    Maytag Dryer Breaker trips
    Maytag dryer PYE4500AYW keeps tripping breaker. Will start and run about 5 minutes. Problem started after the thermal fuse had to be replaced. Since then also replace the element and the snap switch above the element. Still tripping breaker. I have noticed that the element used to turn off during the cycle but it is not doing that now. Anyone have suggestions?
