Dryer will dry two or three loads and then shuts down in mid cycle then I have to wait about 30 min. before it will restart. I checked the exhaust vent and it is clear. I looked inside and saw nothing unusual, could this be the thermostat?? I figure if it’s the fuse it wouldn’t come back on.
what happens when it shuts off, when you try to turn it back on, does it hummmm ??? or nothing at all ?
It does nothing. It’s like it needs to cool down
Sounds like a bad motor. I would remove drum and motor wires and stick 115 volts to pins 4&5 and let run for a time. Check the current draw with an amprobe, should be less than 5 amps.
