My dryer quit working. I’ve traced main power in, power into and out of the selector/timer, and power into and out of the on/off swith. The next component in line is the in-line fuse then the motor, which I can’t get to. I was trying to obtain an exploded view of the dryer so I know what to take apart to get to the components I need to check but have been unsuccessful in locating one. Anyone have any ideas?
In order to access the thermal fuse (#7 on the [B]diagram[/B]), which most likely is the culprit, you have to remove the rear panel.

I replaced the thermostat based on testing the timer and heater out OK. I was advised to advance the timer so it would be just coming out of defrost. I did this about 3pm CST. It is now 11pm CST and the evaporator coils are frosted, except where the thermostat is located. Is that normal. Also, the refrigerator temperature is currently @ 56 degrees. Is that normal? Please help me. Thanks!
You might have frost causing an airflow problem, check for some restriction.
Also, measure the freezer temperature and post.
Next morning the temperature in the refrigerator was 38 degrees!
Everything seems to be working fine now! Thanks!!
