Hi,
My Kenmore/Whirlpool electric dryer recently burned up the high heat-sensing thermostat (the one attached to the side of the heating element). One of the wires blackened, and the connector attachment disintegrated, as if from arcing. I replaced the heating element itself about a year ago, so I'm not sure the two events are related. It's an old dryer. Is there more to worry about here, or is it likely that this could have happened from "old age" and normal processes.
Thanks,
