    Dryer heating coil only has 120v running through it

    Model Number: glet1142cso
    Brand: Frigidaire
    Age: More than 10 years

    Frigidaire Electrolux Gallery Series Stackable washer and dryer
    model GLET1142CSO

    replaced the heating coil since it shorted out on the back of the heating coil housing , with a volt meter I can only see 120volts running through heating coil.
    checked thermo stats seam to be ok .

    any help from any one would be a life saver
    Thanks Robert

    Have to checked to see if you have 240V at the outlet and where the cord attaches to the unit?

    The next things to check would be the control thermostat, high limit thermostat, and timer. You will have to unplug the dryer and you can check the thermostats for continuity. The timer you will have to use the chart on the schematic to test the contacts for continuity.
