Neptune Drier's flame drops out after 3 minutes or so... Flame sensor?

[Will Webster]

I have a Maytag Neptune dryer MDG 5500 AWW and after just a few minutes of running, the flame drops out. I have used a meter to eliminate the two temp sensors. When I tested the flame sensor, it dropped out as soon as the flame did. I don’t know which one was the cause/effect? Can I bypass the flame sensor to verify that the flame sensor is indeed the problem?

You can by-pass for test purpose ONLY. You probably have weak gas valve coils.

If you have not already seen it here is the service manual for your dryer.
