I still have a Carlton 3100?

I still have a Carlton 3100 and had it for the past twenty plus years, it worked fine until 2 days ago, it still rotates fine but suddenly no heat...whats the problem and how do I fix it.

Cheers Tracey

Had the same problem with mine, it turned out to be the thermo switch that lives just under the heater eliments. I found one on Ebay - OTTER V1 Series Thermal Switch Open Type 54 Deg.C (Pk2). fixed mine, all I need to find now is a belt before the existing one gives up.
