We had a Whirlpool electric dryer that did the same thing. If your dryer was previously clogged, you could have completely fried that circuit. Ours would start, but would not dry. We had someone take a look at it and the circuit fuse had to be replaced. He was really honest and said we could probably by a complete washer and dryer set for the same cost of labor and repair. So, we did replace our dryer. They just don't make them like they used to anymore.

Good luck!
