Have you tried it in all the dry cycles? If it works in others, the timer is probably the culprit.

That depends on other factors. Try setting the timer to a timed cycle (any amount of minutes). Now just look and listen...does the timer advance? If yes, open the door after a minute or so, and feel if there's heat.
