Could be a few things.
1. Have you got 220 volts?
2. If you have proper voltage check your door switch for continuity. If the switch doesn't close the circuit when the door is closed the dryer won't work.
3. Check your thermal fuse for continuity. Should have continuity, if not replace it.

If it's not one of those three things, check back.

hey gearhead 1218
thanks for your advice--but no go. We have 220. I am quite green so dont understand the concept of "continuity". I have located the thermal fuse but again dont grasp how i would properly check for continuity. thanks!

If you're not versed on the operation of an electrical multi-tester then my advice would be to get a pro in to service the unit.
