    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.
