The Igniter won't lite up. I benched checked & it's good. I checked all fuses & switches. All good. I measure 26Vac @ the igniter plug with the drum removed, & motor running. Please help before I have to get a replacement. I've been at it most of the day. Thanks, Phil:eek:

Check the radiant sensor. Should be closed which applies full voltage to the ignitor. Could also be a faulty motor switch.
