Hello,
I have a kenmore elite he3 front load dryer about 6 years old, it does not seem to heat up as much as it has been, could it be one of the heating elements is out or temp sensor is not working properly, is it a DIY jobber?
Many thanks for your help

Clean the exhaust vent aout thoroughly all the way to where it exits the house. Make sure the flapper is free to open at the outside of the house. Also clean out the blower housing. Any restriction(lint build up) will cause this problem
