Our dryer takes a long time to dry a load, sometimes 2 or 3 full cycles ( 60 minutes per cycle). I started the dryer it is hot when I opened after a few minutes. But when I open after 8 minutes it was cool. Thanks in advance.
SOURCE: dryer takes more than one cycle to dry clothes
Did you clean the entire length of the vent ducting? Or, did you only clean the lint trap on the dryer and the exhaust vent outside? If you didn't clean the ducting as well, you may still have a clog somewhere causing your dryer to be "starved" for air. A dryer needs proper air flow to dry properly. One way to check is to turn the dryer on and go outside to the exhaust vent opening. Feel to see if you have sufficient air flow. If the air flow is weak, you have a clog. If not, you may have a high limit thermostat cutting off prematurely, not allowing the heating element to heat long enough. Check your ducting first and let me know if this helps.

check the vent probly cloged or vent hose kinked, or heater is broken.
SOURCE: dryer is not drying clothes.
well im not going to look up the model # to see if its gas or electric,but check the exhaust tube for blockages
SOURCE: New GE Profile Dryer makes intermittent loud squeeking or rubbing
Your drum may be out of round. The drum belt on the outside of the drum may be rubbing against the cabinet. When the cabinet heats up, the side walls of the cabinet may be bowing inward, thus making contact with the belt on the drum. This would explain why it is intermittant. When the heater turns off, the cabinet cools and the sides bow back out.
SOURCE: GE dryer stops mid-cycle.
I would say thermal fuse, here is a website that will tell you how to check, it also has other possibilities, Hope This Helps Tim:
