I have continuity through the thermal fuse, cycling switch, and high limit switch. I also have it through the heat coil and the block that is attached to the heat element contact. The coil is not grounded to the case. I have tried running it w/ the purple wires on the cycling switch unpluged and w/them jumped together, no change. I tried unpluging the moisture sensor to make sure it's not ending an off signal. W/ the dryer running I measure 220v at both heater contacts w/ one lead on the white wire at the main block where the power comes into the dryer. W/ power going to the heater element it seems like it would have to be bad, but there is no sign of an open.

After reading a few posts I took the drum out, started the dryer, wiggled the switch at the moter and got heat. Bad centfifical switch, or something that needs cleaning? Will have to see if it's servicable.
