My GUESS is the machine was either operated without the lint screen and an item made its way near the exhaust fan or piece of the lint screen itself has broken loose and made its way near the fan. The sand noise would likely be debris being swept up by what ever got into the fan duct, then through the fan leaving the item stuck near the fan. I suppose it would be possible for lint to build up in the internal duct and it dislodged... but not likely unless poor exhaust or extreme exhaust vent length. But I would expect other complaints if that were the case.
SOURCE: Whirlpool Duet Electric Dryer will not get hot
Here are the source codes that pop up on the dryer with the "fix" PF Power failure "PF" flashes to indicate that a power failure occurred while the dryer was running. Press HOLD TO START to continue the cycle, or press OFF/Pause to clear the display.

SOURCE: Whirlpool Duet dryer not drying like it used to
If your duet isn't heating properly and you have taken care of the lint problem then you could have one of two problems. Either you have a bad heating element or you have a bad fuse or temperature sensor.
If your dryer is not heating at all then it is most likely the fuse or temp sensor. If it is heating and just not enough it is probably a bad heating element.
Both problems would require a repairman to come and fix normally, however if you believe it is the heating element that can usually be replaced by the homeowner without too much trouble. Just make sure to ask where it is located from whatever place you but the new element from.
SOURCE: Dryer making a high pitch squeeling sound when
The idler bearing that keeps tension on the belt is going out due to heat leaching the grease out of it. Have it replaced.
SOURCE: dryer makes a high pitch squeaking noise...
This could be a dry support bearing, a dried out drum seal or something stuck in the drum seal. If I could hear it I would know better where to start. Listen and try to locate the source from the above list. It could be the belt but that is not as common.
