You can run a jumper wire between the ground and the neutral(common) connection on the back of the dryer.


Bridging the neutral and ground at the outlet is against code. That is because if the neutral becomes disconnected between the outlet and box at any point, the ground circuit will becom energized, just waiting for a path to ground. Do not do this.
