If voltage to ignitor during cycle bad ignitor if no voltage check high limits
Have you checked the flame sensor? There is a safety flame sensor monitoring that there the unit is keeping a burning flame or the gas valve shuts off. Most lack of heat in dryers is caused by a bad igniter coil or a bad flame sensor. Check both. Igniter coil can be checked with a meter or carefully powered momentarily on a workbench. Fire hazard - don’t leave it turned on.
Have you checked the relay for the igniter and confirmed there is power to the igniter?

You may want to disconnect the vent from the back of the dryer and try it. Flame rollback will cycle the burner off by the high limit.
Considering what you have already done to it, if the problem still exists you probably have bad coils on the gas valve. make sure you replace them as a set.
The thermal fuse is a one time device. If it opens, the burner will not come on at all.
SOURCE: dryer flame goes on and then off
lgr4634eq3 model runs but does not heat. The ignitor goes on and the flame starts but goes out after about a minute. Any suggestions
You have a bad flame sensor. Replace it.

Yes, I just changed thermal fuse on the same model . . . take off the front door, the front panel and there it is; attached to the vent tube with a flimsy bracket

Hello,
The problem is going to be that coils on the gas valve.It is pretty common for the coils to open gas valve when cool but once dryes runs and the coils heat up they will not open gas valve. the coils are the black plastic parts on the gas valve held down by a bracket, one has 2 wires the other has 3 wires in the plug on them. To replace them remove bracket over top of them(dont worry the bracket that says dont grip is for when dryer is plugged in you will be potentially shocked if gripping when plugged in but to repair when unplugged no danger)pull off of the plug and install the new ones,the bracket has a notch and the coils have a corosponding tab they interlock to positon coils correctly.
The part # for the kit that contains both coils is 279834 and sold for under $20.00 from your local appliance parts store on online at;

I hope this will help you to repair your dryer,
