After about 10 minutes of going through the drying cycle, the heat stops. The pilot comes on but does not reignite the gas. It will reset if unplugged and will heat again for about 10 minutes.

These coils get hot and quit. Then when they finally cool off they work once or twice and quit again. Replace these babys:bake element.jpgThey are easily replaced. Just take 2 phillips screws off the retainer and lift it off. Unplug the coils and lift them out. Install the new coils. There is no way you can mess up with the placement or the install. Very easy fix.
