This is hypical of dryers that have heat element inside back cover
Dryer won't Heat! (http://repair2000.com/noheat.html)
The Element Canister contains most items associated heating
1. Thermal Cutout 2. High Limit Thermostat 3. Heating Element Terminals
On the Left is 4. Thermal Fuse -- These are main items to check with meter
Safety First -- Unplug Dryer before removing back of dryer -- be safe
The Wires also have terminals that get extremely hot and need repaired
