Question Dryer heats 5 sec then shuts off
Brand: Kenmore

Age: More than 10 years

Of course after I washed three loads the dryer stopped working yesterday Here's the scoop, I checked for lint - none, checked to see if the pilot (electric) comes on - yepper, checked for flame - yep except it turns off after about 5 seconds. Timer or something else?
