Hello,
My Dryer will not start, it worked yesterday but it kept cutting off while in the cycle. It is getting hot. I replaced the thermal fuse and still nothing. How do I test the start switch, I took the wires out but not sure what to do after that. I checked the door switch but it is fine, the door is closing. I don't know what else to do, please HELP!!:(

Dryer does not appear to be getting any power put the two fuse together for start button, no sparks!!

It sounds like your motor is getting hot and cutting off. You might want to clear the vent and clean all the lint out of the dryer (You'll be amazed at how much lint bypasses the lint screen that you clean with each load). Also, while you'te replacing thermostats, it is recommended that you replace them all as a group (this is only a suggestion to keep you from continously having to re-enter the cabinet to replace parts).
