MGD5630HW
Maytag MGD5630HW Gas Clothes Dryer Repair
Most common issues on this model
- No heat although the drum turns
- Wet laundry after a full cycle
- Automatic cycle that ends too early
- Drum roller noise
The MGD5630HW is a Maytag gas dryer with an electronic control. The number also turns up as MGD5630HC. It uses a gas line for heat and a 120-volt outlet for the motor and controls, and it is usually placed on an exterior wall or in a garage so the vent run stays short.
On a gas dryer like this, an early stop on an automatic cycle first sends us to the moisture-sensing bars, if your unit has them, and then to the vent. No heat means we test the igniter, the valve coils and the gas shutoff. Thumping is nearly always a roller or the belt.
We read the full model and serial from the label before ordering a part. The price is in writing first, and the work comes with a 30-day workmanship warranty.

Error codes this model can show
Why does the MGD5630HW stop before the load is dry?
Residue on the moisture-sensing bars can make an automatic cycle end early, and a restricted vent can do the same. We clean the bars where fitted, check the duct and test the thermal parts.
What do you test when a gas dryer will not heat?
The gas shutoff, then the igniter current and the valve coils, and then the thermal fuse and flame path. You approve the written price before we replace anything.
Is MGD5630HC the same as MGD5630HW?
It is the same number with a different color ending. Some parts differ by revision, so we copy the whole number from the label before ordering, and you see the price in writing first.
