- Test element with multimeter — open circuit or short to casing.

- Reassemble, test — hot air, laundry dries.
Mistakes
- Confusing with clogged filter — filter clean but no heat.
- Not checking thermal fuse during element replacement.
- Wrong wattage element.
- Running dryer without heat — wasted electricity.
- Not cleaning duct — blocked duct caused the burnout.
Preparation
- Dryer model.
- Describe: cold air, error, wet laundry.

Case from Warsaw
Client in Żoliborz: Electrolux — drum spinning, fan running, laundry wet after an hour. Element had an open circuit, thermal fuse also blown (one-shot type). Replaced both. Air duct 70% blocked with lint — the root cause. Cleaned. Test — laundry dry in 50 min. One hour. Tip: if the element burns out, always check the duct — otherwise the new element will overheat too.
