I have a kenmore dryer that seems to be working fine but I'm getting an error code "hE" at end of cycle. As per manual it is "Invalid heating temp when running the dryer". Dryer gets quite hot.

The 417 prefix means that the dryer was manufactured by Frigidaire. Frigidaire dryers use E60 to indicate the control board thinks that there is a stuck button on the control panel. Press each button separately and see if any seem to be stuck in one position. Replace any stuck buttons. If the buttons are fine, than you have a wiring issue between the control board and the control panel or the control board is faulty.

This is an error code for "Unit cycles more than 9 times per hour". The service manual says the possible causes are "Unit oversized" and "Low load conditions".
One of the first things to do when a F2 error code appears is to perform a simple reset. To do this, turn the dryer off and disconnect power to the dryer. Wait 30 seconds to one minute, restore power and turn the dryer on. Choose a new dryer cycle and push "Start" to begin. If the error code does not return to the display, the reset was successful and no further action is necessary. Hope this helps.
if you set timer on time dry it will count down but if you have it set on more or less it will not advance without heat,change out the heater and you will be fine
you can install a higher temperature cycling thermostat. They normally have a 140* cycling thermostat. Make sure heat element is not broken. Some models have a double element hand only half will work. post make and model
The thermistor monitors the exhaust temperature
and cycles the high-limit thermostat on
and off to maintain the desired temperature.
1. Turn the dryer off but keep the electrical
supply connected.
2. Make sure that the dryer is empty and that
the lint screen is clean.
3. Close the dryer door.
4. Select Heavy Duty, Timed Dry, More Time
or Less Time, End of Cycle Signal (Louder)
and Start.
5. If error codes E1 or E2 flash on the display
after 1 minute and the dryer turns off,
the thermistor, or the wire harness, is either
shorted or open. Check the wire connections
at the thermistor or the machine
control electronics board. If wiring checks
okay, replace the thermistor.
6. If the dryer seems to operate normally, remove
the exhaust vent and start the dryer.
7. Select the desired temperature cycle to be
tested, and select 20 minutes of Timed Dry
heat using the More Time or Less Time
pushbuttons.
