Default Tumbles, Cycles, but no heat
Brand: Frigidaire
Age: 1 - 4 years

I've checked continuity on all the thermostats, the thermal fuse, and the timer, as well as the actual element itself; i get readings that they are all good (0). Whats next call an electrician to test the actual circuit breaker itself? The dryer is 2 yrs. old. I've checked for backed up lint, none. Tumbles fine, blows fine, follows the cycles fine. I've checked the low,med,high temp switch on the front panel it reads 0 also. My guess is, is that it has something to do with something in/on the motor, some switch or bad connection in there, i don't know. Thats a bit to techy for me to get into, theres like 8 plus wires that run into the motor. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Check the voltage at the dryer.

You should have 240 volts.

Can you please supply your model number?
