  • dryer not heating

    kenmore dryer.

    Drum turns, but no heat.

    Checked voltage at outlet. 220.
    Relaced heating element, thermal fuse and thermostat. Still no heat. Coils don't even glow.

    Dryer is about 2 years old.

    No clogs in vent hose.

    Any ideas?

    tyboy63,

    Welcome to the forum.

    The only thing left to check is the timer isn't it? Have you tried another setting, manual instead of automatic for example?

    Or if you have a switch for delicate / perm press?

    Good luck, Jim

          It was the high temp cutoff thermostat.

          All in all, I spent about $60.

          less than it costs for Sears just to show up.
