For example, when I measured input to ignitor, it was approx 27 volts, was sort of expecting 110-120. I am guessing it could be ignitor or thermal fuse? Any and all suggestions on fixing this would be appreciated. Thanks

You will need to check all components upstream from the gas assembly and all connectors. Check overload and cycling thermostat,thermal fuse and timer.

In other words when I measured the voltage feeding Ignitor to be 27v, was that good or low and it should have been 110/120? I figure I can check for simple continuity on the thermal fuse, but question would be where to find? I know these are probably some dumb questions, but I'm just trying to fix the dryer without re-purchasing it, or having to buy a new one.....:) Best Regards, David
