Default Gas Dryer Troubleshooting

Got a dryer that only heats for about 10 minutes then will not ignite
for the remainder of the cycles.

If I put it on timed cycle it will spin for the specified time, but
only warm up once. Put it on an automatic cycle and it spins forever
after warming up once.

Shut it off, wait a minute and restart - back to 10 minutes of heat.

Vent is clear.

Know there's a few sensors and thermal monitoring circuits around the
burner, if it's a simple R&R, where would I look first? Have VOM, know
how to use it - but normally on CATV.

Thanks


Bob's right on. Replace the coils and the dryer should be back to
normal. Fifty bucks though sounds a bit too much. How about $16 -
