    Maytag dryer model LDE9606ACE not heating
    Electric dryer. Replaced heat element and thermostat. Checked vents and fuses. Still no heat. Any suggestions before I spend more money on different parts? Lights work, spins, everything else seems fine.

    It makes more sense to use a meter to find out the problem rather than just guessing. Trace the power failure to the source by unplugging drier and put one lead of ohm meter on one prong of plug- right or left side- and find where there is no continuity. When you touch the two leads together you will see how it should read when you have continuity. Turn on drier and push in door switch. Test door switch first and then leave it closed and go around to the circuits supplying element. You should find the open circuit very quickly. Make sure drier is clean of all dirt as this usually causes safeties to open stopping the heat. DrTom4444
