Jose June 28, 2011 for Model Number wet3300sq1 The heating element is not getting 220 volts of power. What could be the problem?
1 Answer Hello Jose. 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 WP3387749 and thermal fuses 279769 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...

Jim May 24, 2011 for Model Number le9500xtw1 I just replaced the heating element and the dryer does not seem to heat up as much as the original element. It is a 5200w element - off brand, I believe as it was made in Mexico? Is it possible that the High Temp - Cutoff sensor is not working and the dryer is being limited to the 60 degree cool down temp? Vent was cleaned and air flow is good. Thanks.
1 Answer Hello Jim. You will need to test and see how much heat the dryer is producing. You can test this with a multi-meter with temperature TJMA-DMT3. It should cycle between 110° and 155°. You can test this with a multi-meter MA-DM1. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter.

Paul May 17, 2011 for Model Number REX3514PQ0 We have a Roper Dryer and it takes two entire cycles to completely dry a load. What is the problem ?
1 Answer Hello Paul. It sounds like the venting system is clogged or kinked. You will need to check the vent and clean it out. Be sure and clean the vent pipe and the dryer air duct assembly. If the air flow is not good, the unit will retain moist air causing the clothes not to dry. Try running the unit with the vent unhooked from the back of the dryer and see if the dryer works properly. Hope this helps. Read More...

Mike April 08, 2011 Yes it does. I have no coninuity on it. It is open, but the part in the picture of the kit does not look like it has the same holes to attach it. Will I have to modify it or the vent to make it fit?
