Would the board cause it not to heat as well?
Thank you for your help.

Yes, seen that happen many times.

But I always first check the voltage and breaker to the dryer.

Check your home breaker box to the dryer, I've seen 1 of the dual breakers trip and cause this.

Thanks for the help. I will keep you posted.

Ok, sounds good, yes please keep us posted.

Installed board. Dryer runs full cycle now but no heat. Breaker is not tripped and there is good air flow. Would you replace the breaker first or look at the heating element?
Thanks!

Only way to know for sure is to use a volt meter and test your volts, did you do that?

Hate to see you change an element and it still not work, only to find out it was the voltage thats the problem.

Just replaced breaker. Still no heat.

Ok, just because you changed the breaker means nothing without verifying volts, I've seen new breakers still not produce 240 volts, due to either a bad neutral drop or wiring problems to the dryer outlet.

But you can go ahead and look at your element, you may see a broken element wire. Lets just hope so.

Use the repair manual I posted in post#2 to take the front off and drum out.

Turn the breaker off first before opening it up.

If a broken heating element wire isn't obvious, You would HAVE TO HAVE a volt/ohm meter to diagnose it, OR get a friend or family member that may have one.
