Well all dryer made have protection for safety.
lid switch dead? (loves to fail first)
heats then fails or never ever gets hot at all first started cold
electric resistance heat I guess sure Elements.
over TEMP sensors tripped. (good or bad) if is too hot the trip IS GOOD.
they are called by me Permissive's.
if you get the schematic on the dryer all this magic is not gone.
most appliances of you pop the hood (joking 1/2_) the lid of this huge box comes off and under that list is huge envelope with the
full schematic inside, seen this vast times. so I look every time.
or buy the service manual online first.
then leap.
then the voltmeter AC never lies, it shows the point of failure
on the BLACK hot side(USA colors);.
this works easy doing so but 240vac is not for kids to play with.
it can be lethal, easy.!!! my new house I just built is full of GFI breakers. German made.
do all tests 1 hand in a pocket, make sure the dryer ground is good even up graded the service breaker to GFIC , so humans .
are protected. best.
the rear of the dryer says stay out for a reason,
cause2:
if it gets hot and fails.
the filer screens are lint packed
or the exhaust pipe to outside out is full of lint packed up.
if all this is true (cause2) run the dryer with no vent pipe
short time, to test theory.
also with that pipe off look INSIDE that source pipe
is it all packed up????????? huge common cause here.
no age of dryer told.
1 year
30 years?

seems to me 2002 made, so 24 year old
did you run it for 24 years and fails now?
time matters huge on machines, inservice time
and that nasty thing called lint.
some homes the vent can be 35 foot long.
or 2 foot. to reach the sky, or side of home
locations mater.
SOURCE: heating element in Crosley Clothes dryer
Before you replace the heating element, check the thermal fuse. All heaters have safety thermal fuse. This opens in case the thermostat fails. This is normally attached on or near the heating element, looks like diode. (When replacing, do not solder ! this will damage the fuse)
SOURCE: blowing cold air-no heat to dry clothing-how do i know it is the heating element that is bad?
you have to see if you see any broken wire on it,also there should be a fuse on the top left side of the heater box at might be bad,let me know what you find-mike
SOURCE: Clothes dryer not producing heat
Check voltage at the receptacle first. The motor and timer operate on 120VAC. The heating element requires 208/240VAC to operate. Remove power from the unit. You can check the heating element, thermostats and thermal fuses using an ohm meter across each components terminals with one wire removed. The thermal fuses and thermostats should read zero ohms. The heating element will read low ohms (20 to 40). Successful heater operation still depends on the motor centrifugal switch being closed. Depending on the model, you need the heat circuit in the timer or electronic control to be closed.
I hope this helps you.

Your heating element is dying. A new element runs 'bout $40. It'san easy fix. Couple screws .
SOURCE: kenmore series 70 dryer will
If heating element was replaced and still no heat, Then what I would do is test the voltage current in the wiring and see if there is actually power to the element.
All parts to make dryer heat are:
heating element
thermal fuse
thermostat
timer
any one of these units can be faulty
