Could be that the belt has broken.

Historically, there's been a lot of problems with overheating of dryers which subsequently caught fire as lint had got to the elements.

Have you checked yours against this?


You might be entitled to a replacement.

If not, changing a belt is possible but it is a bit fiddly if you don't have much DIY experience.
