Where are the Thermal fuses for Amana dryer ALE443RAW

SOURCE: thermal fuse keeps blowing

they will blow if the heat dont get out of the dryer and builds up inside / check and see if vent hose behind dryer is kinked or vent going outside is open / it will be one of those two.

SOURCE: Amana dryer ignitor lights, sometimes gas catches,sometimes not

I have the An Amana commercial quality stainless dryer and mine just started doing the same exact thing. he replaced the ignitor and nothing. Now they say the gas valve needs replacing, $150-$200. He told me it looked like the roller were starting to wear and the dryer is coming towards the end of life and maybe I should look for a new one, that is B.S. My dryer is 6 years old and we only have 2 people in the house so it gets used about 2-3 time per week. I also have an Amana washer that matches (commercial stainless) and the drain pump and drum seal already went out in that last year. My diagnosis is Amana is JUNK!!! I am going to buy G.E. or something non Maytag/Amana from now on!

I just replaced mine by taking the bottom off, but in hindsight I think I should have been able to do it by just removing the lower front panel. With long arms, you should be able to reach back and loosen the two bolts holding it in place. Good luck!
