Could be one of two things check the element for breaks along the element wire, or touching the casing, if this it needs replacing, or two the heating thermostats need replacing, probably the hot one, check with a multimeter if you have one,these are the two metal round disks that are on the back of the drum.It will be one or the other of these two that is causing the problem.
