My igniter will not glow.

I replaced the igniter, thermal fuse, and thermostat.

I checked the ohm's on all the other sensors and they are good. It appears that my thermal sensor and thermostat was good as well.

When I replaced the thermal fuse and thermostat I ran the dryer without the drum, I assume that would be okay. If not, let me know.

What else could it be?

Thanks in advance.

Can the solenoids continuity affect the igniter glowing?

You need to follow the voltage from line in through the timer, the temp. selector switch, to the thermostat to the safety thermostat to the air inlet control thermostat then to the ignitor and the sensor then to the neutral (white) .

Something is stopping the power.
