My gas dryer runs, but the it won't ignite. I replaced the igniter and it still does not glow, so it must not be getting power. There is continuity for the flame sensor, both solenoids, and both thermostats. I do here some intermittent clicking/static like noise from the solenoids, but I don't think a bad solenoid would prevent the igniter from glowing. I have not checked the thermal fuse because I don't know where it is. The sears part diagrams are not helping me.

I have a multimeter, that is how I checked the continuity for everything but the thermal fuse. Anyway, the thermal fuse is located on the blower housing, which is easily accessed by removing the back panel of the dryer. The thermal fuse is located in the back near the bottom center.

The thermal fuse is easy to replace. The hardest part is taking off the back panel. Once you get the panel off you will have an easy time replacing the thermal fuse.
