Where is the coil valve located?

I have a whirlpool estate dryer that is not drying clothes. The last time this happened, it was a bad coil valve. I'm going to try to replace it myself and have seen pictures of what the coil valve looks like, but I don't know where it's located. Thanks!

The coils on this unit are located on the gas/burner valve Assembly. this is a all in one situation. everything is located on the gas valve assembly. you will need to remove the coils from the gas valve assembly.they are attached to the valve assembly.

Located on the back side of the unit on the lower back side. (right)

Dryer does not dry clothes completely

If your machine is taking that long to dry. You either have a clogged vent to the outside or your gas valve coils are bad. You can check to see if it is your vent by disconnecting it for one cycle. If the unit drys in time then clean your vent. Click Here to see what a clogged vent can do. Click here to see gas valve coils.

Hello,

The gas coils have failed. These are the two round devices on the gas valve. You would need to open the dryer to access and replace the gas valves. Every make and model is different.

Whirlpool Estate Dryer TGDS840JQ1 dryer runs but does not heat up to dry the clothes.

you may have a igniter gone bad or your thermostat may have failed... your igniter is what has to ignite the gas to burn to make it hot. If its electric then your heating coil has failed and needs to be replaced
