Henri for Model Number TEDS840PQ1 I ordered from you, received and replaced the thermal fuse on my Estate (part AP3094254) electric dryer but still no heat. How complicated is the heating element to replace? I have zero experience but I can read directions. The element is $50 and the dryer is about 8 years old. I'm concerned that I might buy this part and still be have no heat. Thanks for your help and advice.
Answer Hello Henri. The heaters are not hard to replace. 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 279838 and thermostats 279816 and see if they are good. You can test these with a multi-meter MA-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 Read More...
