What would cause a dryer to stop working?
Clogged air vents are a common cause for poor airflow in clothes dryer systems. One way to see if your dryer's air vent is clogged is by turning on your dryer and going outside to feel the flow of air leaving the vent. If it's slow and not very warm, your vent may be due for a good cleaning.
How do I know if my dryer fuse is blown?
As listed on diy.repairclinic.com, and talked about the YouTube video above, checking your fuse requires a bit of know-how. We do not recommend attempting this on your own, but rather suggest you call a professional repair man. With that disclaimer out of the way, here is what diy.repairclinic.com had to say:
Unplug your dryer and ensure it is no longer connected to the gas or electric.
Locate the thermal fuse, as above.

Test the fuse with a multimeter.
