Dryer starts then a few minutes later stops and is really hot

Hello..

I have a GE dryer that starts but then stops a few minutes later and the dryer is really hot. I have cleaned all lint out of the dryer and it still does the same thing. My dryer model number is DBXR463EDWW.

    Yes. When we put clothes in it seems to run fine and the drum turns. Then about 10 minutes later, it shuts off and the top of the dryer is really really hot and the clothes seem to be warm as if it is trying to dry. After the hurricane this year we noticed that the dryer had condensation in it before using the dryer even after a few days of not using it. I thought it was strange but because of the hurricane thought water might have gotten into the hose.

    We do have a heat setting of delicates/low heat, fluff, cottons/regular heat, and easy care medium heat. Where is the thermostat located? Also could it be both the thermostat and the motor? Thank you for all of your help and your quick responses. :)

    How can you get replacement parts? I know GE has a website. Would you get it from them? Thanks again! :)

    For the motor there is motor and pulley assembly, strap motor,and motor support. Which one do I need?

Dryer over heating

It sounds like the motor is tripping out on the thermal protector.

I would start by taking the dryer apart and cleaning all of the lint out, Make sure to clean the venting.

while you have it apart look at the seals and see how worn they are.

How old is the dryer? How long is the venting? is the weather hood outside blocked?

Let me know if you have any more questions.
