Dryer will not get hot, everything else works.
For model number GTD42GASJ2WW
Hi Dennis, I recommend checking the igniter, heat detector and thermostats. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair!
Hi. I recently changed the igniter and timer, still no heat. With my multimeter, i checked the continuity on all fuses, wiring, heat sensor etc. Still no heat. Btw, it’s only 3yrs old and it tumbles but again no heat. Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks for your help!

Hi Luan,
Thank you for your question. If you have replaced these parts and the dryer is still not heating, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the thermostats and the burner assembly. We hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day.

Dryer was purchased in 5/2020 and dryer will not heat up. Changed the igniter with new one and now dryer will not start at all.

Hello Johnnie, Thank you for your inquiry. We have researched the model you have provided and we would recommend checking the following parts to fix your issue: the heat sensor, the high limit thermostat, the fuse, the door switch, and the safety thermostat. You can test the parts with a multimeter. Good luck with your repair.
Dryer will not work. When you close the door, it will start and stop in the middle of drying. Open the door and the light will come on. When you close and hold the door it will start. Now it’s not working at all, but the light will come on when opened. What could be the problem?
For model number GTD42GASJ2WW
Hello Summer, thank you for the question. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest you replace the door switch, part number PS12722948, to resolve the issue. We hope this information helps!

When I hit the start button it goes on & immediately stops. The dryer gets hot but it does not tumble.
For model number GTD42GASJ2WW
Hello Deborah, thank you for contacting us. Based on our research, the issue is most probably with the drive belt. We would suggest replacing the drive belt, part number PS16542496, to solve the problem. It attaches to the motor pulley and spins the drum as the motor rotates. We hope that helps!
Removed the front Dryer panel. Left drum in place and lifted it up slightly to get access to motor drive. Slipped belt in place and put panel back on. This was a first attempt ever at fixing an appliance and it was no big deal.
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.
I had to take most of the dryer apart because there is no rear access to the motor. It turned out to be easy to dissasembel the dryer. The only problem that I had was that I could not figure out how to route the belt around the motor and the idol pullies. I could not find anywhere that gave instructions on how to properly tension the belt. I finally figured out that the idoler pulley needs to be locked in place on the right side of the engie mount. Then the belt needs to be routed over idoler pulley and under the motor pulley. Finally release the idoler pully from the locked postion to put tension on the belt. It really turned out to be pretty easy.
