So our dryer stopped heating. Did some research on what the problems could be. The most likely thing was that the thermal fuse went out. Disassembled the dryer which was not hard and tested it and found it was bad. I went to the local appliance store and got a new one…$30 bucks! I installed it and the dryer worked for 2 loads…then stopped heating again. Did more research and found that the actual reason it was blowing was the dryer thermistor was actually the reason the thermal fuse was blowing. When I tested it there was about 14 ohms. TOO HIGH! Discovered that the ohms at room temp should be at 10. Ordered parts on line this time because I was not going to overpay and installed the new parts. The dryer is now fixed! So if your thermal fuse goes out and the vent is clear, the heating element is not broken or touching the metal box it sits in and the temp switch is working….replace the thermistor also. I am not a dryer mechanic but I watched some youtube videos to accomplish this task. It was easy and saved a ton of money.
