Dryer doesn't get hot, I opened the front & the following is what I found. Looks like ignitor is working it glows & flame comes on for 5-10 second.
Then flame goes out. Any suggestions ?
Thanks,
Mike

mike unhook the vent hose from the back of the dryer and do the same test. feel and see if the air comes out hard where the vent is. if it does the same with the vent off, replace the coils on the gas valve. tom
