It could be the heating element but do not assume it is until you check it. If the element is fine the limits on the heater housing might be tripped and if that is the case the vent needs to be checked for blockage. Birdnest, snow, cobwebs, and such can cause limits to trip. On an electric model the fuse mounted on the blower kills the motor but on a gas model the fuse kills power to the gas valve. I have a full page of dryer repair info and service manual HERE
