If the igniter glows and there is gas to the dryer but it does not light then the only failure suspect left is the gas valve.

- The part number for the gas valve is AP3083221

Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool dryer Model GGQ9800LG1

Check the temperature switch on the control panel.

Also the cycling thermostat has to be replaced due to: "open across violet".

- The part number for the temperature switch is AP2947360

- The part number for the cycling thermostat is AP3045874
