Review on GAS DRYER REPAIR KIT - COMPLETE WITH 279311 IGNITOR, 279834 GAS COILS, AND 338906 FLAME SENSOR by James Jenkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Inexpensive, covers most common failures with no heat

When my Whirlpool LG7681XSW3 dryer stopped heating I did what most people do - I asked online. It turns out there are a number of components that can cause this problem if they fail and three of them are included in this kit. In my case, the problem turned out to be a faulty gas coil. Since the igniter and flame sensor were the same age, it made sense to swap them out while I was disassembling the dryer. All elements fit and work without problems. For less than $30 and less than an hour of my time, my dryer will have three fewer failure points for the foreseeable future.
