I had this same problem a few months back.
If you go to parts select.com you can find schematics for this machine.
the first thing I would check is the thermal fuse, It is located in the back of the machine. remove the back cover, the fuse is located near the lower middle.
unpluge it check it with a continuity tester. if it is bad you can put a jumper wire in till you get the part.
if the fuse checks out check the gas valve coil (2 prong).this can be checked with a continuity tester also.
