Dryer heats up, dryer still runs but heat never comes back on. If I let the dryer sit for about 30 minutes it will fire back up and until it cycles off and then never come back on again. There is continuity through the thermal fuse and thermostat. Could it be the coils or something else. Please help me, getting really frustrated. Thanks in advance......

Changed the coils today and it appears to be working normally. Thanks for the help. :)

I have the same problem as above, at first, no flame, found bad coil with 3 terminals (one side was open) replaced, dryer seemed to work for a few weeks. Now it heats and guessing when it cycles off, it doesn't heat again unless I trun off for 30 minutes or so. What you think, could it still be the coils?

I always replace them in pairs even if they ohm out.
