Hotpoint WDL 520G not drying

Hi. Machine is working fine apart from not drying clothes in dryer cycle. When using dryer at weekend, main trip went on house electrics. reset trip and all ok other than not drying when tried since. Having read numerous articles, suggestions are it could be a problem with Dryer Heating element, Thermostat, Capacitor or PCB. Any suggestions on which to check first? Does tripping power suggest one ahead of another? There's no flashing lights or error messages showing. Any help much appreciated. Thanks
