Gas Valve Test, IMPORTANT

Page 74 highlights

Gas Valve Test 1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power. 2. Remove harness plugs. 3. Use an ohmmeter to determine if a gas valve coil has failed. Measure resistance across terminals. See the illustration. • Readings should match those shown in the table. • If not, replace coil. IMPORTANT: Be sure all harness wires are looped back through the strain relief after checking or replacing coils. 1 2 3 45 Terminals Resistance 1 to 2 1 to 3 4 to 5 1365 ± 25 560 ± 25 1220 ± 50 6-8
