I have a dryer that has blown the thermal fuse a couple times. It also seems as though the timer is not advancing. If the timer does not advance, will that potentially result in the fuse opening?

No that will not cause the thermal fuse to blow. The cause is an obstructed vent, weather the vent is actually obstructed with lint in the hose or at the exit point or in the hose is to long and bunched up. The vent needs to be clear and straight as possible for the dryer not to build up excessive heat and blow the fuse. The timer not advancing may be because of the fuse.
