    Kenmore Elite electric dryer shuts down mid cycle
    Kenmore Elite electric dryer shuts down mid cycle, I have opened it up and cleaned out all the lint around the motor and everywhere else inside. I have also tried to run it with the outside vent pipe disconnected so that it just vents inside the house so it is not the vent pipe that is blocked. I start it, the drum turns, the heat works and it does seem to be venting the air, but it still shuts off after 5 minutes or so. I am able to resart it after a few min. Any suggestions?
