Post the results. Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for AMANA HE5003 \| AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.

We discovered the dryer has 3 thermostats and we only replaced one. One is still avaliable and the third one is no longer available. So out dryer huntng we went--we found a brand new Maytag with some scratch and dents for less than $280! God is good:)
