Dryer Repair

I have a maytag neptune mdg5500aww gas dryer that is not working properly. The gas fires up fine for about 10 seconds then shuts off. Everything appears to continue to work except the fire. It refires after about 45 seconds for about 10 seconds then goes out again. I thought that the vent might be clogged so I took it apart and cleaned it. It wasn't clogged. I tried to enter "service mode" by pressing and holding "airfluff" and "time +" but it doesn't seem to enter service mode. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. thanks

Well... I ordered a set of coils... Hopefully that will do it.

I'm having the same problem.
What do you mean by "coils"?

The igniter?
