Hi Norm
We had a dryer like that. It conked out a few years ago. No heat but did not seem to be the element which I had replaced at least once.
Wet weather so some urgency. Bought a new one looks nearly the same. When we got it working we found to our amazement that it reversed rotation regularly and so the clothes did not end up in a tight roll any more and dried better.
Not sorry the old faithful is gone now. Sometimes new technology is good
