The dryer appears to be working normally including variable heat levels, moisture sensing, timed drying, plays the completion chime, even powers off the control panel, but the motor continues to run. Anybody have some guesses as to my culprit component?

It provides 90 minutes of tumbling after end of cycle to prevent wrinkling. If it's off, looks like a faulty control board.
