The blower, drum rotation and everything else seems fine, it just won't heat. It has a sound that it makes - kinda like a rattle/spinning sound that lasts about 12-14 seconds, then "clicks" off. This happens every minute or so. Can you get me started in the proper direction for what might be wrong? Actually, if I let is sit for a while, then it will heat, but then after about 3-5 minutes, there is that sound again and then the heat kicks off and won't come back on. Maytags - they just don't make 'em the way they used to! That repair man has plenty to do these days!:(
