    Samsung dryer won't heat

    Model Number: DV218aew/xaa
    Brand: Samsung
    Age: 6-10 years

    Samsung heater won't heat up. We have changed the heating element, fuse, moisture sensor, thermostat & control board. Checked voltage and everything is ok. This has been going on now for 3 weeks. I'm about to go insane.

    Do you have the wiring diagram?

    I am assuming that the power was checked at the terminal strip in the unit and there was 240 volts between L1 and L2.

    I do not have a wiring diagram for this unit but on most units the only two things left are:

    1. the hi-limit thermostat.

    2. The centrifugal switch on the motor. There are two of these. They close when the motor gets close to operating speed. One of them completes the heater cirsuit. This ensures that the heater does not come on until there is air flow.
