I am having problems with my dryer staying on. It is turning on and seems to be working fine (heating up to dry), BUT then is turning itself off after a few minutes. I have replaced the vent hose, and outside vent…hoping that this would fix the problem due to possible clogging, but this did not help at all. Can anyone please tell me what parts would fix this problem?
Thank You,
MAY
Hi.
Does the dryer stops all together or only heating part?
What do you do to restart it?
It sounds like dying motor.Remove the front panel and clean the motor from the lint. See if that helps.
Post he results.

The dryer just stops all together. It was working just fine before this. I have never before had a problem.
I just hit the start button to turn it back on. It will ONLY restart after it has cooled down inside the dryer.
Thanks so much,
Marsha
Hi.
Clean the motor first and if that doesn’t help -replace it
