My dryer doesn't stay on (only for 1-2 minutes) and a faint rubber smell comes from the back of the dryer. I already replaced the Thermafuse, thinking it was shutting off because of that but now turns off almost immediately. What to do next?

Will the motor run with the belt removed? If it won't, good chance you've got a bad motor, or maybe something in the blower causing a major drag.

If it does, need to see if the drum is in a bind.
