What's Happening
The heating element has failed or has an open circuit. The dryer runs but produces no heat. A blown thermal fuse or high-limit thermostat can also cause this error.
How to Fix It
Disconnect power and test the heating element for continuity with a multimeter. If it reads open, replace the element. Also check the thermal fuse and high-limit thermostat — a blown fuse mimics this error.
