Kenmore stackable washer dryer 417.12510. Still NO Heat
If your Kenmore stackable washer dryer model 417.12510 is not producing heat, there may be a problem with the heating element or with the control system of the dryer. Here are a few steps you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
- Check the dryer's manual for any specific troubleshooting steps or error codes that may be relevant to the issue you are experiencing.
- Make sure that the dryer's lint filter is clean and unobstructed. A clogged lint filter can cause problems with the heating element.
- Check the heating element for any visible signs of damage or wear. If the element is damaged, it will need to be replaced.
- If the heating element appears to be in good condition, there may be a problem with the control system of the dryer. In this case, it will likely be necessary to have a qualified technician inspect the machine to diagnose the problem and recommend the necessary repairs.
I hope this information is helpful. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there is anything else I can assist with.
Kenmore Dryer Model 110.86870100. Air Dry cycle heats up. It should only use cool air. Whats wrong?
If the Air Dry cycle on your appliance is heating up instead of using only cool air, there could be several possible causes. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
- Check the controls: Make sure the controls are set to the Air Dry cycle and that the temperature is set to cool. If the controls are not set correctly, it could cause the cycle to heat up.
- Check for a clogged air vent: If the air vent is clogged, it can cause the cycle to heat up. Check the air vent and clean it if it is clogged.
- Check for a malfunctioning thermostat: The thermostat may be malfunctioning, causing the cycle to heat up. Check the thermostat and replace it if it is not functioning properly.
- Check for other issues: There could be other issues with the appliance, such as a malfunctioning heating element or a problem with the wiring. In this case, it is best to seek the help of a qualified appliance repair technician who can diagnose and fix the problem.
I hope this information is helpful. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, don't hesitate to ask.
Kenmore He5 electric dryer error code F01
The F-01 error code means that the thermistor has failed. The dryer 'thinks' that the thermistor is open when, in fact, the part has shorted out. The thermistor is designed to read and control the temperatures within the dryer. When this part is faulty, your Kenmore dryer will no longer work. You can locate this part near the bottom of the dryer, next to the exhaust.
My dyer Kenmore MODEL 110.87511702 is not heating.
There could be a number of reasons why your Kenmore dryer is not heating. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
- Check the thermostat. The thermostat controls the dryer's heat. If the thermostat is not functioning properly, the dryer may not heat. Check the thermostat and replace it if necessary.
- Check the heating element. The heating element is responsible for generating the heat in the dryer. If the heating element is not working, the dryer will not heat. Check the heating element and replace it if necessary.
- Check the dryer vent. If the dryer vent is clogged or blocked, it can cause the dryer to not heat properly. Check the dryer vent and make sure it is clear of any obstructions.
- Check the power supply. Make sure the dryer is receiving power. Check the outlet and circuit breaker to ensure that the dryer is getting electricity.
I hope these suggestions help! If you have checked all of these things and the dryer is still not heating, it is possible that there is another issue causing the problem. I recommend having a mechanic diagnose the problem in order to determine the cause and recommend the appropriate repair. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Kenmore DDOT-ELE-2406024-EL54 - How do you open it up to clean it out?
That is a strange model number for a Kenmore! Watch all of these videos and most of it will make sense.
Normally you loosen the top console (don't remove) where the controls are and remove the top of the body. Then you undo the screws at the front bottom kick plate and carefully remove the front panel with the door attached. Be careful that you don't tear off the wires to the door switch. You now have access to the insides. You can now go as far or as little as you wish. There is a blower and the heater box, the motor and and an idler wheel with the drive belt. The parts to get rid of the squeak is the Idler pulley, the front drum slides or rollers and the bearing at the rear centre of the drum. Don't lubricate with WD40, use 3-in-One or similar machine oil.
Finally, the 'external ventilation' is the rear hose, the pipe through the wall and the vent with flaps outside. The best type of hose is the shortest one, and aluminium or smooth metal. The plastic ones block with fluff.
The videos are for 'replacing the belt' but that gets you to the place where you need to be.

How to hook up kenmore dryer
Hi
if this is a dryer built for another country, I would highly recommend getting a professional to install the dryer for you as the current/voltage would be different and could be a fi re hazard. Or you could work with the Philippines consolette to find a local handyman from the Philippines that's accustomed to performing these types of installations in your country.
Thank you.
Kenmore Elite Oasis dryer model 110.67042600 thermal fuse location
Another possible reason why your Kenmore Elite Oasis dryer model 110.67042600 won't start is because the door switch is defective. The door switch is located on the door of the dryer. To check the door switch:
1. Unplug the dryer from the wall outlet.
2. Open the door of the dryer.
3. Locate the door switch on the door of the dryer.
4. Use a multimeter to test the door switch for continuity.
If the door switch is defective, it will need to be replaced.

Kenmore Elite HE3 Dryer giving PF code only when motor is plugged in.
Hi,
This sounds like a power failure error. It happens when power flow is not occurring properly to your machine. You'll need to press the cancel button 2 or 3 times before the error is wiped away. If it comes back, please have your machine serviced. You can call kenmore to help with this by dialing 1-844-553-6667.
Thank you.
