    Gas dryer stopped heating..help!

    Gas dryer does everything right except it blows cold air. It's a Kenmore about 7 years old. It was working fine yesterday morning. Last night it just quit heating up.

    I don't know anything about dryers so any help is appreciated!

    Thanks!

      Well...it ended up being the thermal fuse. I thought that it was the ignitor so I replaced that first. That was a waste of money but not necessarily of time. I did learn a lot. Nevertheless, it's fixed.

      Kactuskid, thanks for your reply! The information was helpful!
