Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the easy cause: unplug it for a minute and try again, since a simple reset clears more faults than people expect. Also, confirm the dryer has power and rule out anything obvious — a tripped breaker, an unlatched door, a blocked vent.
