Won't heat up

If it won't heat it will be either the heating element or the thermostat or the control board.

MY DRYER WON'T HEAT.

This is usually caused by a blown thermal cut-off which blows and cuts power to the heating element due to the failure of the high limit-thermostat to cycle off and regulate the heating element temperature. Check the dryer for clogged lint screen and/or restricted vent system then replace both thermostats when either of them has failed. Both are located on the blower housing.

Dryer will not get hot. All the vents are clean.

Check for burnt out heating element and electrical connections to element and thermostats. If okay check all thermostats, operating and high limit, with an ohm meter. All must be in closed position. If element,thermostats,and electrical connections good then check timer.

Dryer all is working but not heating

Hi!

First of all please check the thermal fuse. If it is out okay (by-passed or tested with an ohmmeter), then check the heating element. This can be checked by removing one of the wires on the heater and testing it with an ohmmeter. Or,removing the element and visually inspecting it.

Thanks
