almost certainly the heating element has gone. disconnet the wires to the element and check with a multimeter.
replacing an element is fairly simple diy.

What is a multimeter? Where do i get a new element from? x0

a multimeter can be used to check the continuity of the circuit.
heating elements are cheapest on ebay.
