DOES YOUR DRYER HAVE THE LINT SCREEN ON THE TOP? IF SO, REMOVE THAT AND TAKE TWO SCREWS OF(CARE NOT TO DROP IT INTO THE VENT). PULL THE TOP PANEL TOWARD YOU LITTLE BIT AND LIFT UP, THERE WILL BE TWO 5/16 SCREWS INSIDE FRONT PANEL, REMOVE AND UNPLUG THE LID SWITCH CONNECTOR, FRONT PANEL WILL COME OUT. THE GAS VALVES AND COILS ASSEMBLY WILL BE ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT. UNPLUG AND TAKE THE SCREWS OFF THE BRACKET AND REPLACE COILS. CHECK FOR CONTINUITY ON COILS, IT SHOULD READ 1.3 TO 1.9 OHMS. THE ONE WITH THREE TERMINAL, CHECK OHM FROM MIDDLE TERMINAL TO OUTSIDE TERMINALS.

if the ignitor is glowing then replace the gas coils they are part number 5303931775. If the ignitor is not glowing then look at the thermal fuse located either on the blower housing or if the lint screen is on the top its behind the back panel. Its skinny and white if its blown replace that and the thermal fuse and check your venting because clogged venting can cause the thermal fuse to blow. There should be a small square access piece at the bottom corner of front panel you can remove to see if the ignitor is glowing or not. Hope this helps _MJ_
