Default Electric Dryer Dead
Model Number: LER7646EQ0   Brand: Whirlpool   Age: 5 - 10 years   

My dryer has gone completely dead. I had some clothes drying, and when I turned the dryer off, I heard a clicking or popping sound. After this, the dryer was completely dead; the inside light doesn't even come on. I checked the circuit breaker, and it had tripped. I flipped the circuit breaker back on, but the dryer is still dead. I would appreciate any ideas about what's wrong, troubleshooting suggestions, or any other advice as to what I should do next. Thanks

Should be an easy fix. Remove back plate over pigtail connection and look for a blown wire.
If ok, remove back panel and look for a burnt wire. If ok, remove front panel and drum and look for a burnt wire.

My dryer same model was fine yesterday, but won't start today. It has power, and is not making any noise. Any thoughts?
