Flame does not ignite. Ignitor did not glow so I replaced it with a new one. The new ignitor did not glow. The thermal thermostat and flame sensor tested closed on a multimeter,but I replaced the flame sensor anyway. Still no flame. There are two coils (2 prong and 3 prong) on this dryer. I got inconsistent readings on these (I tested with both a analog and digital multimeter). I am not sure if the coils have anything to do with the ignitor not glowing. Looking for some help. Thanks.
