Tested door switch, panel and all seem to have continuity. Belt is on and fits well. Checked breaker and it is not tripped. The dryer is old but I've been able to make repairs with your help. Could use your help again. Sincerely, Brad

Could use your help again. Sincerely, Brad On the blower housing you should see a thermal fuse, if it reads open that will prohibit the unit from starting. If it is open, make sure to clean out all duct work and home venting. Overheating causes it to go bad. Part number: AP3132867
