Check the thermal fuse on the blower housing and the heater housing

I have a maytag Neptune gas dryer model No. MDG4000BWW, this one doesn't heat but I know what happenend; It was exposed to 220V by accident (because I live overseas and the electric convertor is broke, it does not convert the electricity from 220V to 120 V) and now I'm guessing many parts got broke, I don't know how to test the machine but I have been reading the Repair Forum and got ideas, please Help me!

When first turning on dryer, igniter glows, Gas does NOT ignites, then the igniter glows again after 30 seconds, I'm guessing the gas valve does not open and therefore is no burn.

Please give ideas of the cost of buying the parts when the dryer gets double the voltage that supose to receive.
Thanks,
Cielo

I would just replace the gas valve coils, most probable failure.
