So glad it helped 😊
7 years later and this fix still works for newer dryers. Thank you! You saved me from having to buy a new one!
You are welcome!😊😊😊
My husband was in the process of buying a new dryer and it occured to me that I should google the issue. This was the first video that came up. I decided to give it a shot while husband was at work and IT WORKED!! I'm so stinking proud of myself!!!! Thanks so much!!!!
DUDE!!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!! My dryer was not heating up. After all trouble shooting it was giving me a "flow sense" error. I took the front off, cleaned all of the duct work and dust off of the ignitor and pilot light. Still not working. LG customer service was going to schedule a repair person to come out. ($99 service call, just to start). Came across this video and BOOM....FIXED!! I would have lost my cool if I got charged 100 bucks for a guy to push a button! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!
I love it.
Thanks Matt👍
Worked all day relocating gas line and exhaust vent from dryer , I stared the dryer up....motor turned but no ignition ....decided to YOU TUBE the problem ....you were the first channel that came up....followed your instructions.....THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
I love it😊😊😊
Can ANYone imagine what we would do without these videos?! I can!
Ive fixed my electric oven and gas dryer back in the days before.
A lot of trial and error and visit to the appliance store for parts!
I've fixed my dryer and my washer numerous times with the help of CZcams. Thanks for all you do. I hope residuals from all of the viewers is making up for less house calls!
🕊💕📿🕯
Thanks so Much Sharon❤️❤️❤️
I live in a rural area and can't find someone to repair it that's closer than 3 hours away. This worked for me! Thank you so much!
Excellent job 😊😊😊
AMAZING! I watched multiple vids on this problem. ALLLLL said to replace the heating unit; which I did....... NO CHANGE........ NONE.
NO ONE even mentioned that he reset button! I can’t wait to get home and try this. I just know it will work. We already had the new dryer picked out and nearly purchased. I also REALLY appreciated the 2 hand option tip; you were the only one to mention that. Great vid....... I’ll be back.... though I hope I have no more need of appliance repair Thank you !!!!
Awesome, please let us know how it goes👍
The fact that I entered the dry model and serial number on CZcams and your video was the first to pop up was cool.. the fact that you went step by step even showing inside the dryer was fantastic.. but after I did everything went to the front of my dryer and pressed play. Waited for 30sec, opened the door and the heat hit me in the face was a priceless moment!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
My way of repaying you.... I gave you a shot out on Facebook and posted your video!!
Thanks so much Daisy, I really appreciate it❤️😊
Thank you Scott. I was able to do this and cancel the repair man. You just saved this disabled VETERAN some money, I can't thank you enough.
+Brian Aites
Thanks Brian, and thanks for your service to our country. Glad I could help.
Did you have to disconnect from the outlet?
Wow, I can't believe how easy that fix was. My wife is very happy with how quick and with no cost it was. Thank you, thank you!
+e
duston udell
You are very welcome.
I would check the vent tube to make sure it's not clogged
THANK YOU! Solved my issue in 30 minutes of work. Greatly appreciate you!
One tip: The button clicked when I pressed it. I think that showed that it was tripped.
You’re right👍
Thank You! I just noticed my laundry wasn't warm or dry. I googled, "Lg dryer not heating up," and came across this video when browsing through options. Did exactly as you did and with the push of a button my dryer was fixed! Thank you again!
Very cool😊
This video is a great help and solved the problem with my dryer. I have a service contract through Home Depot. The technician from the repair company came and said the dryer needed a new main circuit board. I was suspicious immediately. I saw this video and gave it a try and sure enough this was the problem. The dryer just needed all the lint cleaned up and the reset button pushed. And my wife is thrilled to have her dryer back in service and not having to wait for un-needed parts and another appointment with the repair tech. Thanks again to Scottthefixitguy.
That’s great news Roger,
Thanks so much for posting.
I've never experienced an easier, more helpful, cheaper appliance fix. I recommend this video 100%
My 9 year old lg dryer stopped heating couple days ago...used manual to troubleshoot & removed virtually all the lint but still no heat. Finally found your video...don’t know why the manual doesn’t mention this fix. And it worked! Wife was literally on phone to get a repairman when I finally fixed the issue. Thx Scott!
