# LG-built Kenmore dryer error code gAS

### Whose code this actually is

Kenmore did not write gAS, because Kenmore has never built an appliance. This one is LG’s, and it appears on the dryer that LG built and Sears sold under the Kenmore badge. Whirlpool, LG and Frigidaire all built dryers for this badge, and all three publish short two-character codes, so a lookup that skips the prefix is a coin toss dressed as an answer.

### What it means

No gas supply. It is the only gas-specific code LG publishes for these dryers.

### Which Kenmore models can raise it

The Kenmore dryer whose model number begins 796 — the three digits before the period on the rating plate. Those digits are LG’s, which is why LG’s table is the one that applies to gAS and no other manufacturer’s does.

### What happens next

- Check the gas valve behind the machine is open, and that other gas appliances in the house are working.
- If the supply is good, the igniter or the valve coils are next, and that is licensed work.

### Where this usually goes

The job this most often becomes is [diagnostic visit](/services/diagnostic-visit/), and that page carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. A Kenmore dryer in South Florida is almost always on a long horizontal duct carrying humid air, and that duct is behind more heat and airflow codes here than any component inside the machine. Photograph the display before you cut the power: a reset clears gAS, and on a Kenmore the characters plus three digits off the plate are most of the diagnosis.

### Where this meaning came from

LG’s own documentation: *LG Help Library — error code lists*. Kenmore publishes none of its own, which is why every entry on this site names the manufacturer’s document instead.
