Electric Dryer stopped getting hot, replaced heating element and it is still not getting hot. All breakers are fine, dry is tumbling just not drying. I do not want to just keep ordering parts and replacing until I fine the right one. Also there is no reliable repair person to call where I live. thank you

FSUMOM,

To get this right, you'll need a multimeter,

Part number: AP3873826
Part number: AP3873826


In order to check thermostat circuits and voltages.

You'd want to check and make sure you have 240 VAC, at the dryer teminal block, and through the heater circuit.

You could try bypassing the fuses and thermostats with a jumper wire, or attaching the wires together, until you find the bad part, and the dryer starts to heat . But you need to be careful, and not short anything out, or "zap" yourself.

:) :) :)
