Dryer drum spins normally but produces no heat on any cycle — the heating element coil has burned out or broken open.
Clothes take multiple cycles to dry; dryer produces weak heat because part of the element coil is damaged or partially open.
If the element is partially shorted to the case it may produce heat continuously even after the thermostat signals to stop, causing overheating.
A shorted or continuously-on heating element causes excessive heat that trips the thermal fuse repeatedly — replacing the element resolves the root cause.
💡 Pro Tip: How to Diagnose a Failed Heating Element
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Dryer runs but produces no heat on any cycle
⚠️ Clothes remain damp or take excessively long to dry
⚠️ Dryer overheats — drum is very hot but clothes don't dry efficiently
⚠️ Visible break or open coil in the heating element wire when inspected
🛠 Diagnostic Tip: Unplug the dryer and use a multimeter set to Rx1. Touch the probes to the two main element terminals — a good element reads near 0 ohms (~10 ohms resistance). An open circuit (OL / infinity) confirms the element is burned out. Also test each terminal to the metal case — any continuity to ground means the element is shorted and must be replaced.
