My dryer won't start. I have cleared all the lint from every area in the dryer. I have replaced the thermal fuse, thermostat next to the fuse. I have also replaced the hi and low thermostats on the heating element housing. The dryer will not start. Prior to replacing the listed parts I have performed continuity tests on the door switch, start switch and all of the thermostats and the fuses. The dyer light turns on and the "on" switch loads when energized. Any suggestions for next steps would be greatly appreciated. I thought of the timer (I had mixed readings during testing) and also ensuring that I have two phases (220) feeding the dryer.

thanks,

The only one that will effect starting is the thermal fuse on the blower (Item 59 in Section 3)

Prior to replacing the listed parts I have performed continuity tests on the door switch, start switch and all of the thermostats and the fuses. The dyer light turns on and the "on" switch loads when energized.
By " the on switch loads" I am assuming you mean that the start relay does energize and stays energized after the button is released.
I noticed you did not include the belt switch (Item 5 in Section 2). Looks like this comes as a kit so it may be a problem part.

Unplug the unit.
Set the timer to mid cycle timed dry, wrinkle guard off.
Then check the BK/BU and T/W timer contacts.
Both should be 0 ohms.
Be sure that you remove the wires from one side of the contacts you are checking. This ensures that you do not read an alternate/parallel circuit path.
If both are OK
Measure from the blue wire at the Start relay (the ione that goes to the thermal fuse) and connector W on the timer. This should be 1 to 2 ohms (the motor windings).
