Mjssilvia4 - on some modles there are sometimes another high heat protector on the
Blower duct;; #1- check you lint screen for clogging <the vent hose for lint clogging <check the through wall duct and the flapper doors on the out side for jamedor clogged with lint: check the air duct also for lint clogging::
#2 ity could be another heat protector that is defective; they shut the heating element off very quick if the temp. Reaches a certain degree,that is high; iif there is another one ,it will be on the air duct;; the thermostat switch may be bad also and causeing your trouble;; check out what I have siusgested and if it don't work <come back on this post and will go with other causes:: good luck and have a nice day and god bless:: f.b.e.
