    I assume that this is an electric clothes dryer. There are two temperature sensors. Rather than trying to figure out which one is defective just replace both. They are usually round about 1" in diameter and have tabs on either side for mounting screws.

    Either your timer is bad or the temperature sensor is bad. Does it run for the entire time you set just not heating near the end or does it shut off completely and do nothing?
