    I would measure across your thermals on the duct work. You should read zero volts as they are supposed to be closed. If 1 is open, it will read voltage. Unit must be running at time of test. If no electrical or appliance experience, then this is what a Tech might do.

    My guess is that either the thermal fuse has blown, or your heating element has burned out.

    Here is a link that may prove useful.

    If not the fuse, then the element itself may be burned out. This can also be easily checked with a ohmmeter. Or visually sometimes.

    The thermal fuse is generally really easy to replace; the element is a little more work but still doable for someone handy.

    Best of luck,

Roper Electric dryer not heating/knob won't turn [ 4 Answers ]

My 5 year old roper dryer (model: REX4634KQ1) is turning, but not heating and the knob won't turn. Wondering what this may be? All of the lint is cleared out and everything else works fine. Both of these problems happened at the same time. Related or not related? :confused:
