Hi,

Our dryer is not heating - I am suspecting the
heating element

A copy:

Q - My electric dryer runs but will not heat, what could stop my dryer
from heating ?

A - Things that could stop a electric dryer from heating:

- house fuse or breaker ( needs 2! )... - heating element ... - burnt
wire ... - thermostats ... thermal fuse ( not all models )... - motor
heat switch ... - timer ... - selector switch ... - burnt power
cord/plug ...

A ohm meter test for these parts is below....

I know it is at the
back of the drum but the back panel does not
easily come off

Link above also has some take apart helps....but there is more thna one
version of a GE dryer.
