Samsung front load dryer spins with no heat. The heat element tests good, thermostat tests good, thermo fuse tests good and there are no vent clogs. Any other suggestions?

A model number might be helpful.

The first thing to check on an electric dryer with no heat is the power.

Try flipping the breaker off/on slowly a couple times. Sometimes you can loose half the line without actually tripping the breaker.
Check the voltage at the wall receptacle
L1 to L2 should be 240 volts
L1 to Neutral and L2 to Neutral, both should be 120 volts.
If OK
Unplug the unit and check the wires at the terminal strip in the machine to make sure none are loose or burned out
If OK
Check the power at the terminal strip.
Do this with the unit/heater off and on.
Be careful as 240 volts is lethal !!!
