A failed element is usually the culprit for my Kenmore HE5. But this time I found no break in the coil. Figured it had to be one of the two temp switch gimmicks , but decided to do a little research before I started buying unnecessary parts. And sure enough , UA-cam , and you fine Sir , saved the day ! Bent the mounting arms out of the way , so I could smack it flat on the floor , and after 4 hard smacks , BINGO BANGO BONGO I had continuity ! Slapped her back together , and we have HEAT ! My Wife now believes me to be a genius ! Thank you for making this video ! I’m off to attempt to capitalize on my Wife’s newly found good mood ! Wish me luck ! 😁
Thanks Patriot Marine, I checked all the elements and sensors as per your instructions for my no heat dryer. Also cleaned out the lint screen, found $20 and change in there! Sensors and elements were good, put it all back together and the dryer works and I have a very happy wife now.
This is what is called a mechanic, master technician , wizard any of those
I can't believe this worked - or ratheter that I was able to do it. You just saved me a few hundred dollars. THANK YOU!!!
Perfect, took 10 minutes to fix. Banged sensor on floor and reinstalled after checking continuity and presto, works!
I can’t believe this WORKED!!! This was the first thing I tried, thank you!
OMG. It worked. I taped it on the floor one time (a little hard). Same sensor that was bad on your video. The other sensors tested good with my electrical tester on Om’s. Thank you so much.
Thank you for your service. Replaced the heating element which temporarily fixed my issue. but the dryer stopped heating shortly after. It was that last piece you spoke about. Banging on the floor worked.
Can’t express my gratitude for this video
Thank you from Mississippi! This video was exactly what i needed and it was done perfectly in my opinion.
Thank you, you are awesome sir, I cant tell you how much you saved my family in cost and stress, and your video, the way you explained and teach it simply and directly, it really helped, thanks so very much.
Outstanding video! I was able to use the techniques outlined in this video to diagnose which part failed and order the appropriate part saving me $100's. Your video was very well outlined and described the techniques so that amateurs like me could understand. I appreciate your work! Thank you!
Thank you. I was able to fix mine without calling a repiar man, just cleaned everything, specially lint sensors, used metal wire scrubber, removed and cleaned all sensors, everything's as before,cleaned all lint from fan, tubing area.
THANK YOU! Sears Parts Direct DIY Help took me down a rabbit hole of removing the rear access panel. No such thing on this dryer, but when attempted drops the drum mounting, so now you get to remove the top to fix that error.
Yeah I saw Kemore makes a dryer with the element in the back
Great video! Very detailed! This will be such a big help on repairing my granddaughter’s dryer! Thanks for doing the video!👍😊
Thanks so much for sharing this video it really helped me to figure out what was wrong with my dryer it save me money and time waiting to get repaired thank you so much!!🙏
Thanks so much for the video! I followed your instructions exactly, and the same problem with mine. So I slammed the part on the floor and BINGO! It works. I'll get a new one as soon as I can. Thanks again.
I would like to do a video like this some time.
This worked perfectly. THANK YOU!
Semper-Fi! I was 3rd Marines 1/9 B Company stationed in Khe Shan 1967. Very helpful and easy to follow. Thanks
Semper-Fi
Thank you for your service Marine 🤝
Fantastic video that helped me fix my dryer. Thanks so much for posting it.
Thanks for the video. It was very helpful! Saved me $500.
My Kenmore Elite just quit giving heat. Thank you for making this video. The thing came with the house we bought in December. I believe it has not had much care so this helps me understand what needs to be done. Thanks!
did you get it done
The tap method worked for me. Thanks
Hardest part of this job is getting to the two sensors. Rather than go through that pain again you can purchase both sensors for less than 60 bucks. With that being said thanks so much for the info. I went from no dryer to a hot dryer in less than two hours.
Perfect video, fixed the problem for $6.99
Thank you for this video. Saved me a bunch of money.
Super helpful patriot!
Worked for me today!
Smacking that part worked like a charm! 😂
Had to use a hammer but it worked. Ordered the $10 part off Amazon. Thanks a lot.
