Dryer runs but does not heat; clothes remain cold and damp at the end of the cycle, no error code displayed.

Safety first: Unplug the dryer and allow it to cool completely before working near the heater.

Step-by-step checks:

• Confirm no heat: Run a timed cycle on high heat for 5–10 minutes, then carefully feel the air at the exhaust. If it is still cold, proceed.
• Access heater assembly: Remove the rear panel to expose the heater housing. Inspect for visible damage or broken coils.
• Test heater and fuse: With a multimeter, check continuity across the heating element and any inline thermal fuses or cut-outs. Replace any open components.
• Check connectors: Tighten or replace any loose or heat-damaged spade connectors.

When to call a technician: If replacement parts fail quickly, there may be an underlying airflow or control issue that needs professional diagnosis.