Excellent 😎
Scott, you're a life saver dude.
I have work at 7am.
Im sitting here at 2am figuring this out until i stumbled across your video.
Got a few hrs of sleep and dry clothes for work haha thanks scott.

Thanks so Much John😊
This worked and was easy. Saved me a $130 service fee!!!
Thank you😊
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel While I was at it, I disassembled the vent assembly and vent tube. Two vacuum canisters later full of lint ... now I know why I set of the high heat sensor. Glad I didn't start a fire. Let me know if you have any videos on freeing stuck A/C baffles in a 1996 Collectors Edition Corvette!!!
I can't believe it was that easy. Now I have heat again. Thanks
Awesome,
Thanks so much😊👍
DUDE! Your shared knowledge made me a hero today!! U-DA-MAN
I Really can't thank you enough for this video... was about to not even fuss with a repairman and buy a whole new dryer. THANK YOU!
Thanks so much😊
Excellent ,
Thank you😊
Thank you SO MUCH!!! You just saved us so much time and money. Our dryer would only spin and wouldn't heat up.My husband had our dryer fixed within 20 minutes of watching your video.
Thank you so much!! I watched other videos and was told I needed parts after running the tests. Your video showed me exactly what I needed and I was able to fix my dryer for free! I did do a total cleaning of the vent and got a nice "lint python" which likely is what tripped the button. Thank you so much! My husband also thinks I am a badass and he didn't even have to get involved when he got home from work which is pretty cool too!
Very impressive 😊❤️
Wow - you're a rock star! Thank you. Can't believe they made the reset switch so buried and so happy to avoid unnecessarily changing the gas valve and other parts that are working perfectly fine.
Thanks so much Jeff 👍
I wish that reset was in the outside of the machine.
Heck yeah!!! Watching this saved me money!! I was able to reach the reset switch from the side panel.
Thanks Frankie,
Thank you. Please check out our new DIY Appliance Repair channel at: m.czcams.com/channels/bQy5UxlvaPPsDHvfvW76JQ.html
Man... It works like a charm. You know what, we are planning to purchase a new gas dryer because we spend almost $300 to fix it last time because the hose was full of lints and dirts. I came across this clips and boom... it is now fixed. Thank you so much!!
You had saved me almost a grand.
Very impressive😊👍
Scott you are the man !!! God bless and thank you for caring and sharing.
You’re welcome 👍😊
Dude. You are the best! I was just about to purchase a couple of different thermostats to fix this but I watched your video and said might as well spend 5 minutes trying this. Took 3 mi uses and worked first time. Appreciate it.
Thanks so much Mark😊
You rock! You should leave a Venmo link so people can actually throw you a few bucks for saving them hundreds if not thousands. I called LG and they went through the diagnostic and didn’t even do the smart diagnostic and said I needed a new igniter. I called my local appliance parts store and they said that it’s probably not the igniter but one of the fuses/thermostats blew so to take the dryer apart bring down the two or three thermostats and they would test it and find out which one’s bad. I did what they said but they closed for the evening by the time I got everything apart so I started watching a few videos and stumbled upon yours. I realized one of the thermostats that I took out had a reset button so I thought I’d give it a try, reset the switch, put everything back together… And voilà! It worked like a charm! Thank you thank you so much!
Thanks so much👍👍👍
Thank you Scott. You've made my parents anniversary even better. They were so close to buying a new dryer but thanks to you I fixed it before the purchase was made. Much appreciated!
Nice job, you made them proud😊
Great video. You just saved me a new dryer
Awesome,
Thanks so much 😊
Thank you so much for the video had the dryer sitting for 6 years trying to get it to work and now it’s working and you save me money thanks again
Thanks so much Alex👍
Yep - that did it. Gotta love CZcams and all the content contributors. THANK YOU!!
Thank you!! Made an easy repair of sensors/cutoffs after watching your video.
