I had a problem last year with no heat in my dryer. I replaced the coils and was up and running…I am experiencing the exact same issues…turn dryer on…it goes around and around but no heat…I replaced the coils again but this did not fix my problem. I also cleaned out all of the dust inside the unit to make sure that was not an issue…I’m lost…any suggestions? The dryer is rotating, but only cold air is coming out.

Unplug the dryer, and take the back panel off the dryer. Once the panel is off you will see a white thin piece that is about an inch and a half long, by a half inch wide. That is the thermal fuse. Take the 2 wires off of it, and put the terminal ends together, and then put some tape around the the terminal ends to keep them together, and to cover the metal terminals so they do not hit metal. Then plug it in and see if it works. If so, do not run the dryer that way, the fuse is a satey, replace it. Tom http://www.applianceeducator.com
