Hi ktomkow,

Is your dryer making any odd noises??

If no strange sounds are present and the drum is not on a bind, if you can, check the heating element and see if it is touching the housing that it is contained in. There is a chance that the element is arcing and causing the short that is blowing the fuse.

With age many heating elements will sag and touch places that it should not.

Best of luck and congrats on the baby..... I raised 5 of 'em.
