Whirlpool WP338906 Dryer Flame Sensor
The Whirlpool WP338906 Dryer Flame Sensor detects burner flame heat and signals the control system to regulate gas flow in compatible gas dryers. Using heat-sensitive detection, it verifies flame presence before the gas valve remains open, supporting proper burner control during drying cycles. A faulty sensor may prevent ignition, cause the burner to shut off unexpectedly, or result in inconsistent heating.
