The dryer will not heat up. Has anyone had experience with this? The tech who fixed it before said it was a simple thing. The blower works, heating element doesnt get power.

any help and assistance taking this apart would be helpful.
Thanks in advance

On the back of the unit there is a thermal fuse. White, totally plastic, and totally encased (cannot remove the fuse from a holder), with two wires on it. With the power off, disconnect the two wires and check continuity. It's a $5 part, if that much.
