My Amana dryer starts and the igniter heats up and the flame starts about 30 seconds later. Then the flame quickly goes out after 10-20 seconds. I have checked my exhaust for blockage and I didn't find any. I have replaced the gas coils as this seems to be the leading cause of this type of issue, and this has not fixed the problem. Where do I turn next?

Hi,

Is the dryer apart when testing? If yes, we can effect air flow giving strange results.

Then the flame quickly goes out after 10-20 seconds

...and then what happens?
