I have a Sears Kenmore dryer tumbles but no heat I replaced the Hi limit theremo and check the heating element. I am getting a ohm reading on the heating element but it does not heat up. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks MS

Make sure your lint traps are clean

If the element is good, are you getting 220 volts to it?

The lint trap is clean, and yes I am getting 220 volts to the heating element

Did you remove one lead to the element when you checked it? If not you could be getting a false reading. I would remove the element and visually check it

Removed it and took it to an appliance parts center they are the one that check it.
