Its the thermostat, it needs replaced

The heating element is likely burnt out. Most dryers have that behind an access panel on the back. You should check with the place you bought it and see if they have replacement parts. It's not hard to replace these parts on older dryers if you are careful, unplug it first.
Good Luck

It could be the heating element in the bottom of the dryer. Very easy to replace.

take the back off and find the heating element it looks like a coil,its probally burnt in half,just pull on it to stretch it a little and connect the two peices back togeather by wrapping them around each other,oh make sure its unplugged first please.that should work for a long time untill you need to replace the element.it is not dangerous,i have done it to mine lots of times.it saves you some money.

be sure you clean out the lint trap
also check to see if the pilot light is on or the thermostat is working or if any fuses have been blown

take it apart and disconnect the heater part of it. it looks like a long coil of wire stretched along ceramic hangers.
