How bout next step if Ignite still doesnt glow?

Still trying to track down missing voltage.

All have continuity that should (igniter, coils, thermal limiter, safety thermostat, thermistor, motor switch, Replace control panel so heater relay has continuity)

Still no voltage to igniter.

No errors in diagnostic mode.

Fixed it. Of all the thermistors I tried only one read 46 ohms, the rest read 10 or below, once 46 ohm went in, igniter lit right up.

Thanks for the update.(y)

But what is your model number?

Click here: Appliance Parts

Then you will see a link that says: How to find a model number.

On the older Kenmore 417 and older Frigidaire dryers you only have ONE thermistor, It should be 50,000 ohms at room temperature(77 degrees).

What other thermistors are you referring too?

Here's the ONE thermistor:
Thermistor 134587700


I posted the thermistor chart here:
