Frigidaire Sensor 5303281135 OEM Part

Frigidaire, in collaboration with Electrolux, produces a range of home appliances, including those distributed under the Sears-Kenmore name. Among their products, the flame sensor for gas dryers stands out as a vital OEM component. This sensor's primary role is to detect the flame that enables the gas valve to open, ensuring effective heat production.

In instances where a dryer does not generate enough heat, a malfunctioning flame sensor is frequently the cause. This problem often results in clothing requiring additional drying time, indicating the sensor's decreased effectiveness.

To replace a faulty flame sensor, begin by partially disassembling the dryer. First, unscrew the unit from beneath the lint cover to lift off the top. Proceed by disconnecting the door switch wiring, removing the front panel, and detaching the belt from the pulley. These steps will give you access to the drum, which must be removed to reach the sensor.

Installing the correct OEM flame sensor helps the dryer to achieve its designed performance and safety standards while effectively resolving heating issues like insufficient or absent heat output.
