    Dryer won't heat up
    Start the dryer.. Ignitor glows.. Burner ignites for about 15 secs. Or so then they both go out. In about a minute later ignitor glows again and burner ignites for about 15 seconds again. This goes on and on. Can you tell me what is wrong with dryer and what part I need to replace? ALready have tested flame sensor and with the meter set at 200 oms get a reading of 1.0 to 0.9. Also tested ignitor with the same testing of 200oms and got a reading of 65.9. Also replaced gas valve heat coils. And tested safety thermostat at 200oms and got a reading of 1.0 to 0.9. Hope this help in someone giving me a diagnosis.

    dryerinny, make sure the vent is clear, see if the dryer will work right while you have it pulled away from the wall. Also post the make and model number. Good luck
