I have an LG DLG5932W gas dryer. I need to know where the reset button is. l believe I tripped while vacuuming the inside out. I remember that it was underneath the front cover and I looked with a mirror and still could not locate the button. Could you please tell me where it is located.I am having one of those forgetfull moments. Thank You

Best instructions for removing the front panel to access the thermostat are in the service manual, try here (it says "electric dryer" but the manual covers gas, too): https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5If-wTgYWH5YzZhYTgzMTQtYmExMi00OGYzLWIxNGEtYzg4N2U1OWU1YzNl/edit?pli=1

Still a bit difficult to find the thermostat--it's at about 7 o'clock when looking at the combustion chamber from the front. The switch is in the center of the disk, pointing down. Press it once and notice a click; after that it simply seems loose.

Just saw this done yesterday.

How to open unit:

First, UNPLUG THE ELECTRICITY!!

There are two clips that hold the top to the front. Slide a putty knife into the seam between top and front about two inches from the corners, push the clips backwards and pop the top up.

Next, remove two screws on top of the front. Then open the dryer door and remove the two screws on the front, just below the opening. (BE CAREFULL!! THE DOOR IS GLASS AND THE FRONT WILL FALL IF NOT SUPPORTED!!)

The reset switch in built onto the thermostat. The thermostat is located in the bottom right hand front corner of the dryer. It is behind another component, so it is not easily seen. You may want to use a small mirror to see it. Or just gently feel around for a small round pushbutton.

Once you have reset the switch, close the unit by reversing the steps above.

I hope this helps!
