Igniter comes on and flame lights, but only for about 30 seconds, and then you can see the igniter cool off form the rear towards the tip and the flame goes out. What would be the first component to check? If it is the coils, what should they read? Thanks!

It probably is the coils from your description. Don't recall the ohms readings, but the problem with checking ohns, is they may check good sitting there, but under load they open up.

Don't overlook a venting issue. A slow vent can cause the flame pattern to flare out and contact the high limit which will short cycle the flame. Below are the coils with part number.
