I have replaced every part that applies to the heating of my dryer except my timer, I had all the parts i replaced checked and the only part that was bad was the thermal fuse but that didn't solve my problem so i went and replaced all the other except the timer and not sure i can afford a new timer. Any suggestions or options?
SOURCE: either the thermal fuse or the ignitor on my kenmore elite gas dr
Remove the lower front cover - it has spring-loaded keepers that can be gently pryed and the panel should either hinge down or pop off. The thermal fuse and ignitor are behind this panel.

you can check them all with an ohms meter but i think it is the thermal fuse at the top of the heater box that is bad-mike

Yes. If the thermal fuse has no continuity, then the fuse is bad. Replacing it should get you back in action, barring any other defective items like the heating element, etc. Best wishes.

you need to by a meter to read out the parts that could be bad.most likely it's the ignitor from the parts you said you've already changed but just unplug the dryer unplug the ignitor put your meter on say 20k it doesn't matter,touch the leads to the ignitor wires inside the plastic connector and if it stays on 1 it's bad if you get a reading any reading except 1 it's good that's it,if it is good check the thermal fuse,you have to pull at least one of the wires off to get the correct reading,if that's good check the sensor,hopefully it will be one of these parts,if it's a timer,motor, or gas valve you might want to replace the dryer depending on how old and what shape it's in,good luck,if you need any more help let me know
