11 year old kenmore elite gas drye stopped working initial diagnosis: burner would light but would shut off in 3 or 4 minutes Jay W. • Dallas , TX • April 05, 2015

- Access the thermostat (commonly on the blower housing); remove the necessary panel(s)
- Transfer wires one at a time to the new thermostat and mount it flat against the housing
- Reassemble, verify clear venting/airflow, and run a test cycle

Heat was too high Douglas S. • Mesa , AZ • May 17, 2015
I went ahead and ordered the element, and the 2 different thermostats not knowing exactly which one might be the problem. My My Maytag opens from the front and it was actually pretty easy to get into. Also gave me the opportunity to vacuum out the inside of the dryer. Pop the top off, remove the wires that connect the door switch (noting the colors and placement), take off the 2 inside nuts that hols the fron on, pull it forward and lift it off, 3 inside screws to take out to inside lint part...
