Frigidaire GLTE2940FS 5.8 cu ft Gallery Electric Dryer E64 Error Fix: Heating Element Open Circuit

The heating element has an open circuit and cannot heat. Measure heating element resistance — should read approximately 10-20 ohms for a 240V element. An infinite (OL) reading confirms an open element. Check the element wire connections — sometimes a terminal burns off before the element itself fails. Replace the heating element assembly if it tests open.
