Dryer started making a buzzing noise when the start button was pushed. I replaced the igniter and the coils. The igniter works, glows red and goes out. Buzzing stops when the igniter goes out. I have jumped the flame sensor and still no luck. I have tested the thermal switch and other sensors in the back and have continuity there. I am stuck here, any suggestions?
