There are two things in that dryer you need to check, if you have established full power. One is the heating element, and the other is the thermal fuse, which is located at the top of the heater housing. First unplug the dryer.If you have a meter, pull 1 wire off the thermal fuse, and check for continuity, if you don't have it replace it If you do, lets go to the element, pull 1 wire off of it, and check for continuity. If you do not have a meter, let me know, I can tell you a way to check the unit with out it. Tom ApplianceEducator.com
