This step-by-step dryer heating element repair guide describes heating element replacement in an electric dryer. Because the heating element generates the dryer's heat, check it if the air in the dryer doesn't get warm. If the air isn't heating, you'll likely need to repair the dryer heating element. You can inspect the heating element for damage or breaks in the heating coil. If the heating element is damaged, replace it with the manufacturer-approved dryer heating element dryer part.
Use these steps in this dryer heating element repair guide to replace the electric heating element in Kenmore, Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Crosley and Estate dryers with a lint screen housing located in the top cabinet panel.
