It’s tumbling but no heat.
Thermal fuse and thermostats show continuity.
The igniter reads 83, a little low. (50-400)
The coils test well, except the three prong reads 569 on the outer two terminals. (300-2000) Still within spec but...

Non heating WP Built Gas Dryer

Is there voltage at the gas burner ? if yes

 

Does the igniter heat ? If no the heat sensor is probably open.

 

If the igniter heats and cycles off on the heat sensor in about a minute you have a bad set of valve coils, Replace valve coils.

 

There is a very small chance you have a bad gas valve, although this seldom happens on a WP built dryer, 90% of the bad gas valves we see are on MT dryers.

 

Also I am assuming you have gas at the valve assembly.
