You will need to check the element, its possible that it burned out.

Feel behind the dryer while its running, around where the element is at, it should be getting hot, if it isn't getting hot, then test the element for voltage across the two leads of the element. (where the wires hook to), if you read 220-240 volts here, and its not heating, then your element is bad.

An additional check is to check the lint duct, through the wall, and under the drum where the blower is at, many times that gets clogged and causes inefficient heating.
