Sounds like your problem may be with the heating coil. If you plan to try to repair the problem yourself, then the first thing you want to do is unplug the dryer from the electric. Remove the back of the machine and try to locate the air tube going from the blower to the drum. Normally inside the air tube you will find the heating coil and the thermostats/thermistor. Once you have located the heating coil, remove the two wires from it and check the coil with an ohm meter across the two terminals of the coil. You should read continuity across the terminals, if not you will need to replace the coil as it is faulty. Good Luck, Hope this helps

I have to leave the door open to stop it. If it is something that is not disconnecting, I would be happy to cut the buzzer out of the circuit completely. I have a separate timer that I can use instead. Sears said the part to fix it would be $110. Bought in 95 Model 85631.
