Now the adjustable cycling thermostat needs to be changed. Would that have messed up the other parts that I have already replaced if it got to hot? Its an older style whirlpool dryer. Everything is in the back panel.

Model Number Locator Also I do not know what "regular thermostat" relates to. Sorry but I have to disagree with Jagsmaned. A cycling thermostat that is shot can cause the unit to overheat. The hi-limit then regulates the heat although it is overly hot. The hi-limit is a safety device and is not designed to cycle forever so eventually it fails. Then the thermal cut-off which is basically a thermal fuse blows as it is a back up to the hi-limit.
