Chris for Model Number LDE8300ACW My dryer stopped heating, but continues to tumble and blow air normally. I have checked the hi limit switch and the two thermal fuses and all show continuity. When checking the cycling thermostat (wp307249) I get continuity between the outer contacts at room temperature, and open circuit at high temperature. The inner contacts however always show high resistance (approx 50k ohms). Is this correctly functioning? Are there any other components I should be testing?
Answer Hello Chris, yes that is how it works, next check that there is 240v at the dryer's terminal block Black L1 to Red L2 with the dryer running, next check the heating element for correct resistance about 10-12 ohms, lastly if all checks are good, check that the heater is actually getting 240v at its terminals while running.
