You need to replace the heating element again You may have purchased a defective Heating element. Just as your previous heating element died, from time to time, brand new productsare alse dead on arrival. That seems to be your problem, once you purchase a new working heating element,it should heat the water and then fix your problem.

I have a dryer, used only 11-12 times, but over a year old (2nd home). At first, dryer wouldn't heat I have a dryer, used only 11-12 times, but over a year old (2nd home). At first, dryer wouldn't heat up.

I replaced 2 resettable switches (limit switch I think) and then electric dryer heated up. But now it gets so hot, you can't touch the dryer and blows the thermal fuse within 10 minutes. If I bypass thermal fuse (not safe, I know) it will run but the heat will burn you.

The heating element ohms out, but could it still be bad? What am I missing here? There is not but so many parts and I have replaced thermal fuse 3 times and the two other switches once.

Whirlpool (according to Best Buy)won't do anything because it is over 12 months old, can I fix it or am I better off with a new dryer. I have check vents, they are clear, and plumbed with hard metal, not flex duct. Sounds like the cycling switch thermostat is bad or is the wrong one...should be two thermostats 1 high limit 200 degrees or higher 1 cycling switch usually 140 to 160 degrees and one thermal fuse...if the thermal fuse is blowing this indicates either one of the limits is bad or to high a temp...the cycling switch should be mounted where the air exists the dryer so it can sense the dryer temp ....the high limit is usually mounted at the bottom of the element and the thermal fuse should be mounted close to the cycling limit...if the dryer is getting hot the element is not bad...I would check the cycling switch as it is obviously not working or to high a temp...whirlpool sells a kit that has all three items in one bag to replace your existing ones...the cycling limit switch controls the drum temperature...the high limit protects the element in case the cycling switch goes bad and the thermal fuse protects the dryer if it stays to hot..

Hmmm, looks like you really need to get it done by a pro. If you're unsure you're capable of doing it yourself then it's better if you bring it to your nearby technician. If you insist on doing it yourself, expect of damaging it more.

It should have two heating elements. Sometimes in hard water conditions, heavy deposits will form in the bottom of the tank and impede flow of water around the element. The only way I know of how to clean that stuff out is to jab a stick in there to knock it loose.

But be careful of damaging the inner liner of the tank. To remove the loose junk, use a shop vac with a hunk of garden hose duct taped to the end. Check your electrical connections.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
