I have a Kenmore gas dryer that at first comes on but will not relight. It will glow to fire up but will not light up. I have replaced the igniter, the thermal fuse and the thermostat. Help, the laundry is pilling up.

You will want to replace these. The coils will fail with age and will generally allow gas to flow for the first one or two times, but will not after that. Get access to the burner assembly, they are a quick fix.
