Hello,
I am in need of some help. My Maytag dryer runs but the timer doesn't work and I have no heat.
I have replaced the heating elements, timer and cycling thermostat. The thermal cut-off, high limit and the thermal fuse all show continuity at room temp.
When I check the wires to the heating elements I have 90 volts but when the wires are connected and I check the terminal I get nothing.
The drum turns so I have power to the motor.
Blower works fine as well
What am I missing I should be getting heat

Sounds like your not getting 240vac to the machine. The heat element and the timer motor run off of 240vac while the drive motor runs off of 120vac. Check for 240vac at the cord connection terminal block on the back of the machine.

With dryer running in timed dry cycle, check voltage across the timer BK and WB terminals. Then check BK to ground and WB to ground. Post results.
