    My dryer has had trouble producing heat on some settings for a while. Recently it stopped producing heat on all settings. I removed the lower panel and pressed start on the medium heat setting and timed dry setting.

    The heating element glowed and the flame kicked in and it ran for a full cycle. I put another load in and same thing. Third load itonly produced flame for a minute or two, but the dryer continues to run. I have disconnected from power a couple of times and still only heats for a minute or two.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,

    So, the likelycause of the flame going outis the ignition coil set? Just want to be clear before I order. I also cannotconfirm theproper coil set as my model number 110.70932990 doesn't comeup anywhere, but on the sears site.

    Any thoughts on how toconfirm this is thecorrect coil pair?

    Thank you again,

    The coils are standard, you'll be fine with those.
