Default Clothes Dryer Heat Turns On/Won't Stay On
Model Number: FDG546RES2   Brand: Frigidaire   Age: 5 - 10 years   

can anyone I will appreciate help with troubleshooting my clothes dryer problem. The heat is slow in turning on and then after being on just a few minutes (or seconds), the heat goes off and I hear a rattling sound in the back of the dryer. I then turn the heat setting to air fluff/no heat. If I wait about 10 minutes, I can return the heat setting to ON and it will re-heat for a few more seconds (or minutes) before the heat cuts-off again. This is the only way I can dry my clothes now. I need help in narrowing down my choices of whixh part(s) to replace. And, I would like to do the job myself, if I can--eventhough this will be my first time working on a dryer. I would be very grateful if someone could get back with me no later than Monday morning (Dec 24th.)
Blessings on you and yours.

---R. McNutt

Sounds like you have a bad blower in the dryer and the dryer is not even venting air, just check.
