Whirlpool coin op dryer gas lights up but wont spin or blow air.
I have a coin op unit on a property. Initial complaint was the the start button was sticking it does and I can fix that. you can press it in but it is sticky and pops back out if you wiggle it a bunch.
But while I was there I notices a worse problem. Door closed press start and the gas heater ignites. I can smell it and feel the heat and then I can hear the thermal cut off kill the heat.
The drum does not spin and the blower does not blow. Im assuming they could both be run by the same motor. I doubt it has to do with the sticking start button.
IF you have any ideas if its something not too complicated that would be amazing. Thanks you tons in advance.
