It's possible your heat element is burnt out.

SOURCE: Amana electric dryer model LEA30Aw will not heat

The heating element measures 10 Ohms at 68 degrees farenheit. Usually if the element is bad, it will measure infinity.

SOURCE: My dryer wont heat up...It just blows cold air....?????

It may be the thermal fuse but it could also be the heating element. The way to check is to open it up as described above and run the dryer. Watch the element and if it turns on then off again immediately then it is your thermal fuse. That is only about 15 dollars to fix and you can get a new fuse at any appliance repair shop. If the element doesn't ever come on then the element is burnt out and needs to be replaced. This is a little more expensive. I hope this was helpful and if you have any more questions feel free to ask me. Good luck.

Amana electric dryer won't heat up

It can really only be two things.

The element or wiring to it has failed
or
The Thermal fuse has been overheated and cut off power.

Both can be checked with a Digital Multimeter.

If your Amana dryer is not heating, it likely has either a defective heating element, thermal fuse, high-limit thermostat, or cycling thermostat. If you have a gas dryer, it is likely not heating because of a defective gas valve solenoid.

My Amanda dryer model ned4655ew1 shuts down after about 20 minutes. After it cools off it restarts then the same thing happens.

If your Amana dryer shuts down after about 20 minutes and restarts after it cools down, there could be a problem with the thermal fuse, which is designed to prevent the dryer from overheating. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

Check the thermal fuse: Use a multimeter to test the thermal fuse for continuity. If the thermal fuse is blown, replace it with a new one.
Check the dryer vent: A clogged or restricted dryer vent can cause the dryer to overheat and shut down. Clean the dryer vent to remove any lint or debris.
Check the cycling thermostat: The cycling thermostat controls the temperature inside the dryer. If it's not working properly, it could cause the dryer to overheat. Test the thermostat for continuity and replace it if necessary.
Check the heating element: A broken or defective heating element can cause the dryer to overheat. Use a multimeter to test the heating element for continuity.

If none of these steps resolves the issue, it's best to contact a professional technician to diagnose and repair the problem.

Hello Fixya, I just moved and my new place has an amana 120-V Gas Dryer, that turns but won't heat. Ignition would bes suspect #1. Any great ideas? Thanks much, Rob

Hi, If you are having problems with your gas dryer not heatingthe most common problem is that the ignitor goes bad. Even though it glowssometimes it is still not working properly. if you dryer is gas check out this gas no heat tip....
