My heating element went out on Monday and I ordered a new one and it came in yesturday so I replaced it just as the old one was hooked up and when I plugged it in and tried to start it a spark flew out the back of the dryer. I then unplugged it and rechecked everything that I did with the heating element and plugged it back in and it came on as long as it is on a timed setting it will come on automatically when you shut the door and run the cycle. It will not start with the start button. I am not sure what I need to replace to fix this problem. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
