The ignitor lights. the gas dont pick up, after about 20-30 sec the ignitor lights again but the gas still dont pick up. So the dryer dont work. What is most likely the problem?

Assuming there is gas to the dryer and gas shut off valve is open, most likely the problem is a bad gas valve coils (#13 & #14 on the diagram).

- The coil kit Part number: AP3094251

Hi again.
It might sound like a silly question...why do I need a kit ot 2 coils? I see in the back only 1 black coil? also, I see im ******** part # 279834 of Maytag, for $5.95 plus s/h is it the same as Whirpool #AP3094251 for $14.95 plus s/h. But each part 13 or 14 as you mentioned is $23.95 plus s/h, I'm confused.
Which part should I buy? how many coils do I have to replace? where are they?Thanks!
