It could be a thermostat or possibly the ignitor.

Default Dryer spins but no heat/ Resolved

Nat,
Thanks for your response. I also reviewed the trouble shooting steps for this model dryer. It stated that sometimes the igniter will not work because of build up of dust. So I removed the back panel and vaccumed out all the dust around the igniter etc.. I turned the dryer on and it worked! It started blowing hot air. Thought this resolution may help someone who is having the same problem.
