Admiral dryer not heating - Dryers

Same with either. Low heat just means element doesn’t stay on as long as on high.

It sounds like the heat element is bad. It is touching its metal housing causing it to be grounded. It is supplied with 120 volts so it will stay on. You will need to replace the heat element. In the mean time unplug it or turn the breaker off.

This is a gas dryer so any repairs need to be done by a certified gas technician. The only thing you can do it relight the pilot if it has one. Some have a spark igniter on-demand.

gas dryer check the thermocouple ---electric check the heat element

sounds like the heating element has quit.

The thermostat, timer or the heating element itself are the places to check. Look at the circuit breaker for the dryer in the power panel. It will be two breakers connected together. If one trips but not both, the heating element will not heat but the dryer will run.

It could be the high temp fuse on the element and the timer not turning depends doyou have it on the auto dry because it will not advance if it is not heating because the sensors are not detecting a decrease in the humidity levels because the element not working.

This is very rare on a gas dryer but I have seen it. If you have already replaced all that other stuff I would say it has to be inside the timer. On one I worked on once I could remove that orange wire and the dryer would function ok so I ordered a new timer, they sent me a bad timer. Same problem. I finally got a working timer after going through a bunch of mess. That fixed it. So if all the other components are working it very well could be the timer.
