Whirlpool Dryer Wed4900xw.

Well I had a flood in my basement over Christmas. The dryer is clean out and tumbles fine, the blower is blowing good strong air out the back. I replace the heating element and did a bypass on all of the sensors. Still nothing. It very possible that more than one sensor is bad. I only have one set on alligator clips, but is there anything I may have overlooked. Other than replacing all the sensors. Thanks for any help