Awesome,
Thank you
Man you saved me a ton of time and who knows how much money. ( I'd like to think that before I began replacing pieces, I would have found or replaced my multimeter and did the due work). But regardless, that little secret switch saved the day! Thank you for sharing this!
+charles bruce
Excellent,
Thanks Charles
I did this in my LG DLG5002W and it worked like a champ. Thank You so much for posting this.
Gosh darn... You are the man! Thank you very much for your helpful video. Was past midnight and the missus tells me no heat for the dryer. You saved my sleep and some dollars for not having to hire a repair guy.
Awesome😊 make sure to clean out the dryer vent tube👍
Thank you Scott! You saved the day. This reset worked for me!!!
I love it👍
This looks so easy…if you can access the back of your dryer. I think last time we cleaned out the lint from the outside of the house with a long brush on a snake you attach to a drill--we couldn’t move the washer & dryer out.
I need to lower a trained mouse on a rope with a tiny eyeglass screwdriver to make the fix!
Will put this off 3 days till we’re back to normal weather-
Thank you for showing me the real problem-and solution!!!
I know what you mean 😂😂😂
Saved me! I was about to order a part for my DLG588B or whatever it's called and I just used your video to push the button instead. Took me longer to vacuum and put the vent back on than anything else.
Nice job Daniel😊😊😊
10 min fix! You Sir are AWESOME! Thank you so much!!!!
Great Job Manny😊
Thank you so much. It fixed our dryer after we just had it serviced a few weeks ago. We have a family of 10 using it so it was a big inconvenience of it not working.
Awesome, thank you
Worked like a charm a year ago...I guess it tripped again. Just watched your video to refresh my memory and laughed at the "Don't forget to unplug the dryer" comment...last time I didn't an gave myself a shock...no biggie but ripped the crap out of my arm reflexing back along the sheet metal.
I’m glad your nice and safe this time👍
I dont comment often on videos but this one deserves it! Great instructions, quick and to the point. Two thumbs up 👍👍
Thanks so much .
I’m glad I could help👍
Scott you are a life saver, your video got our LG dryer running. Phew, a little dirty, but hey it's drying again.
Amazing.. totally worked! Thank you so much, was already worried about buying a new dryer!
Thanks, my wife wanted to pay hundreds on a used dryer, I told her let me try this first. It worked on my LG DLG2526W dryer. Components were all in the same location as in the video. I wish I could buy you a beer...LOL
Thanks for the video. Took me about 10 min and everything was up and running again. Saved me a bunch I’m sure.
Excellent,
Thanks Jack
Thank you so much! I was freaking out over a new dryer! This did the trick
Awesome, thanks Evan😊
Sweet Sassy Molassy! Our dryer is back up and running great, thanks to your video.
Thanks Thomas😊😊😊
Thank you so much for saving me money. I reset the thermal fuse button and now the heating is working.
Thankyou so much you made my mother in law so happy 😊
wow!! Dude! you helped me fix my drier. i just finished replacing the heating element and realized it wasn't it. I stumbled on your video and Presto!! like magic. Thank you so much! 👏👏👏👍👌
+Redeemed AndFree
That's such an easy repair
Redeemed AndFree did you try doing an ohm test on the heating element ?
Michael Marin, No I did not. I did replace it though, for about $34; the funny thing is I bought a voltOmeter, And didn't know got to test the farm thing so I just replaced it, and hit the reset switch. She's been working fine ever since. Lol.
If the reset switch keeps getting triggered. Do you k ow what might cause that??
That fixed it for my dryer, too! Thanks so much for posting this.
This is the second time in the last three years this video has helped me. How often do these pop? Do you know why they do? Do you think that I should plan on replacing the switch soon, or it is doing its job? Every time I take the dryer apart I vacuum out all the lint.
Thank you!!! Just moved into my new home and this fixed the problem.
