An open heating element will not show continuity. If the element tests good, test thermal fuses\/thermostats next.\n    <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"box\">\n    <div class=\"t3\" style=\"margin-top:0\">2) Why does the dryer still run if one power leg is missing?<\/div>\n    <p style=\"margin-top:0\">\n      Some dryer motors and controls can run on partial supply, but the heater may require the full circuit. If it tumbles but won  t heat, always consider supply issues.\n    <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"box\">\n    <div class=\"t3\" style=\"margin-top:0\">3) Should I replace the thermal fuse when replacing the element?<\/div>\n    <p style=\"margin-top:0\">\n      If the fuse is open, yes  otherwise the dryer still won  t heat. If it  s not open, replace only if the kit\/service instructions recommend it for your model.\n    <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"box\">\n    <div class=\"t3\" style=\"margin-top:0\">4) What causes repeat heating element burnouts?<\/div>\n    <p style=\"margin-top:0\">\n      Restricted airflow and overheated\/loose terminals are the most common. Heater life is strongly affected by temperature cycling and operating environment.\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/tutco.com\/conductive\/heating-elements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">\u53c2\u8003<\/a>.\n    <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"box\">\n    <div class=\"t3\" style=\"margin-top:0\">5) Do I need special certification to replace the element?<\/div>\n    <p style=\"margin-top:0\">\n      Laws differ by region. For many homeowners it  s a DIY task, but if wiring is burned, voltage testing is required, or you  re unsure, hire a professional.\n    <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"box\">\n    <div class=\"t3\" style=\"margin-top:0\">6) Can I reuse discolored spade terminals?<\/div>\n    <p style=\"margin-top:0\">\n      It  s risky. Discoloration often indicates overheating and loss of spring tension. Replace them to prevent hot spots.\n    <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"box\">\n    <div class=\"t3\" style=\"margin-top:0\">7) Is it normal for a heater coil to glow?<\/div>\n    <p style=\"margin-top:0\">\n      Some coils can glow under certain airflow and load conditions. Uneven glow, arcing, or burning odor is not normal  stop and recheck airflow and seating.\n    <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"box\">\n    <div class=\"t3\" style=\"margin-top:0\">8) What  s the best single thing to do to extend element life?<\/div>\n    <p style=\"margin-top:0\">\n      Keep airflow strong  clean vents end-to-end and prevent crushed ducting. Lower operating temperature and stable cycling extend heater life.\n    <\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div id=\"sources\" class=\"t2\">\u53c2\u8003\u6587\u732e &amp; \u5fc5\u9808\u5185\u90e8\u30ea\u30f3\u30af<\/div>\n  <div class=\"box\">\n    <div class=\"t3\" style=\"margin-top:0\">References used<\/div>\n    <ul>\n      <li>\n        TUTCO    heating element definition, heater life, and integration considerations:\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/tutco.com\/conductive\/heating-elements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/tutco.com\/conductive\/heating-elements<\/a>\n      <\/li>\n      <li>\n        Whirlpool    element replacement best practices (verify correct replacement; tight connections; safe power restoration):\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whirlpoolwaterheaters.com\/support\/help\/element-was-out-of-range\/24\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/www.whirlpoolwaterheaters.com\/support\/help\/element-was-out-of-range\/24<\/a>\n      <\/li>\n      <li>\n        Hudson Reed    example of a spec-forward heater listing (1000W, IP67, UL, materials, warranty) for a different application:\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/usa.hudsonreed.com\/1000-plug-in-watt-electric-heating-element-76309\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">https:\/\/usa.hudsonreed.com\/1000-plug-in-watt-electric-heating-element-76309<\/a>\n      <\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n\n    <div class=\"hr\"><\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"t3\" style=\"margin-top:0\">\u5fc5\u8981\u306a\u5185\u90e8\u30a2\u30f3\u30ab\u30fc<\/div>\n    <ul>\n      <li><a href=\"https:\/\/jinzho.com\/product-category\/heating-element\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u52a0\u71b1\u30a8\u30ec\u30e1\u30f3\u30c8<\/a><\/li>\n      <li><a href=\"https:\/\/jinzho.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u767a\u71b1\u4f53\u30e1\u30fc\u30ab\u30fc<\/a><\/li>\n      <li><a href=\"https:\/\/jinzho.com\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u767a\u71b1\u4f53\u5de5\u5834<\/a><\/li>\n      <li><a href=\"https:\/\/jinzho.com\/product-category\/die-casting-heating-solutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u30c0\u30a4\u30ab\u30b9\u30c8\u52a0\u71b1\u30bd\u30ea\u30e5\u30fc\u30b7\u30e7\u30f3<\/a><\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n\n    <p class=\"small\" style=\"margin-top:10px\">\n      Disclaimer: This is general information.
