** I kind of was lazy not to clean the vent as the dryer **

That is one of the very worst situations to procrastinate. You got off lucky with just a malfunctioning dryer.

** The motor works fine but it just won't heat up. Did this trip or blow some fuse **

That's possible. You can read about other possibilities at the following link:

- Can anybody tell me the most likely scenarios for lack of heat in an electric dryer?

** or is there some sort of reset switch that I need to push to reset the Dryer. **

There is no such thing on most major appliances.
