You may have a problem with the igniter.

Check to see if the ingitor is glowing.

If it glows and does not light the burner it is likely weak and will have to be replaced.

If you give the igniter a little tap and the burner lights replace the igniter.

If it does not light it could be the valve.

Here is a link to your dryer model MDG9206AWW.

Here is the igniter.

It could also be the high lomit thermostat mounted on the burner assembly. If uou have a ohm meter, take 1 wire off of it, ans check for continuity. If you need the thermostat, the part # is 303395 Tom ApplianceEducator.com
