Dryer no heat

Dryer Repair

Need help with Dryer.

No heat all of a sudden. Need to know what parts need to be checked. Can I get a possible list.

Did not trip but shut off curcuit breaker and turned it back on.

Changed out heat element, still doesn’t work.

Disconnected wires from list below and measured Ohms and this is what I got and need feedback.

Heating element-10 ohms
Thermal fuse (2 blue wires) .4 ohms
Thermal cut off kit?
top thermostat-no reading when unplugged
-when plugged in 9.75 Ohms
Bottom themostat-.8 ohms
Cycling thermostat- (4 wires)
red-red .4 ohms
violet-violet 7.04 ohms
As far as I know, I’m measuring correctly. Any comments would be helpful.

Thank you

Hi.

Based on the information you provided you need to replace the thermal cut-off kit 279816

After replacing it check the dryer vent (internal and external) for restrictions.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and http://www.appliancepartspros.com/03-bulkhead-parts-parts-for-whirlpool-ied4400sq0.html

Post the results.