Thanks so much Val😊❤️

I been in da repairs for 30+yr and not been happy about all the solid state boards they introduce, design changes, etc., pretty much retired now..like the old Maytags and WP's, much saner. Came up against this beauty (somebody kept my ph.#!) and went thru the usual list of suspects (2 hours worth, taking them apart is a lot of newly invented frustrations) and discovered no igniter glow, called it a day, politely excusing myself to go home and sneak around y-tube some more. Going by the Kenmore Model # got me no place fast, so just started looking at the pictures and figured out it's the same set-up with your LG, here. Never saw the like of that limit-sw. reset button. I'm going there next! Hope it's the same with my people's dryer, oh well, I learned some new cat to skin now. Thank you so much.
Thanks so much for your 30 years of service😊👍
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel Yeah, so here's the ending..I went back for the third pass, day 3, and found that button. It didn't feel tripped, so I went back and pushed pause/start to test it with top and front off. Never had seen the igniter coil come on. I ohm'd the coils and got OPEN. I pulled all the lint and ohm'd the limit-switches, tried ON with my invoice-book (that I never write in) covering the blower front hole. No igniter, tried sticking my meter-probes in the harness connectors to look for 120v when the igniter senser clicks off, didn't see anything. I was about to aks them if they had a spare bed for me. I put everything back together and satrted it..and saw the flame! I was so happy. Grab some money and split! I know my way around that machine now at least, whew! I told the lady I DON'T KNOW WHAT I DID, BUT THERE'S YOUR HEAT!
😂😂😂😂Yep, that’s happened to me many times. I wasn’t really sure which step cured the problem .
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel if it wasn't for the Marx Brothers, I wouldn't have got very far!
If it's one thing iv'e learned, it's go to the internet before you call a service tech for anything! At least try to save yourself some money! With good people like Scott who take the time to lend a helping hand to all of us out here who are willing to give it a go thanks sooooo much! It was a piece of cake and took about 20minutes to do it. One thing you can do is when your putting the tube back in shine a flashlight inside and then you can see your connection point, then you don't have to open the other hole. As for all appliances, do make sure you pull the plug from the wall before you touch anything inside. Can't thank you enough Scott!!!!
You saved my ass man. Thank you! Make sure you remove the screws holding the lint screen and the plastic comes off so you can vaccuum out the bottom. Also use a shop vac in blower mode and blow out the vent tube to the outside. Cover around it with a towel to get maximum pressure.
Good ideas
thanks for sharing this video. the fix took me about 30 minutes and saved a lot of money on a repair guy,
Thanks a million. The reset button is all my dryer needed!
Thanks bud. You just saved me a gi-normous headache. Worked great.
That’s what I love to hear👍

Thanks, it worked on my LG, saved me a service call.
Thanks, Scott! Great tip, saved me having to disassemble the whole thing. Worked like a charm, and now my wife can ooh and aaah about my skills! Ha!
Nicely done😊😂
Thanks! This video saved me hundreds in a repair bill. Future folks: pay attention to the last part about taking off the side panel to put everything back. Guiding the internal duct back into the hole was slightly tricky and required patience.
Thanks so much Dave😀
Did you leave the gas line on while pressing the reset button
Just use a flashligh and look into the internal duct while you are reinserting the duct onto the vent to line up the air duct..
This worked perfectly for me. Thank you!
Thanks so much Justin😊
Scott, thanks for the video. EXACTLY what was wrong with our dryer. I guess they bury it in there to make you check the lint build-up in the flexible exhaust hose.
Thank you😊
Thank you so much so you are the Best... Save me money... I was so hoping it would be something simple and it was thank you thank you so much... Thank you again... being a single mom and taking care of my mom you know how much money you just save me thank you it has not been easy thank you...
You are very welcome😊😊😊
Hey Scott,
Thank you, for your tip. works like new again. If this happens again, I see I can reset it by removing the side cover, without removing t he tube.
Thanks again..... You Rock!
+Ed Holmgren
Very Good Ed,
You might want to check your vent tube to see if it's clogged.
Scottthefixitguy
I did as a matter of fact I took the whole dryer apart when I replaced all 4 rollers.
thanks again for your help and your reply.
