Also check the main control board (with the power cable unplugged) for any signs of electrical overheating. And do not leave this dryer unattended while running for any reason.
Hope this helps
Check the circuit breaker for the dryer. There are 2 of them side by side with their handles joined. Sometimes one will trip but not the other. This stops the heating element but not the rest of the dryer.
both are inside the outter casing... remove the back and then call an applience store tech to come do his free discovery process. watch the guy while he works... and then follow up with a $20 bill and a 6 pack ... he will likely do you right in the repair.
If the technician that came out told you he simply reset your heating element, he was not telling you the truth. Heating elements themselves cannot be reset. The element is either good, or burnt out and would need to be replaced. More common on modern dryers is that the thermal fuse on the side of the heater duct will blow out and needs to be replaced. This is usually caused due to poor air flow because of a lint blockage in the outlet duct. I would recommend calling a good, reputiable service company to repair the issue and to check the outlet duct as well. To get to the heater duct assembly, the top cover, control panel and front panel (including the door) must be removed.
