Our Frigidaire Dryer that is 9 years old has started acting weird. It runs for an hour and a half on high heat, and the cloths are still damp. Medium sized load, cleaneded the lint throughout the unit, and in the exhaust pipe going outside, visiually inspected the heating coil to find no breaks... The coil turns red when running. So I have the thermostat out but am a bit lost in what is what on it. I put the ohm meter on it but still confused. Could it be the moisture sensor? How would I know?:confused:

First open unit up and remove the blower housing and clean the lint out of it. Then verify the that the blower motor is working
