Product review (5 stars): identical factory part,  80 ohms of resistance
I am a slacker... often confused with lazy. A slacker wants to do the bare minimums to achieve a favorable outcome.

That being said I ordered this part with out ever opening up the drier, since the cost of the part does not justify the cost of my time.
When I did open up the drier I found a fire hazard of lint that would have burned for days.  After a complete cleaning I got back to ohming out the original igniter (!@#$) it showed 83 ohm of resistance, then I checked the new one and it was 81 ohm of resistance. Gambling is part of the slackers creed, and sometimes you lose.  Although I have replace igniters that showed a decent resistance but were still the source of the failure.

Although this part did not fix my problem I was happy with the product. It appears to be genuine whirlpool and was identical in every way to the 15 year old original.

I began checking parts. flame sensor 1 ohm, coils showed rsistance. The problem after a very short investigation was the thermal fuse showed open on the meter ( infinite resistance).

removed the fuse and jumpered the wires to test the igniter.  turned on power, hit the door switch, turned the timer and hit start, 2 seconds later the igniter started to glow. Unpluged the drier and removed jumper, then got back on amazon and order the $7 fuse.
