john,
I have a silly question......Did you check the outlet to make sure you had 220V(+/- 10% variance) or the breaker to see if it had partially tripped?

Take the filter's housing off and get that crap out of the blower housing. get the filter housing clean. Make sure the air flow is there.That skinny white fuse is tied into the door switch. It detects excessive heat in the blower housing. It is probably blown due to excessive lint buildup inside that filter housing. Replace that fuse and clean that filter housing.