Thank you so much for the video you the man brother works great still ordered one
You're the Best!💐👏🏽 Thanks for your Wonderful instructions!🌺👍🏾
Very helpful I’m about to try this today
Hello my friend thank you for making this video dryer is fixed in just few minutes
Thanks, I had the exact same thermal fuse go bad.
God Bless you and Thank you so much for sharing this amazing video.
Great video and very helpful
Many thanks for sharing your knowledge 👍👍
I just got done taking my dryer apart to get this piece out of It and unfortunately It did not work After slamming It firmly on a solid surface but I've already looked Up on Amazon for the correct part number and it should be here this Saturday, I sure hope this fixes my dryer because I am not spending over $200 just for Ace appliances to come screw me over just for one little part.
Also I bought a cheap $6.99 harbor freight voltage meter to make sure each part was operating correctly just like you did in the video, Thank you so much for that tip
Thanks for the video!!!
your Video was perfect help me find the fix ..Thank You.
Awesome video…was very helpful…thanks
Thanks. Big help.
Very helpful, thank you.
Thank you so very much. Did what you said and it works again!!!
Make sure you vacuum all the lint in there too; if exhaust hose is partly clogged that may have caused it to get hotter than it's designed to & why it tripped.
Thanks for this video, it was the same thermal cutoff that was bad on mine, looks a little different though.
thankyou this is a great video, i was able to fix the problem.
Thank you very much for your video
Thank you !
Nice info ty for it.👍👍👍
Sweet thanks!
Wonderful
Thank you very much it worked The same part in the rear of the heating element housing I slapped it 4 times and it worked
What’s that part number ? Thanks again
thanks!! great tutorial. do you have a link or part number, I didn't see it in the description?
Great video! I checked all the thermal switches and have continuity on all. Any other ideas? I checked the voltage at the element block and it’s 42 Volts?
The video is good and exactly what I needed the only issue is you failed to mention what the parts are called and where they are at I know what I need to replace but have no idea what it is called
I'll give this a try. At least I can do that ... This seems like a good elimination step before I start ripping the whole dryer apart ... I've never fixed a dryer before so ... wish me luck !!! LOL I have been having good luck by diving into DIY projects over the past few years. First step is not being afraid to fail. At least if I wreck it proper and have to buy a new machine anyway ... It was my own dang fault. I've ALWAYS viewed appliances like this as disposable so this is new territory for me. ( ... I THINK THIS WAS JUST THE FEAR IN THE BACK OF MY HEAD TALKING) This particular Kenmore I will be attempting to fix is just too new to justify garbaging ... so far ... LOL ...
I found the limit thermostat but I am not finding the reset thermostat to replace on my kenmore 90 series gas dryer. Any idea of where to look?
What do you call this part? What does it do?
Unbelievable!! It really worked. Thank you so much. My only problem is that I have to replace this part almost every week. Any idea what could be causing that?
Thank you for your service!
Make sure your dryer vent is clean.
I have a kenmore elite and it just stopped heating, when i took the panel off to the front of the dryer to look underneath the dryer there was lint everywhere on the wires on the heating element and I vacuumed everything everywhere underneath to remove all lint, i figured that was the problem, i put the panel back on and it’s still not heating
Sir first of all I want to truly thank you for not just fixing your own dryer but mostly for sharing with those of us that may not have the mechanical skills to do so. I have a kenmore elite but mine does not have that small lower front panel. Do you think my entire front face or cap has to be pulled off.
Depends on your Model, some have the front lower panel (11097727701) others don't (? )
@@PatriotMarine yes sir mine doesn’t. I’ve got about 15 screws on the floor now and still have t figured out how to take the front face off. I may and up with a bucket of screws only
@@nathanurick8320 How did you make out? I think I will be tackling the same.
@@carolgetz1244 I had 14 screws off my dryer and still could not get the front or side panels off. I Enedina up having to call somebody but then I had to cancel that due to an illness in my home. They are coming Monday now.
@@nathanurick8320 Get well soon. Good luck. I’ll attempt taking mine apart soon 🤞🏻
You did a great job, but as a repair novice, I would have really really appreciated a step by step process.. not just saying things you did and calling it simple.
