Joe T. for Model Number MEDC200XW1 My dryer runs but no heat. I have checked all thermostats and they are all closed. I checked the heating element and got a reading of 9.7 ohms. Voltage to the dryer is 242v and there is good air flow. I have also checked the contacts on the timer and I am getting a good reading across the terminals when they are required to be closed. WHAT ELSE TO DO? And could it still be the heat element?
Answer Hello Joe, The components in th4e heating circuit are the harness, timer, thermal cutoff, cycling thermostat, high limit thermostat, the heating element, and the centrifugal switch in the motor assembly. If you have verified the visible components, you should break the circuit by pulling the solid red wire from the thermal cutoff. This will allow you to see which leg of voltage you have lost. If you have voltage on the solid red wire, this proves the timer is passing L1. You will then need to suspect the centrifugal switch in the motor assembly not passing L2. Read More...
