I have a Kenmore 80 series Super capacity plus dryer. Model# 77832791 77832 that is not heating. Sounds like after it runs for about 30 seconds that it is trying to fire up but then doesn't. I consider myself to be handy and could probably fix it with some help. Any idea where I should start? Does it sound like the sensor, the ignitor, or some other part? The air dry works fine just no heat...

Thank you.

You'd have to get the cover off at this point. It could be the ignitor, and you'd see that soon enough if you can run it with the cover off. If not, could be the flame sensor or high limit sensor (if equipped) which can be ascertained by jumping out.
