[quote=Gene;117034]The first thing I would do is check for 240 VAC at the dryer power outlet. The motor needs only 120 VAC while the heating element needs 240 VAC.

Then, according to the [URL="http://manuals.frigidaire.com/prodinfo_pdf/Webster/131850300.pdf"][B]wiring diagram[/B][/URL], you have to check for continuity the following parts in the heating circuit:

1. Control thermostat (#15 on the [B][URL="http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?diagram_id=354085&&model_id=109442"]diagram[/URL])[/B] 

2. High limit thermostat (#33 on the [URL="http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?diagram_id=354082&&model_id=109442"][B]diagram[/B][/URL])

3. Heating element (#15 on the [URL="http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?diagram_id=354082&&model_id=109442"][B]diagram[/B][/URL])

Any of them with the "open" circuit reading should be replaced.

 - The control thermostat [PART]AP2106564[/PART]


 - The high limit thermostat [PART]AP2131477[/PART]


 - The heating element assembly [PART]AP2107129[/PART]
