Dryer would not heat up
I found this site and it seemed that the 'one-time thermal fuse" seemed to work for most people. I found a diagram of the dryer on this site also so I knew where to find the fuse. I took the back off and replaced the fuse and the dryer works fine. Most posts I have seen here did not seem to know why the fuse went. In our case, I noticed t hat we neglected to empty the lint trap after more than a couple cycles (we are usually very good about keeping it clean). My theory is that created built up heat which blew the fuse (thus preventing a fire!). I am very glad this fuse did it's job and the dryer works fine after replacing the fuse.

Dryer not heating
This was awesome! I rent a townhouse and don't know anything about fixing dryers, and maintenance in general since I've never owned anything. Our dryer broke -- it would spin but not heat at all. Our landlord... can be difficult... so I decided to Google the problem to see if it looked like something I could fix. This site let me inpu t the problem and came back with parts + probability + instructions to fix the problem! So, I bought a multi-meter from Home Depot and used it to figure out that my Cycling Thermostat and Thermal Fuse were not functioning. I ordered these parts from this site and it only took ~10 minutes to install them. The dryer has worked great ever since!

Dryer not heating
Did some research online and via YouTube with "Dryer not heating" as my search.I got a lot of hits and watched a few videos.Tested the fuses with an ohmmeter and found that the thermal fuse was bad. Swapped out the bad for a good fuse and dryer worked! Since I had ordered the other fuses I just want ahead and installed fearing that the re ason the thermal fuse blew was because the other fuses were going bad. The longest part of the repair was moving the unit out of the closet to access the back panel. A rather easy fix and big $$$ saver if you DIY.

Replaced the thermal fuse it was easy , checked the old fuse with a volt meter did a continuity check and voltage on all limit switches had voltage on the limits but when I got to the fuse there was no voltage. So I purchased the themal fuse and replaced it and works better. Thanks for the possible scenarios in trouble shooting and it was only 20 dollars. with shipping total , saved me 900.00 by not having to purchase a new stackable washer and dryer.thanks again