Worked like a charm! P.S. don't be a dummy like me. Unplug the dryer first! Got a mild shock from the two terminals surrounding the button.
Thanks Andy
Hi Scott, I've been moving the dryer a bunch as part of a garage project. Now this little breaker keeps popping. I get about three loads and then no heat. I reset and ...three more loads. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks!
Thanks your video I just done my dry and work right we done need A lot work
Nicely done👍

Hey man you’re the best save me 140 bucks God bless you and your family in 2019 thank you brother I didn’t know about that little reset button on the thermostat I am most bought a new heater coil thing
I smacked the sensor on the back with a 3 inch Philips screw driver bit, it reset and now works. Instant fix no cost...
Nice job👍⚙️
Thanks so much! I was about to call someone to come look at it. You saved me a lot of time and money.
Thank you
Thanks for the video. I did know there was a button down there but I couldn't remember where it was since its been so long. but with your help it refreshed my memory. I took off the whole front panel which took longer but since i took it off I took advantage to clean up all of the lint with a shop vacuum and a crevice tool to help prevent a fire that can happen when you have to much lint buildup which actually has already happened to me. So even though with your technique is faster and you could also get some lint through the back it's always a good idea to clean out the front as well. Thanks again!!
Omg!! Awesome!! Thanks so much. Fixed my dryer
Nice job Erin😊😊😊
Brilliant! Worked perfectly. Many thanks!
Thanks David
Scott, thank you so much for this simple, well-explained, supremely helpful video! Easy fix, working great again, lots of money saved. APPLAUDing right now!

Thanks Scott,
U saved me $$$$$$

Dude thanks! We just got a new dryer and it would not heat and I did this and it started working thanks for spreading the information!!!!!
Thanks Jessie😊
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel no problem!! what if it keeps needing reset is that it just overheating? or do I need to change a part?
Hey Jessie,
Just need to clean the dryer vent tube.
Worked for me! Could not figure out why clothes were not drying very fast. Thanks!
Thanks Paul 😊

+RTags77
Excellent, that's such a fast fix-it😀
Super video! I applauded for $5.00 👏👏
Thanks Shannon😊
I appreciate your video Scott. I was able to show my brother what the safety switch was that I was trying to point out to him and you showed him how to get to it or what to look for. Thank you!
All gas appliances have a limit switch dryers, furnace, boilers etc and some are re-settable. I looked back in the reviews and didn't see much of a mention of the reason why this could happen and to check certain things before resetting the switch? In regard to safety these switches are used to stop the flow of heat due to an overheat problem such as lint in the vent, rat, squirrel or maybe a damper that's stuck closed by a wasps nest or lint blockage?
Thanks for the video
Thanks Randy😊
Thanks it did the trick. PS If you use a flash light down the middle of the tube when you reinstalled it it easy to line it up.
Good thinking, thank you👍
Most useful, saved $$$ and hardly you dismantle the dryer to fix it.
Thank you😊👍
Good job! Worked for me
Excellent, thank you 👍
Thank you CZcams Gawd!!! very helpful... very helpful indeed
Thanks Matt😊
Greetings brother,by far great tutorial. Thank you Jesus
Thanks so much Leam😊👍
I want to reiterate "UNPLUG THE DRYER FIRST". After messing with the dryer for 2 hours I got so excited after seeing this video, I jammed my hand in there and got bit! LOL.. If you do not unplug the dryer you will get a shock! Worked like a charm of course.. Keep that lint trap clean!!
Thanks! Worked like a charm.
Awesome, thanks Charles😊
Thanks for the video. It worked great for a day but it's no longer heating. Nor is it giving any error codes. If you're still reviewing your comments here maybe you could give me some additional advice.Thanks again.
Hi Mike ,
I think your vent tube has a clog .
Like so many other comments posted here I can't thank you enough for posting this video. Saved me a tone of time, money and headaches. And I have a happy wife. I did subscribe, and if I could double subscribe you would have that too. A very sincere thanks again.
You are too kind👍
This solved my problem! Thank soooooo much!!
You’re very welcome 😊😊😊
