Dryer left on for couple days when left for a weekend and stayed on whole time as did not shut off in the "more dry" position. Now dryer does not heat at all. Dryer does tumble and checked power is OK. Flipped breakers all OK. Dryer bought used 1 year ago and has never varied or worked on the automatic dry settings. Reason however used the auto settings was that it was not getting enough heat on the timed settings. Previous to this. I have not yet run an electrical meter across the fuse or heating element. Not sure where are unless take apart whole dryer.

Its very hard testing without a test meter.. volts and ohms. The Casing & heater is on the right side facing the back of the dryer. Metal silver in color, the heater is inside of the caseing. You can take the heater out and look for broken coils on the heater to see if it needs replacing. You have a to lift the top up to get at the top screw of the heater casing, take the 2 screws out of the flap where the lint filter goes. Use a putty knife to push the clips in on the front of the dryer and look to the back on the left side to remove the top screw of the casing. check the heater a post results.. theres many more things to check if the heater is good.

First and foremost check your breakers. There will be 2, 30 amp breakers. Even if they don't look tripped reset them anyway. Then try the dryer if that's not the problem then you either have a thermostat problem or heating element and will need to check with an ohm meter.

SOURCE: dryer heats, then quits

The thermostat that controls the heat has failed. Try one of the other settings on the timer switch ans see if it will heat, the different cycles use different thermostats.
