If the thermistor OEM on this model MED2400AYW is open will it cause the dryer to not heat.I have tested the fuses (both of them)
heater element also. all checked out to be good but still no heat.

Answer Ron,
Yes, an open thermistor could cause the unit to not heat. When checking the thermistor 35001056 you will need to check the resistance value of the resistor. If it is reading open on the resistance then it is bad and would need to be replaced.
Dryer runs but there is no heat.

Answer Hello Cindy. Check and make sure you have 240 volts coming to the dryer. Check and make sure the unit is not set to Air Fluff. Also check the heater 34001073 and thermal fuses 35001021 35001022 and see if they are good. You can test these with a multi-meter TJMA-DM1. They should read closed for continuity. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html
