If the element has failed you will still have 240V going to the element itself: it just won't be causing the element to heat up.
Make sure the dryer is unplugged!
Then take the back off the dryer and pull the element out - it's usually held by just a few screws.
BEFORE YOU UN-CLIP THE WIRES FROM THE ELEMENT write down which wires for the element go where. The wires have clips that will slide right off the element.
Take it to your local hardware or appliance store with the dryer's make, model number and serial number. (That information can be copied from the appliance's rating plate which is may be on the back panel and/or may be fixed just inside the front door.)
Buy a new element which is an exact replacement for the old one and put it back into the dryer in the reverse order that you took out the old one.

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

There are several things you can try before you call a repair technician.1. Have you tried plugging something else into that outlet?If it works and not your dryer, then you know the dryer is the problem.2. Have you cleaned the lint trap and behind the dryer thoroughly? You need good air circulation for the dryer to work properly.
i would recamend hiring and electricion or mechanic or some sort of specialist to come look at it. or even buy a manual on the maytag dryer would be a smart choice.
Heating device or heating element.
DC voltage can be used to run almost any device utilizing an electric heating element, including resistive baseboard and electric water heaters. In these applications, electrical current flowing in a heating element produces heat due to resistance.

In general a water heater will only last so long.The major problems are with the thermostat and the heating element.You'll have to replace the thermostat occasionally.If the heating element goes out it's time for a new water heater.
This is a 240 volt, two chimney heater (1500 watts per chimney) with a double pole thermostat. If the heater is not heating at all, indicates thermostat or electric source issue, if one element is heating and second is not, indicates one of the elements is burned out.
Yes heating element is burner assembly.
the heating element is gone out
where is the heating element on a kenmore series 400
It could be caused by a damaged heating element. You should have the heating element checked by a professional. Try cleaning the dryer first. Remove lint clogging the exhaust vent. Overheating in the washer might cause the heating element to shut off safely. Also check if the dryer is plugged correctly.
The heating element is on the bottom in the back, if you pull the front base panel off, you can look back and see the element against the back of the dryer. You can undo two screws and pull the element out. "MAKE SURE TO UNPLUG THE DRYER FIRST SO YOU DO NOT GET SHOCKED" Jeremy
The heating coil/element has probably gone out.
Actually it depends upon the type of dryer. So according to ur model no contact ur dryer dealer.
no this product has a built in heating element.
One thing that could be wrong with the dryer is a bad heating element.
There are two circuits in your dryer. One runs the motor, the other the heating element. Something in your heating element circuit is broken, and the most likely culprit is the element. To check it, unplug the dryer, take the back off, find the element, disconnect one of the two wires and put an ohmmeter across the two connections. If it reads infinity, change the element.
Electricity is changed to heat in the heating element and motion in the blower motor
Likely due to a lint accumulation on or near the heating element.
