Dryer Repair- Replacing the Heating Element (Whirlpool Part #279838)

[partselect]

@AutomaticImprov What's your dryer's model number? I need that so I can provide you with accurate information. I have an idea of what the part is but I need the model number to confirm it. I'll also email you as well.

My dryers layout looks very much like this model but the angled assembly that holds the heating element is one solid piece.  It does not have the lower half that removes nicely. The entire angled assembly seems to be firmly attached to the dryer frame with no screws in evidence. Any idea what this is and how I tackle it?

I hope I can fix my Whirlpool Dryer Model LER6620PQ0. Which is working and spinning clothes but not drying no heat at all.

Hiw do you tell if it's this or something else? Every thing works on ours except the heat (and i think the timer thing isn't counting down either) I has resistance in the element of like 10 ohms which seems pretty high. I think that way it isn't working to much resistance
