Common Causes of “Gas Dryer Not Heating”
These are the top fixes technicians see for no-heat gas dryers.
Igniter Not Working
No glow or weak glow = burner won’t ignite → no heat.
Bad Gas Coils
Dryer may heat once then stop heating. Very common failure.
Flame Sensor Fault
If sensor can’t detect flame, gas won’t stay on properly.
Thermal Fuse Blown
Overheating or vent restriction can blow safety fuses.
Vent Airflow Blocked
Restricted venting causes overheating + weak drying performance.
Control / Timer Issues
Less common, but can stop heat cycles or ignition sequence.
Quick Checks (Before Calling)
Safe, simple checks that match what people search for.
If clothes take too long to dry, airflow may be restricted. A clogged vent can also trigger overheating and blow the thermal fuse.
If your igniter doesn’t glow at all, it may be failed or not receiving power. A technician can confirm quickly.
