Bearing failure --thermal sensor failure
SOURCE: My dryer is overheating, causing my thermal to
All dryer heat functions are controlled by thermostats:
Check all thermostats and make sure they all are lint and dust free, if problem continues, change the high limit thermostat which is the unit that controls high temperature and might be defective.
GOOD LUCK!
SOURCE: Maytag performa Keeps blowing Thermal Fuse. Vents
something is still plugged with lint,if the vent line is long blow it out with a leaf blower to clean it out,you have to clean out the duct that the lint filter slides into,if the filter is on top remove the vent line,remove the back panel,remove the lint filter and the two screws in front of it and remove the four screws and clean out the duct,if the filter is in front take off the bottom panel,remove the filter and clean the duct,also vac out the inside of dryer where the motor is,when the dryer gets to hot the thermal fuse pops as a safety so you still have a block somewhere
SOURCE: Maytag dryer is less than 3 years old. Blew
Have you tried replacing the operating thermastat it's what shuts it off at the right temp and would cause the thermal fuse to go if it is not shuting.off at the right temp. It happens.
Hope this helps.
