A fairly common problem! The official instructions are
Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to
remove dust from storing and shipping.
1. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not
pack the dryer. Allow space for clothes to tumble freely.
2. Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recommended cycle for the type of load being dried. Use the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (,) to dry most heavyweight and medium weight loads. See "Drying, Cycle, and Temperature Tips."
3. Select a temperature setting on models with a Temp/Fabric selector. The cycle descriptions include temperature setting suggestions.
4. Push the START button.

Activate the diagnostic test mode to determine the functionality of the console buttons and the console electronics as a whole. Diagnostic Mode Activation Procedure
Make sure the machine is plugged and in standby mode. That is, no indicator light is on.
Press the following keypad sequence within five seconds: More Time>Less Time>More Time>Less Time. All of the indicator lights should light up and "88" is displayed.
Turn the cycle selector knob one complete rotation. When the knob points to a cycle, the corresponding indicator light should turn off and the machine should beep. Only a beep is heard when the knob points at the large spaces between the Automatic and Manual cycle groups.
A beep should be heard when a button is pressed and the indicator light corresponding to it should turn off.
Any failure on the above tests indicates a faulty console board. Please let me know the result of the test for further troubleshooting and repair guide.
You have an air flow problem. This usually happens when the exhaust pipe/vent gets clogged. Clean/inspect the vent outlet, the pipe, the inlet, and the filter/lint catcher area.
Improper air flow prevents the moisture from being vented out of the dryer.
My guess without seeing the machine is - The motor has gone / failed.
You could get someone to check the brushes on the motor, it's only a 30 minute job.
If the brushes are ok i.e more then 10mm long, I suspect the motor has burnt out if the machine is a number of years old.
Hope this helps
