Okay,
I converted to propane day 1
and it worked fine for 4 years, then no heat.

I am not a repairmen/electrician but I have tried researching this and have gotten this far.

drum spins
propane is available
Flame sensor has continuity
high heat thermostat has continuity

igniter does not fire -
turned dryer on and tested leads to igniter. No voltage

Why?

I do not wish to start swapping out parts randomly and do not have several hundred to buy a new dryer (and convert it). What do I test now and how.
Thanks,
Malcolm

Check for a tech sheet inside your unit usually at the top of dryers or behind the touchpad and track the circuit involving your heat element. Check all thermisters, thermal cut offs, coils, thermostats and ohm test the ignitor. Generally if you don't have 120v going to the ignitor it's a main board issue possibly also. Track all your wires and ohm test everything in that circuit.
