Electric dryer will not start

Model Number: pyet244ayw Brand: Maytag Age: 1 - 5 years

Appliance Parts from AppliancePartPros.com

Dryer will not start. Do not have ohm meter. Would likely cause be the thermal fuse or the timer /push button itself ?

part number is AP415996 ( thermal kit)
I suggest replacing them all but you can just replace the bad one and use the others later if needed.
