Hoping and praying yall have a grand suggestion. I have an electric LG dryer that stopped heating after moving homes. The dryer never really got too hot, but would finish the load after 2 cycles. After we moved it just blew cold air. Being reasonably handy I checked with a cheapy multimeter and everything seemed incorrect. Not being patient I decided to just replace the heating element, thermostat, and thermal fuse (as one unit) as well as the Thermistor. At this point I still have no heat and losing my mind. Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated. I have not had any luck finding a control board, so I really want it to be anything else.

Are you sure its getting 240 volts to the dryer? Maybe the cord has a problem.

Thank you for the suggestion - I have not checked the outlet, and could see that being the issue.

That's the first thing I check on a dryer. I check for 240 at the plugin. I check where it connects to the dryer. then I check at the board / timer and then the heating element and thermal fuse..
