Kenmore Dryer not heating

I have a Kenmore model 417.92142101. It will heat up when cold (first start), but will not heat up after the burner shuts down. The igniter lights up, but it will not fire. I've done continuity tests, and all are okay. I have good air flow and the vent and pipe are both clean.
Where do I go from here?

Welcome to the forums.

That's a Kelvinator (Frigidaire) manufactured unit. Fairly common problem with gas dryers.

You need to replace the coil set on the gas valve. OEM part # 5303931775
That would be under the Burner/valve tab and is pictorial part 72 in the list and on the diagram.
