    Thank you! A $27 part that took me a half-hour to diagnose and replace versus a two-week wait and an estimated $250 repair from an appliance company. You saved us time, money, and convenience. Well made video with clear directions. Excellent job!

    11 years old and its by far the best video. Every other video the goofballs leave the wires connected to the parts that were tested. I'm no electrician but that did not seem right to me. I like how you said the heater unit has either 2 or 4 wires connected to it. On mine I've got 3 wires. Joy.

My power outlets, thermostats, & timer switch all checked out OK, but my heating element did not. After removing it, I found the break in the heating element. Gave me the confidence to order a new heating element & finish the repair myself. Thank you!

    Troy great instructions on replacing element on Kenmore dryer You are clear with great visual in your instruction on repair/replace on the Kenmore Dryer. I have a Kenmore Heavy Dryer "Runs Like a Horse" 35 year old dryer. Replace the heating element in 2005 now I am going to replace the part in 2022. Once the element is in place cleaned and connected to the vent it will be back and drying for another 35 years (maybe) :).

    At 3:32, i check for continuity on mine and there is continuity BUT at 3:36, i do exactly what he does and there's no continuity when touching the heating element.... So I'm assuming it has shorted out. What do i do when it's shorted?

    Will the nasty dust on the wiring in the back cause the dryer not to heat. I did everything I could so far except put it back together. I’m 71 and in a lot of pain and alone. So I ask you this before I put it together…I hope you can help me…

    Great video...
    But it doesn't say anything about what you do if you do have continuity on the thermostat and the heater. I found the wiring schematics in the back. He didn't mention to check the non resettable thermal cutoff at the top of the heater duct unit. That also should have continuity on the tabs with at least one wire pulled. If it is open, you won't have power to the heater coils. As it is non-resettable, it will have to be replaced
    If it's bad, be sure to check your drier vent hose to the outside. It may be full of lint causing the unit to overheat.

      It could be your thermal fuse. That is what he didn't check in this video. It's located about a foot about the element with 2 wires going to it and you can see it in the video. That's what went bad on mine. Your best bet would be to check everything again with a multi-meter. It's possible one or both of your new parts could have failed. I would eliminate all possibilities.

    • @oosswwaalldd
      @oosswwaalldd 3 роки тому

      @packrat76 I think that’s what’s happening to mine, continuity is OK on the heating element and thermostat and the dryer doesn’t heat. What should I check in the thermal fuse? Continuity too? Thanks

    Hi, I noticed you said a kenmore 80 series electric dryer in the video but it looks identical to my kenmore 600 gas dryer. I have not opened my back panel and checked yet but are they identical in the back since I cannot get to the back unless I move it all the way out which I will once I get all the parts.
