The coil which heats up may need to be replaced or the coil isn't getting any power to it. If you are able and have a reliable multimeter, you can check it out. If the coil is getting power during operation, than the problem lies with the coil. To test a coil, unplug the coil from the electrical socket (NOTE: unplug the dryer from the electrical source first.). Put one test lead on one end of the coil and the other test lead on the opposite end of the coil. If the circuit is open, then the coil is bad and must be replaced. If the circuit is closed, then the coil is good and the problem is elsewhere, probably not getting power. This could be a bad socket, bad controller, or blown fuse. I hope that this help tp solve your problem.

My kenmore elite dryer will not heat. There is no obstruction in the vent (I have run it without the vent hooked up).

You probably need to replace the heating element. It is located behind the drum that the clothes spin in.

Dryer working but no heat

The manual says that two circuit breakers used,and that the dryer
can spin but no heat if one of them tripped, check your panel and see
if any breakers are tripped. If this was the problem,have an electrician
check the circuit.

My Kenmore Elite dryer spins with no heat

please check the thermal cutoff. these are the parts with 2 thick wires attached to it. they are normally located near the heating element ( if electrical ) and (near the exhaust if it is gas).

these parts control the heating element.
