More than 10 years

Bosch 500 Nexxt electric dryer, model #WTMC3321US/07. Spins and has air movement but no heat. Disconnected the back hose to check and the air was following free but cold. Tried the thermal reset but it wasn't popped out. Also checked for continuity across it so I don't think it's burned out
I think I'll buy a new heating coil but is there any way to check if the current one is broken? Don't want to spend time and money changing it if I end up with no heat still. It's about 12 years old but was working fine up until a load just had no warmth.
Thanks!

Hi,

To know if the heating element is bad or not, you will need to ohm test it with a multimeter. Make sure the dryer is unplugged before you access it and ohm test it.

When you click the link to the heating element below, you will see two videos, one of how to access it, and the other of how to ohm test it.

Here's the heating element for your model:
