Not exactly a fuse for drying heat, the electric motor would have a thermal fuse strapped into the winding. The dryer exhaust hot air chimney, just after the drum, would have both a thermostat and a high heat limit called thermodisk cut off and clixon by trade name. Find the wiring diagram inside the dryer panels to reveal color wires going to what you need finding.
Since the start relay is clicking it is likely closing the circuit and sending voltage to the dryer motor. You may have a defective thermal limiter fuse blown, it is near the dryer motor so you must remove the back or front of the dryer to access it for testing. Always unplug the dryer before any work is done. You will need a DVOM meter (about $10.00) to check the fuse for continuity.
