Hello,

Sounds like the motor is heating up and cutting out on its thermal overload. If it starts and then shuts off, and if you wait a few minutes and it starts again only to shut off again is sounds like the motor is on its way out. You can open the dryer and clean all the lint out especially near the motor and that might help.
