I have a maytag neptune mdg5500aww gas dryer that is not working properly. The gas fires up fine for about 10 seconds then shuts off. Everything appears to continue to work except the fire. It refires after about 45 seconds for about 10 seconds then goes out again. I thought that the vent might be clogged so I took it apart and cleaned it. It wasn’t clogged. I tried to enter "service mode" by pressing and holding "airfluff" and "time +" but it doesn’t seem to enter service mode. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. thanks
Well… I ordered a set of coils… Hopefully that will do it.
well … I replaced the coils on the dryer and all is good now… its nice to have dry clothes again… now to just catch up on all that laundry…
I’m having the same problem.
What do you mean by "coils"?
The igniter?
Coils and igniter are separate components. Most dryers require "M" series coils. 1 with 3 prongs and the other has 2.
