Hello Rmcdaniel, thank you for your post!

I see that your post is listed under Frigidaire laundry center, GLET1031FS, and I understand you are having difficulty with your dryer. There are several possible problems in why your dryer does not heat. If your house uses fuses, there are two house fuses that supply voltage to the dryer circuit in your fuse box. If one of the two fuses is blown, the dryer may turn but will not heat. Check and replace fuse in fuse box if necessary. However, if the house has circuit breakers, there may be two breakers with switches that supply voltage to your dryer and if one is tripped the dryer may turn but will not heat. The heater of a dryer requires 220 to 240 volts to operate. If you find that neither of these is causing the problem it could be the heating element preventing the dryer from heating.
