It heats for the 1st 15 min and then cools for the last 5 min of the 1st cycle, and the clothes are not dry at the end. When we run a 2nd cycle, there is no heat. What would be the likely causes of no heat on a second cycle? Thanks, Sup

If I wait a little while to start the 2nd cycle, it ignites and heats again. This dryer is probably about 20 yrs old. (P.S. Thanks for the bump brobriffin.)

Try this, set it to run and at about 8 to 10 minutes open the door or whatever to interrupt the cycle then in a few seconds or so shut the door and restart the cycle. Does the gas ignite right away?
