Dryer Thermal Fuse
The thermal fuse is a safety mechanism located on the blower housing. If the exhaust temperature exceeds limits (usually due to a clogged vent), the fuse blows and breaks the electrical circuit to the drive motor, preventing the dryer from starting.

Dryer Door Switch
The door switch provides a continuity signal to the main control board indicating the door is securely closed. If the internal contact or plastic lever fails, the board will not trigger the motor relay, resulting in a dryer that powers on but won't start tumbling.

Drive Motor
The motor is responsible for spinning the drum and blower wheel. If the internal start winding or the centrifugal switch fails, the motor cannot initiate rotation, even if it receives the correct voltage from the control board.
