The heating element warms the air before it enters the dryer drum. Over time, the heating element can burn out, causing the dryer not to heat. To determine if the heating element has burned out, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the heating element does not have continuity, replace it.

Dryer heating element assembly. If the dryer does not heat the thermal fuse should be checked before replacing the heating element. Normally, the element will have a break in the coil if defective.
