    Kenmore dryer
    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.
