Have you checked the thermal fuse for continuity?

It's found at the back of the dryer on the vent housing.
And is white.

I would think that is the next thing to check.
And the most common one to replace as well.

If you go to this link: 11074932200
The first part on the list is the fuse. Check it out and let us know.

Umm.. I didn't mention to check for power at the fuse.
I mentioned to check the fuse itself.

You have to check to see if the fuse is open.

Either with a continuity test or Resistance test.

Or by taping both wires together and turning it on to see if it works.

The wires going to the thermal fuse should be blue.
Take them both off and plug them together then tape them.
Then plug the dryer back in.
Then turn it on and see if it heats.

It would be best for you to start a new thread.
Since the GE dryers are very different compared to the Kenmore by whirlpool.

I don't want anyone reading this thread and following the wrong directions.

Thanks
