My gas dryer does not work. The igniter lights but the gas burner will not ignite. I thought the flame sensor would be bad. I removed the flame sensor. It has continuity at room temperature, which it is correct and indicates it is OK. What could be the problem with this dryer. Thanks.

I would replace the coils on the gas valve if the sensor, and the ignitor are good. Tom ApplianceEducator.com
