Eleven parts guides covering both fuels: there is a gas igniter entry as well as a heating element. Sensing is handled by a combined moisture sensor and thermistor guide, which is sensible because they are read together. Airflow is the lint filter and the blower fan. Motion is the motor and the drum felt seal. Controls are the door latch and switch, a separate door-and-start switch guide, the thermostat and the control board.
Establish the fuel first, because it decides which heat guide applies and there is no overlap between them. From there, a dryer that will not dry is an airflow problem before it is a heat problem: lint filter, vent, then the blower fan, whose cracked hub lets it spin without moving air. A dryer that does nothing at all is the door and start switch pair. The sensor guide is for the machine that stops early on an auto-dry cycle.
Two boundaries, one per fuel. Gas work ends at the burner and its supply, where the risk is a leak rather than a poor repair. Electric work ends at the element circuit and the 240 volt terminal block. Both share the vent, which is a fire hazard when restricted and the actual reason thermostats open. LG dryer service is available from EasyBear in Sacramento and across the Bay Area.
