    Tappan Dryer model TDG336RBW1
    When I start the dryer the ignitor glows then after a few seconds it sounds like the burner tries to light but doesn't. This morning it worked fine for about 30 minutes, then I checked and it was cold. When you put cloths in does the burner kick on and off as the cloths are drying? I replace the Ignitor assembly about a year ago.
    Thank you for any help you can give me.

    Sounds like a coil problem, if you looking to do the repair yourself the following site should help, plus you can order repair parts. Good luck The Virtual Repairman's Appliance Help :: View topic - Diagnosing Burner Problems in Gas Dryers
