The heating element itself typically does not require routine maintenance. However, to ensure the longevity of your dryer and its components, including the heating element, consider the following general maintenance practices:

• Rens fnugfilter: Rengør fnugfilteret før eller efter hver vask for at opretholde korrekt luftgennemstrømning og forhindre overophedning.
• Inspektion af udluftning: Periodically check and clean the dryer's exhaust vent system to prevent lint buildup, which can restrict airflow and cause the dryer to overheat or work inefficiently.
• Undgå overbelastning: Do not overload the dryer, as this can strain components and reduce drying efficiency.

Fejlfinding

If your dryer is not heating after replacing the element, consider these common troubleshooting steps:

• Tjek strøm: Ensure the dryer has power and the circuit breaker has not tripped.
• Bekræft forbindelser: Re-check all electrical connections to the heating element, thermal fuse, and thermostats for tightness and correct placement. Loose connections can prevent heating.
• Thermal Fuse/Thermostat: A faulty thermal fuse or thermostat (often located near the heating element) can prevent the element from receiving power. These components are designed to trip or fail if the dryer overheats. They may need to be tested for continuity or replaced if defective.
• Heating Element Continuity: If you have a multimeter, you can test the new heating element for continuity. A lack of continuity indicates a faulty element.
