I took the back of top of the dryer apart (3 screws) and checked that the control boards weren't shorted as I had replaced one last time it stopped heating. Everything looked good and the continuity was 110v. Then I took the back off the dryer (about 10 screws) and checked the ohms of the heating element and its high resistance safety shutoff by unplugging the dryer and then individually unplugging one female end from both the element and the safety shut-off and then put the volt meter on the plugged and the unplugged end of each of these 2 parts 1 at a time. These can be found bottom left from the back of the dryer. The safety showed 0 ohms meaning that I had a closed circuit with current running through it and the heatint element showed nothing meaning it was a dead component with no current passing through. Had to disconnect the wiring from these 2 parts which are on a cylindrical aluminum tube that the element inside of. Underside of the tube is 1 screw that keeps it connected in the back and then the flatter aluminum peice it connects to that comes towards the backside and up toward top of the dryer has 3 screws to remove and the entire piece slides out. Near the 2 male ends of the heatint element there is 1 screw on the outside that holds the element in place inside the tube. Removed and grab the element from the inside and pull out of the tube. Install in reverse order.
