Zack for Model Number 11069422801 The heating element in my Kenmore dryer will turn on sometimes at the start of the cycle and then shut off after about 5 minutes and not turn back on. I check all the possible things for continuity and they all had continuity. So I thought it might be the thermal cutoff and replaced that with your kit but it still is doing the same thing. Any thoughts as to what I should try next?
Answer Zack, Check the venting of the unit as this could cause the heater to short cycle. If this is good then check to see if there is still 240 Vac to the heater when the heater is going off. If there is not then test the thermostats to see which one is open if any. If they are all closed then you will need to check to see if there is 120 Vac from the timer to the heater. If there is not then replace the timer. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, March 1, 2023
