Thread: Dryer without heat

  1. #1

    Dryer without heat

    Model Number: 110.600.72991
    Brand: Sears Kenmore
    Age: 1-5 years

    First time posting.
    My daughter has a Kemnore Elite Dryer that does not heat. The high temp cut-off switch keeps blowing. We have done the following; cleaned the entire exaust system, shortened the output hose to the outside to about 9 inches,replaced the heating element, replaced the thermal cut-off switch and thermostat(twice), and performed the troubleshoot tests that came with the dryer. Tests were ok. The dryer worked with a damp towel but when we put a small load of towels in, the cut-off switch blew again causing the heat to stop while the drum continued to operate. We have spent too much time and money on this problem. I am hoping that someone can lead us in the right direction and help us solve this problem.
    Thank you in advance.

    Try running the dryer on an air dry (no heat) cycle and see if the dryer heats or not on this cycle.
