Hi Gurus, Ben back here again.
I have an 11 yo Frigidaire Gallery fsg748gfs1.
In 2004 I I had no heat, and I seem to have ordered every part possible from repairclinic back then and can't remember if I used all or only some. No record of returns. I ordered igniter, coils, thermal fuse, light sensor.
I live in NYC and have a cramped kitchen-- there's a cabinet above the stacked washer/dryer that must be temporarily removed to be able to gain access to the top of the dryer for diagnostics. I only want to remove this once.
I've studied all the info here and I'm wondering if I should just order everything again? Or is there a usual culprit? (Thanks to Jake for helping me recently with my Oven igniter.)
Only clues I have: When I start the dryer, in addition to the tumbling, I hear a click and a buzzing sound, then after 15 seconds or so, another click and the buzzing sound goes away. No buzzing/clicking at all in tumble dry. I assume the click is the solenoid to start the glow or the gas, the buzzing is the solenoid itself.
Help. Thanks.
