Fisher & Paykel DGGX2 Repair & Common Issues

The DGGX2 pairs the SmartLoad top-loading cabinet with a gas burner, and the split of responsibilities inside it is worth understanding: the drum, the controls and the exhaust sensing run on 120V exactly as the electric version does, while only the heat comes from gas. That is why a DGGX2 that tumbles happily but dries nothing is nearly always a burner-side problem — igniter, flame sensing or the gas valve — rather than anything wrong with the control board.

FAQ

Fisher & Paykel DGGX2 FAQ

On a gas SmartLoad, to the burner circuit. The igniter, the flame sensor and the gas valve coils are the three usual candidates, and they are tested in that order.

We would not recommend it. The gas supply has to be shut off at the appliance valve before anyone works anywhere near the burner or the valve, and that is work for a qualified gas technician.
