Ran the dryer and watched as the ignitor started the gas and watched it go out after about 10 seconds. We replaced the coils and still have the same problem with the gas only burning for about 10 seconds before going out. The dryer then conitnues this over and over. We need suggestions on the next step to make this work again.
