The dryer tumbles, but no heat is coming out. Do I need a new element?

Answer Hello Janette. First check and make sure you have 240 volts coming to the dryer. If so, then test the element and thermal fuses. You will perform all these test with a multi-meter TJMA-DM1. The fuses and element should read closed for continuity. If either one of these are open, replace that part. Hope this helps.

Answer Hello Sherman, You will need to test and see if the thermal fuses, and the door switch is good. You can test these with a multi-meter. They should read closed or 0 for continuity. Also check the bearings, front and rear, and see if they are worn causing the noise you are having. Hope this helps.