Very step by step ;) Just follow his talking exactly and you'll do great!
im a idiot and its haed@@jack9601
First, thank you for your service. Would this be the possible solution if only one setting didn't work ie Normal mode doesn't work but all other modes work?
thank you!
I'm not an alliance repair tech... but, these just prevent heating element from 'turning on' if area where they are gets above a certain temperature. If dryer only 'heats' on 'Normal' setting, I would start with the temperature switch.
Can someone help with link to get part if it’s not worked?
which is the one all the way in the back??????
It worked and got me going until my new one came in.
Why did it over heat to begin with ? Mine has needed to be tapped on floor 2 times now ... I cleaned out all the lint
What is that part called?
I ordered the parts kit for the thermal cut off fuse kit, following the link in your description to Amazon. The replacement part for the defective fuse (the same one identified in your very helpful video) is shaped different - it lacks the hook and looks different, but it fits. The writing on it says something like (the lettering is very small and indistinct) CQC KSD3011 250V 25A 352F. The original part has on it: 6274 352F 3977394 and the letters FSP. Is the replacement part OK to use?
Make sure you use: 'Make sure this fits' Model, Brand, for your specific dryer.
@@PatriotMarine Using the 'make sure this fits' doesn't give me any results for my Kenmore model # 110.62992101 Hopefully the important portion of the number for the part is the 352F designation, which I assume means that's the temperature when it cuts off. I also assume that the various part numbers are different housings and attachments for the same type fuse.The dryer works now.
With further research on Amazon, this link looks like the same part in my dryer, although I still don't see an exact match for the part number I have (www.amazon.com/AMI-PARTS-3977394-Replacement-Whirlpool/dp/B07RBSC4X2). My part is 3977394 and all the references I can find are for 3977393.
I bought this dyer used from a used appliance dealer, so perhaps they replaced the original fuse once already with the 394 part that is no longer available or referenced..
I want to thank you again for posting this video. Your directions were very clear and easy to follow. I couldn't have done this repair without it!
It did help me. But after a couple of weeks, it happens again 😢
I have a few questions. I believe that part is a safety switch so is it telling you something is getting to hot? also if you need a temporary fix until the part arrives can you just use a jumper until the new part arrives? Thank you so much for the video. :)
Yes. I have (I'M NOT RECOMENDING YOU DO) because of EXACTLY what the part does and if you have lint somewhere that you DON"T remove it COULD START A FIRE) ... but what I show in the video works.
@@PatriotMarine Got it. Thank you for your video. I removed the cover and lint was covered everywhere! Found the thermal fuse was bad on the lint tunnel after the fan. I jumpered it to verify and the flame came on I will make sure everything is cleaned. Ordered it and on its way. Thanks again
Thank you sir, can you please tell us where you buy the replacement parts? For Kenmore Elite, appreciated. Name and phone?
Local appliance store, also eBay, just look for part number of your specific model
I need help
I am ready to try this. The repair man has charged me $250 and everytime he leaves its stops heating in 5 minutes. He wants to charge me another $150 saying it's cause it's dirty inside. I'm done. Practically paid for another dryer. Wish me luck cause I'm no repair women but these fee's have to stop. I can't afford it!
What do you do if there’s no continuity with the coil? I’m not getting continuity on the first pack closest to the front that you called “coil”
With power OFF (((unplugged))) turn it to left about a quarter turn and it should slide out. You should see it broken.
Thanks so much! Got on Amazon and bought the two types of coil packs that are available and used the correct one and we have heat in the dryer again! So clutch, thanks for the quick and easy video! Happy holidays! Blessings
I had replaced everything but still not working. Can somebody tell me the name of the part beside the white fuse. That’s the only thing I have not replaced
you need to be more specific; as in 00:00 in video.
Where is the part linked? I need to order one
Depends on your model number
Do you have the link to order the meter?
I no longer see the multimeter I have at a great price, but I'll post one that is for most home uses above.
My coil is not have no continuity, do you have any advice
if heater coil doesn't, then you should see a spot where it's broken (unless at ends)
@@PatriotMarine I ordered Heating Element I believe need to replace
Is this for a gas or electric dryer?
This one is electric.

You had me until you said to bang it on the floor...
