Started the dryer before bed and was still going the next morning. Now it wont start. Its just over 2 years old and I'm pretty mad.

The first thing I would do is check the thermal fuse (#7 on the diagram) for continuity. If this fuse is blown then you have to replace it together with the cycling thermostat (#8). In such situation I would also make sure the vent line is clean all the way to the outlet and all air ducts inside the dryer are clean as well.

- The part number for the thermal fuse is AP3132867

- The part number for the cycling thermostat is AP3131939
