Everything works, turns, etc., but no heat. I cleaned lint trap and checked outside for flow. It all checks out. I pulled your site diagrams and pulled back panel of dryer off. Any/all troubleshoot ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!! 4 kids and a ton of laundry. HELP!!!!!Thanks.

If you have an ohm meter check all the thermostats and the element for continuity. You may also want to check your breaker box, sometimes the breaker partially trips so the unit doesn't get the required power to heat.

If the ignitor comes on, and no gas, the coils on the gas valve will be the problem. If the ignitor does not come on, then it would either be the ignitor or the flame sensor. But the first thing I would check is in the back of the dryer is a thermal fuse. It is white in color, and is about an inch and a half long, and a half inch wide. Take the 2 wires off of it, and put the terminal ends together, and put some tape around it, so it does not hit metal, and then plug the dryer in and check it out. If it works, DO NOT RUN the dryer like that. It is a safty, and stops the dryer from burning down the house. Let me know how it goes.Tom ApplianceEducator.com
