My dryer spins and cycles generates at best warm heat. After some internet searching, I assumed that the issue must be dust and lint collecting where the heating element is.

I opened the back up and there was dust around, but not the heating elements were pretty clean. Checked the fuses and they were fully covered, but I did not see any obvious discoloration or other evidence of a burnt fuse so assume they are good as well. Pushed a little red button outside the heating element container which I am assuming is the reset button, but there is very little heat. Note it is not that there is no heat, but that it is very low heat. There was a little red button on the High Limit Thermostat which I pushed. It did not quite click although I was able to depress it. That did not solve my problem. Any ideas?

I appreciate it!
