What exactly is wrong with your dryer?

The best thing you can do is to check the thermal fuse (#7 on the bulkhead part break down diagram) for continuity.
Replace it if it's open.

According to the manufacturer instructions, if the thermal fuse is open, the cycling thermostat has to be replaced too.
