On all dryers, the door switch allows the dryer to start tumbling only when the door is closed. If the dryer does not start when the door is closed then the door switch may be defective. In most brands of dryers, the switch is located behind the front panel with the switch button protruding into the door opening. The switch and can be tested with a multi-tester for continuity and it may have two or more terminals. The test should be made between the terminals marked "C" and "NO" and should read "0" ohms when the door is closed or the button is depressed The thermal fuse is a safety device found in some dryers to prevent overheating. It is a heat sensitive fuse and will open if the temperature becomes too hot and will typically interrupt power to the drive motor and cause the dryer to be inoperable. The thermal fuse is about an inch or more long and normally embedded in a white plastic housing. Some brands of dryers use more than one thermal fuse, and they are normally located on the blower housing and/ or the heating element housing in an electric dryer and/or the burner housing on a gas dryer. The fuse will not have any continuity when tested with a multi-meter. Disconnect power to the dryer before testing the fuse
Hi,
If you are having problems with your gas dryer not heatingthe most common problem is that the ignitor goes bad. Even though it glowssometimes it is still not working properly.
if you dryer is gas check out this gas no heat tip....
If you have an electric dryer, you can have many differentthings that can go wrong causing the dryer not to heat.
check outthis electric no heat tip...
All I can figure is that your timer points are shorted at that place in it. Reason being is, the cool down turns your element off. If it turned things on, what ever it turned on would be the problem but with it turning things off, it tells me it's a bad timer. Also it's blowing the breaker at the same place in the timer. Sorry but I diagnose it as being the timer and they are not cheap.
Just in case, try this. Check you element. Make sure it's not broken. I have seen them broken and they would work until they got hot. When they got hot enough they would warp and touch the housing, blowing the breaker. What ever it is, your looking for a dead short. That is all that would be blowing a new 30 amp breaker and nothing other than the dryer operating off of that circuit
