You need to replace the thermal fuse and the timer. A bad timer will over draw a thermal fuse and cause it to blow.
Please remember to unplug the dryer before servicing

Ist thing to check on a dryer not heating is the voltage at the outlet. Make sure you have 220/240 volts. The dryer can run on 110/120 volts but won't heat. This can be from a bad breaker/blown fuse. On your dryer it is most likely the thermal fuse on the heater housing or possibly the element itself. If you have a voltmeter you can check each for continuity. The thermal fuse is a smaller thermostat at the top of the heater housing.

Hi, very common problem.
The problem is with the gas coils.
When they get weak, they only come on for about 10 minutes and then the machine will blow cold air. There are 2 of them with one being the booster coil. They come in a pair and run less than $20.
Best of luck. Please e-mail me if you have any other questions.
