My dryer doesn't have flame. I changed the Igniter and checked the flame sensor. Sensor is fine. I also got a new Thermal fuse and new coils but still no flame. What can I do.

No glow from the ignitor? If not, your not getting power to it. You need to check to see where your losing power. Devices in that circuit are timer, temp switch, hi limit thermostat, thermal cutoff, operating thermostat, thermal fuse, flame sensor and motor switch. You can check voltage at each device to determine where your losing it or you can check continuity of each device. The motor switch would have to be activated manually.

Wich is the motor switch to be activated manually, and how you activate it, because everything tested good. I just don't get it.

So your getting 120vac to ground at either terminal of the flame sensor? If yes, and no glow from the ignitor, the ignitor could be bad or your not getting neutral to the ignitor via the motor switch. The motor switch is part of the motor. It is activated by a centrifugal mechanism inside the motor which operates a disc and lever to operate the switch. The two outer terminals of the motor connector (red wires) connect to the internal switch. You would need to check continuity across those terminals on the motor (wiring harness unplugged) while manually activating the switch with a screwdriver pushing against the disc within the motor frame.

Please help!!!! My dryer has no flame. I already did everything I could and nothing work. Tested everything and nothing. I was told that if I changed the Thermal fuse it is suggested to change the hi-limit thermostat even though it tests good. Could that be posible. Thank you in advance for all the suggestions.
