how to fix a hoover hdv6 tumble dryer?

Machine doesn't start / tumble, belt is OK.
When it's switched on the timer is working but around 20 seconds later the filter light comes on even though
it's clean. The heating element is working as it gets hot in the 20 seconds from pressing the start button.
Is it the thermostat at fault or ??????

no the stat only cuts power to the heating element,if you have a multimeter check motor connector pins for 240vac.no voltage would suggest a bad pcb.if you have power then suspect worn carbon motor brushes.
