Jose October 31, 2019 for Model Number DV45H6300EW/A3-0000 I have a three prong heating element. When I test for continuity I get continuity only between two prongs ( red and blue ) but none with the white prong. Does this mean my heating element is bad? The dryer is not producing heat. I already replaced the high limit fuse once.
1 Answer Jose, as the white terminal is showing an open circuit when tested to the other two terminals, this would certainly indicate a bad element coil. Read More...
Greg September 08, 2019 for Model Number DV42H5200EW/A3 When taking apart my heating element assembly the red and blue wires were reversed on the heating element compared to your videos (blue wire on bottom and red on top on my dryer). We bought our dryer used and had issues with no heat right after buying (it came with a 4 month warranty and they fixed it). I want to make sure they didn’t put the wires on wrong. It has run fine for 2 years. Does it matter which wires attach to which lead? I’m guessing no since it ran fine for 2 years. I just want to check (Btw, I did confirm a short in the heating element).
1 Answer Greg, It will not matter which wire goes to which terminal, both wires are live when the heater is turned on as one is the L1 supply and the other is the L2. Read More...

1 Answer Hello Paul, sorry but cannot answer your question as you have the wrong heater element, it should only have 2 terminals Part DC97-14486A. A heater assembly with 3 terminals will be a dual element assembly. Read More...

Joseph July 15, 2019 for Model Number DV5451AEW/XAA-01 I have replaced the heating element assembly twice in the past month. The first one ran 3 weeks and ceased to heat, I thought it was defective so I ordered another one. This worked for 3 days. Dryer runs but there is no heat. I am not sure where to go from here. Any input would be appreciated. Thank you
1 Answer Joseph, with the power cord disconnected from the outlet, you may want to test the heater relay on the main control DC92-00322E. There will be a two-wire connector with a black wire and a blue wire that will need to be disconnected from the heater relay. Once it is removed, this relay will need to be tested for continuity from one terminal to the other. If there is continuity, then the main control will need to be replaced due to a failed relay. From there, you will want to test the thermal cut-off DC96-00887C and the hi-limit thermostat DC47-00018A for continuity. The heating element DC97-14486A will also need to be tested for 10 ohms of resistance. If any component fails to test good, it will need to be replaced. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Marty, This is a single coil element. This is why there are only two element terminals. Read More...

Grace December 26, 2018 for Model Number DV48H7400EW/A2 Is this assembly compatible to DV48H7400EW/A2? This is the model number I see on the dryer. When I do a check on your website, it pulls up DV48H7400EW/A20000 as compatible. Not sure if the last 4 0's make a difference.
