Possible Causes
Open heating element, Blown thermal fuse, Failed cycling thermostat, Tripped house breaker (half power on 240V supply)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the dryer and turn off the breaker before testing components.
- Check breakers: For 240V models, verify both breakers are ON. A tripped leg can allow the motor to run without heat.
- Test heating element: Access the heater housing and measure continuity across the element. Replace the heating element assembly if open.
- Check thermal fuse: Locate the thermal fuse on the blower housing or exhaust duct. Test for continuity; replace if open and correct any vent restrictions.
- Test cycling thermostat: Verify continuity at room temperature and proper operation per specs.
