WP338906 - Genuine OEM Whirlpool Gas Dryer Flame Sensor

Keep your dryer running safely and efficiently with the WP338906 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Gas Dryer Flame Sensor, available at Appliance Kingdom. This essential replacement part detects the heat from the igniter and signals the gas valve to open, allowing the burner to ignite. A faulty flame sensor can prevent your dryer from producing heat, leading to incomplete drying cycles.

Compatible Whirlpool Models Include:
WGD4800XQ0, WGD4815EW1, WGD4815EW2, WGD4815EW3, and many other Whirlpool, Kenmore, and Maytag gas dryers. (Always confirm compatibility with your model number before ordering.)

Function & Importance

The flame sensor is a safety device that ensures gas is only released when the igniter is hot enough to light it. This prevents dangerous gas leaks and ensures efficient heating. Without a properly working flame sensor, your dryer may fail to heat, shut off prematurely, or not ignite at all.

Common Signs the Flame Sensor Needs Replacement

  • Dryer runs but does not produce heat

  • Igniter glows but burner does not ignite

  • Dryer shuts off before completing the cycle

  • Inconsistent heating or extended drying times

If you notice these symptoms, the WP338906 flame sensor is likely the solution.
