I have a kenmore 60 series that won't heat up
Have checked to see if the air flow is blowing
Seems fine , Do you think this might be a heating element
Will the air dry on this unit dry the clothes as well.
Never used it before,If so where is the element
Located.. Is it difficult to change ?

Thank you

Usually, the heating element is NOT the most likely part that goes bad. Start checking the thermo-fuse and while you're back there also check the thermostats and if they are good then check the element with an ohm-meter. All dryers need good air-flow to dry the clothes but you need heat as well.
