The dryer wont heat but does tumble We replaced the thermostats but that didnt work. So we are tryin to figure out how to test whether the problem is the heater or any fuses? Please Help!!!!!!!!!

Hello,

First and foremost, make sure you have 240 volts coming out of the electrical outlet. The dryer needs 240 volts to for heat. If you only have 120 volts, the dryer will run and not heat. If that checks out, remove the back panel and ohm test the heater element for continuity. Make sure you have at least one wire off the element when you check it. Also, make sure the dryer is unplugged. If your looking at the back of the dryer the element is towards the right side behind a canister. Hope this helps.
