    Kenmore Electric dryer does not heat
    I have a Kenmore Elite Electric dryer (model# 110.63952102). The dryer runs without heat. The relay seems fine. I would like to check the heat element and I saw it located on the right side from the front panel. How can I take it out and how do check it? Thanks

    Check it without removing.Unplug unit. Just remove 1 wire from it and check for continuity. If none element is bad and needs replaced

    Thanks Doug. Bad means open (high resistance), am I right? Some elements (such as thermal cut-off) are very hard to reach. Do you have any trick to do it? Thanks.
