The thermal fuse being bad would stop it from heating. Jump out the wires and test it. Just don't use the dryer with it jumped out if it works. Tom ApplianceEducator.com

You sound like you have a clogged vent. Which is why your thermal fuse went out. Pull the dryer away from the wall, and take the vent hose off at the dryer, and run it and see how it goes. Also make sure you feel where the hose goes on the dryer, that the air is blowing out hard. Tom ApplianceEducator.com
