Parts are in stock

This is the dryer hi-limit thermostat for the heating unit. total cost for replacement was a little over $20.This is the inside view with front cover and the drum removed. The tube on the right is the intake and where the heating elements are located. The ait enters the front of the tube and is drawn into the dryer drum by means of the blower on the lower left. The blower is more of a vacuum which draws air through the drum, the lint filter, and then finally is blown out the back of the unit. You can see my screwdriver kit on the floor in front of the unit.Disassembled the dryer. It was rather full of debris. Considering it is about 12 years old and never been opened up, it was impressive. The cleaning took as long as the tool work.

The problem is the high-limit thermostat on the heating unit failed. There is a parts store in Milford that has it in stock, so I am going over there now. It was either $24.95 online and a two day minimum wait, or get it now for $20.00, so I getting it now.
