Who diagnosed the problem? It seems to me if they could diagnose it they should be able to install a new one?

Replace screws at rear exactly as they were. Entrance for this dryer is at the lower front panel.

Unplug unit first. Place a putty knife in the space between the upper and lower panel at the front of the dryer about 4 inches in from either side to push up the retaining clips while pulling on the panel. This will release the lower panel and give you full access to all the main components.

The heater is on the right in the metal can with the cover at the front. On the left side of the can is a thermal fuse that may be open to turn off the heater. There is also a thermostat that may be bad or interconnecting wiring. Remove cover at the front of the can and disconnect wires to element.Element should slide out for replacement. Look for screws retaining it if it doesn't.

Reverse above process for reassembly. Good Luck.

I need to find out how to remove the back off my Kenmore 800 series dryer. its electric everything is unplugged. I need to replace the heating element and can not get the back off the dryer!!!!

Hello Raylene;

My name is Peter. I am a retired field service appliance technician.

The model number you provided id for a oven. Open the dryer door. There is a label on the face of the dryer. Send that to me.

I just this morning replaced a electric heater element for a friend. I purchased the part over the internet for $30.00.

I will walk you through this. It is not hard.

Kenmore Gas Dryer does not dry clothes.

If this is the electric version then after 15 years you probably need a new heating element, they are not difficult to install and are not terribly expensive as a DIY project.

Don't know this model specifically, but this can also occur from a bad door seal letting room air in. Check all the way around both doors before major surgery!

Gas dryer not maintaining heat. 70 Series Kenmore/Whirlpool 76722

Fuse is ok . Problem is the soils on the burner valve . If the dryer heats when started , the electricity goes thru the coils to open the valve . Once the coils get warm , 1 will open (short) until it cools back down . The coils can be replaced just by removing the front panel . Only 2 screws hold the coils in place . No turning off gas , dissasembling dryer .

970-686133 Bake and Broil Element not working

Typically what happens on on these models, when the bake element breaks, it sends a surge back to the oven control (or clock) and causes it to fail also. Sounds like this is what has happened here. If the overlay (touchpad) is a separate piece, you will need to buy it also. Let me know if you have any questions.
