Fits/Works great!
Why spend $200 for a repairman to fix your dryer when you can do it yourself for a few bucks? Doing basic research on the net, there were really about two options for why my dryer wasn't heating when on; dead solenoid(s) or broken (cracked) ignitor. I mistakenly bought the solenoids first which proved not to be the issue but instead the ignitor was dead.
Checking the ignitor is beyond simple. And you most likely don't even need a volt meter to check electrical flow. First, disconnect the ignotor at its base (plug/wire harness). Simply remove your ignitor (just loosen the mounting screw, do not fully remove it) and slide it out. Then visually inspect the old ignitor by holding it up to a light and if you see a crack in the unit (it's a looped, single piece of metal), then it's burned out. Another identifier is to look for a white, burn mark which means the ignitor has arced and cracked. This is a normal wear and tear part on every dryer.

I ordered it to be replaced in my dryer. It was amazing and satisfying that the dryer started to heat up again.
