Bad heating element or thermal fuse
SOURCE: Electric Dryer problem
the timer has a small motor to advance the timer. the motor is the likely problem. on some old maytags you can get just the motor, but you probably will have to replace the complete timer. hope this helps.

The stepper motor in those timers are prone to giving favorable readings when checked and go back to acting fruity when left to themselves. It's a sticking problem. Try taking the back off the control timer, usually you bend some tangs that hold it on straight, being careful not to overstress them and check the contact points. If they are burnt even slightly then take a file or emory cloth to them, making sure you keep them straight, don't round the corners. Then put the switch back on the head housing without the back on and plug back in. DO NOT TOUCH BACK OF TIMER WHILE PLUGGED IN. Run it through a cycle and see if the motor binds up. It may take a couple of times for it to do it if it's going to. If this doesn't work, then get back to me.

If it has a conventional electro/mechaniacal timer, then the timer is faulty, as it should advance, unless of course it has a time delay function, if it has, make sure it is off.
This probably explains why it is not heating.
Plz rate this solution.Thanks.

It could be several other things thermal fuse, thermal cut out, hi limit thermostat, dryer coils, heat sensor,or igniter. All of these parts are inexpensive and easy to test and replace.There is a video at t http://appliancehelponline.com/gdryertroublevideo.html his will walk you thru the troubleshooting of these components. It may be a different model but the troubleshooting will be the same.You can also enter your model # for diagrams and illustrations. All parts come with installation instructions. Not all models are available. If you need help disassembling your machine there are videos of this also for most styles.
Testimonial: "Thanks I will check out the video now and start testing parts."

Number 7 is your problem most likely. Unplug the dryer.
Remove the dust cover and the filter chute. See the fuse?

I use a shop vac to clean out the dryer.
I always take the drum out and clean her up. I use zoomspout oil on
the idler and rollers because it is safe for dryers and heaters too.
I have a service manual and videos of how to get into your dryer HERE

See if the timer advances in the timed dry or the auto dry cycles. If the timer advances in timed dry but not in auto dry, then you could have a wire connection failure in the orange wire from the heating element to the timer.
If the timer will not advance in either type of cycle, then I recommend checking the timer part number that you are using.
