Yes, you have never said, you checked the power coming to the back of the dryer where the cord goes in. People make an assumption, that if the dryer runs, then it is getting power. Not true. Voltage is lazy, and it travels through the path of least resistance, so if there is any power it will go to the motor, not the element. So take the panel off, and check the power. You might even go out to the dryer breaker, and flip it off and on a few times. But checking the power at the plug, is what you need to establish. Tom ApplianceEducator.com
