I heard a click as if it was going to turn back on and then nothing.

It's the second time it has done this recently and may have done this a few times in past year.

Last week when it did this I disconnected the vent to see if it was clogged. My outside vent louvres are blowing out so I know the extension isn't clogged.

So i flipped breaker off in basement and back on and it started working but that did not work this time. Last time it was long after it stopped so maybe cool down lets it start again???
It doesn't even seem that hot in drum because it was on cool down anyways.

Yea based on what I read that sounds about right. One post I saw said maybe clean around the motor to see if buildup is making it over heat.
I noticed the motor and sensor is the biggest cost to replace it seems.

Looks like it's disposable at this point since it's 18 years old and i only paid $90 for it. Well , it lasted 4 years.

Guess I'll get another disposable for $100.
