Morning all!

So we've had this LG dryer and washer for about 10 years. About 2 weeks ago the dryer stopped heating up. I took it apart, did the continuity tests on the thermostats and found that the upper limit therm had tripped. I replaced it and the replacement lasted a few hours. I then decided to look at the vent line. I did find a dead bird in there and thought that was it. Replaced the thermostat again and it too only lasted a few hours.

Last night I did the flow test that the dryer has built into it and it was fine.

I'm at a loss here. The dryer is electric BTW.

Thoughts??

Thanks for the help!
