Most common reasons for a gas dryer to fail: 1. No electric, 2. no gas supply, 3. failed ignitor, 4. failed flame sensor. If 1 & 2 are ruled out, then we go from there. An ignitor/glow ignitor is what gets hot and allows the gas to be ignited. Most dryers will not let the igntior come on if the flame sensor is down. Replacing an ignitor is very easy. Usually 1 screw and a molex (special type of plastic electrical connection). Molex connection will usually pull apart very easily. This repair should cost less than about $30 if you buy it online. There are step by step instructions for this repair on this website if you search for "gas dryer no heat troubleshooting." Making this repair will require access to the internal workings of your dryer. Make sure the dryer is unpluged from the wall before you access it or the control panel.

Could be a coil...but I have learned that it usually is the ignitor...

huntman, the model posted shows as a gas dryer. In the lower left side there is a square plastic peep hole. Take a putty knife and pull it off. Set the dryer to high heat and take a look in the hole. Does the ignitor glow? If it doesn't you either have a bad thermal fuse or a bad ignitor. Start with the thermal fuse. You will have to remove the back panel to get at it. I will attach a photo. You can ohm it out, or just jump the wires temp. to see if the ignitor glows. If theral fuse is good and the ignitor does glow, you probabley have a bad set of coils. These sit on the gas valve are easy to replace. The timer won't advance without the heat. Check this out first...Catriver..post back.
