting the gas flame
⚠️ Multimeter test shows no continuity across the igniter terminals
Test tip: Set your multimeter to the Rx1 setting and probe both igniter terminals. A healthy igniter reads between 50–400 ohms. A reading of OL (open) or infinite resistance means the igniter has failed and must be replaced. Also visually inspect for cracks in the ceramic body — a cracked igniter will not draw enough current to open the gas valve.
