The number one reason for this problem is the lint filter. A build up there can result in lint clinging to the seal on the door, preventing proper closing, or lint bypassing the filter and building up in the exaust tube or around any sensors.
With the Electrolux there is a special sensor that decides when a load is dry enough.
Another possibility is a buildup of lime in the drum. This blocks the action of the sensor. This can be helped by wiping the inside of the drum several times with vinigar. DO NOT use abrasives or scratchers.
The third most likely is that the washer is not spinning out enough of the water or a load that is too large. This results in a situation beyond the limits of the sensor. Manuals library does have a pdf file for this dryer. Page 9 gives several troubleshooting tips.

I suspect either the lint trap is completely stopped up or the dryer hose is clogged up. From the limited information I have to go on I doubt it is a thermal fuse.

SOURCE: Dryer heats up, but won't dry clothes well

Also check your vents in the machine and the wall. Pull the machine away from the wall and feel how strong air is coming out. After cleaning the machine, run it one load disconnected from the wall, and one load connected. This will tell you if your wall vent is clogged.

SOURCE: Dryer will not keep constant heat

clean your vent that goes out side Thats what does that the hot air dosent go outside but comes back on the temperature control and shuts the heat off. Also if you put wet close it it the lint will be built up behind the fan. You have to lay the dryer down take the back off and fron the bottom on the left side is the vent foller the hoe to the left. there is four 5/16" screw hokling that tub on thake those screws out and raise that unit enough to get you hand to the fan blades and you will find two hands full of linte matted there.
clean that out dryer need good air flow be sure to pull youi vent out the top and clean before each dry.

Electrolux EWW1141AESA Washer-Dryer isn't drying

If it is new, contact the seller under warranty. This model is only available in Saudi Arabia, we are in North America. According to the specs, it is a condenser dryer with no vent to outside. These do take longer to dry, but they should dry eventually.

DRYER NOT DRYING CLOTHES ALL THE WAY FILTER IS CLEAN AND CLEANED OUT THE LINT TRAP AND COVER. NO CODE GIVEN. HAVE TO RUN TWO CYCLES.

Clean the exhaust duct. The ENTIRE duct, from where it attaches to the dryer to where it exits the house... Failure to dry clothing when you have heat is an air-flow issue

Why isn't My Kenmore Heavy Duty 70 Series Soft Heat Extra Capacity Electric Dryer drying clothes on any one cycle?

One possibility: Air flow! Make sure that the lint trap is cleaned before each cycle. You likely need to thoroughly clean out the vent piping out the back of the machine- a buildup of lint in here can also restrict airflow.
