Your four prong cord has 4 wires. Black,Red,Green and White. Remove the 3 prong cord from the dryer. The
Black and Red wires go to the outside terminals on the dryer. The White
wire goes top the center terminal. The Green wire goes outside the
terminal cover to any nearby screw for grounding.
Could
be a thermal fuse, which is generally the problem. It's cheaper than
replacing the whole heating element. Try that first, or you can even
test it, if you have a voltage meter.
You can also check to see if your vents are blocked. If airflow is
blocked, it can turn off the flame, and not produce any heat. You can
take off the vent hose and turn the machine on to see see if you get
airflow, or if the ignitor kicks on the heat.

hi thanks for the question . from the back panel ,where you can see the motor, and pulley . bring belt to left pulley push down on pulley. now put belt on motor pulley. let go the left pulley . thanks the appliance doc
To do that today, you would need to do the following for older dryers. Turn off the power by pulling the plug From the back remove the console. Remove the top Undo the two screws at the kick strip Carefully remove the front remembering there are wires. Short the wires together and tape them up. Put it all back together. For modern dryers. Some are surface mount and just pull out. Order the part, DON'T leave it like that! ..
The reason for this will be that you have mis-routed the belt or that the spring on the idler arm is weak or has broken / dropped off. The idler pulley puts tension on the back edge of the belt. What made the loud noise will be the key to this. My bet is that you lost the spring or an idler arm mounting bolt.
When it hit the floor you have probably knocked something loose inside the motor itself. You will need to check it spins freely by hand and check the carbon brushes for the armature. You may also need to strip the motor down to check all the wiring connections inside the motor.
If it smalls 'fishy', it is overheating at the motor windings. That would not cause the dryers thermal fuses to trip. Dryers don't normally have an internal breaker. Remove the motor, strip and clean it. Lubricate the bearings. It should spin very freely.
