This is an electric heated device?
Do you use fabric softener sheets in your machine? If yes, have you tried cleaning the sensor? Look on the back wall for a sensor. Check with Sears for specific instructions.

The following site offers an agitator repair kit. I have no idea what is in it but you could inquire. The point is, you have to step by step eliminate the possible causes. And to DIY it, you have to locate the instructions about testing each possible cause in turn. Sears offers diagrams and so forth. There may be additional YouTube videos about each possible cause and a procedure. https://www.repairclinic.com/RepairHelp/How-To-Fix-A-Washing-Machine/40-6--/Kenmore-Washer-Won-T-Agitate

Enter your model number to get user manual, parts diagrams parts lists and order parts.
Model numbers are usually covered by the lid or door.
Conventional dryers are usually accessed by removing the rear panel. I would think these would be the same. Unplug the dryer and remove wires from heating element. Test for continuity with an ohmmeter. If there is no reading, the heating element is bad. Disconnect wires from the hi temp thermostat and test with an ohmmeter and if no reading it is bad. Sears has these parts available.
Your Heating element may have burned out. Repair clinic has some good repair videos, and a parts department. Sears parts direct is also another source for parts.
