Likely the thermal fuse needs replacing. This is usually caused by a clogged and/or kinked vent hose or clogged lint trap. The thermal fuse is a fire safety feature, which(blows) opens the circuit, cutting off power to the motor and element when the machine runs too hot!

Yes. Remove the kickplate and check the continuity of the thermal fuse located on the blower housing.

The ignitor may be bad or the thermal fuse may be failed.

Kenmore Elite model 85513 everything works but it doesn heat like it use to only about 1/3 power is there something I could replace.

Check for plugged exhaust! The hose between the dryer and outside can plug completly.

Hope This Helps?

I had this problem with one of my dryers and it turned out that the heating element was broken. It is a repair man that you need now I'm afraid.

Hello,

Check the vent on the back. This is indicating a air flow issue. If the vent is clear ohm the heater out check it for continuity.

Hello, our Kenmore Elite Dryer panel isn't working . I'ts getting power but the panel is not responding.

Hi,

If you are having problems with your gas dryer not heating the most common problem is that the ignitor goes bad. Even though it glows sometimes it is still not working properly.



if you dryer is gas check out this gas no heat tip....



If you have an electric dryer, you can have many different things that can go wrong causing the dryer not to heat.



check out this electric no heat tip...

Kenmore elite

It should just mean "Power Failure". Restart your dryer. Does your house loose power a lot? Or just the dryer. Check your power to the dryer.
