I just cleaned those sensors at the bottom of the filter, it worked like a charm. The dryer is now drying perfectly, I did not know you were not supposed to use fabric sheets with this dryer. Now I know, Thank you for the good information.

Check thermistors. Two in heating chamber and one or two in fan housing. Clean surfaces and check for continuity.

AJ...the only thing that is going to cause this is a blocked vent or pinched vent hose. You need to make sure that all the venting is clear to the outside.

Check temperature sensor it may can damage if its need to replace

there is no reset button, but unplugging might help

Clean out the area where the lint screen goes in to. The sensor may be dirty. You should be able to get a swiffer duster down in it. If you have a air compressor, you can try blowing it out too. Check your exhaust hose, it may be kinked plugged. If there isn;t anything blocking it , check your manual for a reset switch in case it has one. If all is good and the light won't turn off, I would put a piece of tape over it to hide it. Last resort is the repair man

Hey GOD IS GOOD !!!! Electric dryer no start does nothing Check dryer Terminal block prongs both outside prongs should give combined 220, and 110 each if u check 1 outside & 1 center (ground) prong. Also check house electrical outlet for full voltage. CHECK THERMAL SHUT OFF THERMOSTAT USUALLY LOCATED ON THE BLOWER. for OHMS or resistance with a meter. Should show a closed circuit. Ohms WHEN THIS FUSE BLOWS IT WILL SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING. NEXT Test the PUSH start switch with meter for OHMS. Should show OHMS when pushed in or on start, and no ohms or infinity when in off position. If you hear a humming/clicking sound from motor area you more than likely have a bad motor. Try this test out to see if u have weak windings or relay/capacitor on motor. Open the dryer door and turn by hand the drum while machine is on ON position. And you or someone else presses the door engagement switch in. If it starts up then u have bad windings Another thing to check is the belt safety switch. With a multi meter. Especially if u just replaced the belt. The belt safety switch is attached to the Tensioner and motor. IT LOOKS LIKE A DOOR SWITCH SOMEWHAT a little black pc of plastic with 2 prongs going into it. Sits at bottom of motor. Under the Tensioner. Attach meter clips to the 2 prongs on switch, Then when the little white push button is pressed in it should show continuity and none when released. Lastly check ur DOOR SWITCH for continuity with a meter when the button is pushed in the (on/Door closed position,) it may have gone bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTRP6kHqAFs

the counter weight might be loose or the load balancing hydraulic arm is bent or leaking or you left a brick in the dryer, it will have to be opened an run while watching it likely.

check the drum belt it may be broken.

I do not recommend doing that.You should buy a conversion kit and that will have the necessary parts.the reason i say that is that if the tank pressure regulator fails it would be a fire hazard and may allow tank pressure to the valve.The propane spring in the kit is just a stronger spring than the natural gas one and will only allow a certain pressure to the valve.

replace solenoid

Hi Frank , sounds like you need to clean out your dryer vents . GOOD LUCK APPLIANCES R EN
