I replaced the breaker and the heating element first. Then I checked for continuity everywhere and found that motor needed to be replaced. I replaced it and still have no heat.
What else could it be?:confused:

Did you check the voltage at the receptacle?

What brand... they all have thermal cutoff fuses that will not let the element come on

I use to work for an appliance repair place. When ever anyone called with this problem I always had them check the lint filter, make sure it is clean and clear. There is also, behind the dryer a place where the air blows out, usually to the outside of the home. If this area is clogged the dryer will not blow hot air. You will see a "tube" going into the wall and if you go to where it comes out just clear out the tube. You would be amazed how many people do not know to check this easy fix.
