Dryer would run, but not heat
Removed the back panel, found the fuse and replaced it. Easiest thing I've ever done! I was expecting it not to be the problem, but I started with the "most common" issue via the website. Voila...it was the problem!

Dryer was not producing heat
Installed new heating element. Simply watched the provided youtube video and replaced the heating element. Job took approximately 30 minutes from start to finish, very simple fix. Saved a couple hundred bucks by doing it myself and I have limited knowledge on dryers!
