My dryer heating element will not cut off during cool down cycle. First, the dryer stopped running so I changed the timer, still did not work, then I changed the thermal fuse. It worked now but heating element would not cut off. Five weeks later the thermal cut off went out, changed that with the thermostat on the heating element. The dryer heating element still will not cut off. I checked the resistance and it has a reading off 10.5 just like the wire diagram says. Any help on what could still be the problem.
