Thermal Fuse
The control board is attempting to start the motor, indicated by the 'click' sound, but an open circuit prevents power from reaching the motor. A failed thermal fuse acts as a safety cutoff, creating this open circuit and preventing the drum from spinning. This specific model (DVE50R5400V/A3) is known to have multiple thermal safety devices, and a common oversight is missing one during initial troubleshooting. The motor will not receive power if this fuse is open.

High-Limit Thermostat
Similar to the thermal fuse, the high-limit thermostat is a thermal safety device designed to open the circuit if temperatures exceed a safe threshold. If this component has failed and created an open circuit, the motor will not receive power, resulting in the 'click' sound from the control board attempting to engage the motor relay without success.

Motor
While the motor was initially tested and believed to be functional, a 'click' without spinning can sometimes indicate a seized motor or a motor struggling to start. However, given the primary diagnosis of an open thermal safety circuit, the motor itself is less likely to be the direct cause of the 'click and no spin' symptom if it was previously tested as good.
