My Kenmore electric dryer won't start. I have replaced the timer and push-to-start button, which did not fix the problem. I just ordered a thermal fuse and cycling thermostat, which I am hoping will be the solution. If that does not work, what next? Replace the motor, call someone to service, or put the dryer out of it's misery?
Thanks.

Blown thermal fuse is one of the most common cause of such problem. I also would recommend to clean all vents inside and outside the dryer.
