If you ohm out the coils, they will check out good. But, they might not be. Ray, her is what I do. I would put the coils on, because they are alot cheaper, and it takes care of the problem 90 % of the time. If not, a gas valve it is. Let me know how it goes. Tom

first look to see if the ignitor comes on then goes off without any flame -- if so probably bad gas valve coils if the ignitor doesnt come on then the ignitor is bad or the thermal fuse and / or operating thermostat is bad or multiple other less common problems (timer, motor switch, broken/loose wire, etc)

Kind of a pain but it's done. I replaced the coils and it's back on line. Thanks Tom.
