Local hvac places said parts were no longer available and wanted between 13 & 26k for a new hvac system. I started looking into the furnace and found a bad ignitor. Looked for a replacement and no luck. Part is no longer made. Did a search based off the image and found this. Got it overnight and installed first thing. Looked identical to the original part. Once installed the furnace lit right up and we had head again.

Our older Whirlpool dryer stopped heating and would just spin and not dry clothes. Watched some videos on YouTube about which parts to check and test for the issue. Used my multimeter and tested all components and found the ignitor bad. Tested again with front of dryer open and watching during call for heat, the ignitor would not heat up and glow. Ordered this part and it looks to be OEM. Installed in about 2 minutes and test ran a call for heat. Ignitor heated up quickly and ignited gas. Clothes are drying like new again! Worked like a charm and not difficult to install if watching repair videos online to help.

Fixed my dryer

YES!! Our dryer works again! And now it dries better than before. :)We moved a few years back, and the dryer here we don't know if it is 5 yrs. or 18 yrs. old. It seemed to take longer and longer to dry the clothes on the 'energy saver' moisture sensing (low-temp) cycle. Then one day, it stopped drying. I woke up in the early a.m. and heard the dryer running and thought my wife had done some early morning laundry? But later that day she said no, that was the load she put in around 9 p.m. the night before. So basically we had a nice 8 hrs. + of dry time, no heat. The lack of heat on that sensing cycle made the timer fail to advance.That is why at first I thought it might be the "high limit thermostat" so I ordered that. Then I figured it could help to have more parts. I then ordered this igniter, and some valve coils. I remember our furnace had the igniter wear out in the past, it is a sparkly electrical element that glows bright orange and gets HOT!! to ignite the gas. I figured if I had the dryer opened up, I might as well replace the coils too, to save labor later.Well, the parts came, so I was eager (sort of) to get it fixed. The starting is the hardest part, for sure. I watched a couple videos before about gas dryer repair, unplugged the wall outlet, unscrewed 2 screws by the lint trap, lifted off the top and unscrewed 2 more screws to take off the front. Holy cow, it had a lot of dust in there, so I did a lot of vacuuming. I couldn't find any gas shutoff on the flexible line coming into the dryer, so I moved everything carefully and didn't unhook any gas connections, obviously. I saw an internal shutoff screw on the gas control valve once I was in there, or I could have shut off the main house gas line too.I couldn't loosen the screw on the side of the igniter since it is close to the left side of the box, even with some channel locks, so I unhooked the belt and took the drum out. Then I vacuumed more. Oh, I also cleaned out the exhaust ducts and the top lint screen housing with brushes I bought in the past.By taking the drum out I could reach the gas control stuff in the front lower left side. I unscrewed the bracket for the igniter, and changed it to the new one, exact match. I also changed out the valve coils, they are easy, unplug the wire/clip thing from each one, unscrew the metal bracket holding them in, swap out with new ones, reconnect clips.It was a little tricky getting the drum back on, had to make sure the seal was not folded or overlapped wrong, then put the belt on and put it back on the rollers in back and the lower Z-roller/bracket thing in front. I rotated it around to get everything to seat properly, propped it up with a dumbbell. Then reinstalled the front, screws, the electrical wire harness clip to the housing, then the lid, the screws for the lint trap, then slid the whole thing carefully back onto the ductwork and laid on the floor to wiggle it nice and snug to seal well.Then I plugged it back in, and now it WORKS! Hallelujah. And now the clothes dry better, we can set it for at least 1 line less dry time versus before. So if your gas Whirlpool dryer is not working/heating I'd recommend buying all 3 parts, but be sure to NOT TOUCH the igniter - your skin oils will make it fail/wear out rapidly.I am not an expert, I watched a couple videos (thank you repair clinic dot com!! ), reviewed setup info, prayed for wisdom and safety, and I'd guess it took me about 1.5 hrs. to get the whole process done, this included setting up tools, lights, labor, a lot of vacuuming up dust and crud. :) I also took my time to be sure to everything correctly.OH - and I used my camera to take several pics to be sure I'd 'reinstall' things just like they were before, as a 'backup precaution.'

It was just the reason why gas dryer wasn't drying. Easy to install. Very fragile so be careful. Much cheaper than a new dryer.
