Hi and welcome to FixYa, I am Kelly.
Try this first: Reach inside the drum and move the dryer drum by hand for about 1/2 revolution SLOWLY. Move the drum in a CLOCKWISE direction so you do not cause the ifler pulley to fly off. Then try a start.
Most likely the thermal fuse has failed.... the reason these fail is due to poor air-flow. Clean everything... wash the lint filter with vinegar and water, then soap and water. Vacuum all the internal ducting and the lint filter cavity. Use a folded wire coat hanger if necessary to knock the lint free so you can vacuum it out. Go outside and check the thru the wall vent flapper for blockage. THEN replace the thermal fuse. Turn on the dryer and check air flow with the rear ducting disconnected. It should push a relaxed hand gently away from the duct connection. If you do not have this kind of air flow after an avid cleaning and lint removal session... there is most likely a problem with the blower wheel spinning on the motor shaft / broken fan hub. Blower wheel / fan is item 37 of this link: http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-model/Kenmore-Parts/Dryer-Parts/Model-11062622101/0582/0151200/P0110200/00003
The other possibiliies are the motor switch and the timer. Most of the time the problem is the thermal fuse failure due to lint build up.
Hi,
If you are having problems with your gas dryer not heatingthe most common problem is that the ignitor goes bad. Even though it glowssometimes 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 differentthings that can go wrong causing the dryer not to heat.
check outthis electric no heat tip...
dryer is built by whirlpool, unplug ,remove back, check for resistance of element with an ohm meter. if reistance is infinite ,buy another element part #279838. if not check the thermostat above the element , should read 0 ohms
you have probably lost one leg of your power supply feed 120volts+120volts=240volts,your motor will operate on 120volts, but the element won't,also if you have 240volts the neutral wire to the element can burn off w/heat and age
when you try to start it again do you hear a humming comeing from the motor? can you jump start it by turning the drum while holding the start button? If you say yes to these questions you have a bad motor.
