It is likely to ne a faulty thermal cut off switch that is causing your issue. Its effectively like a trip switch.

Thankyou for your enquiry.

This sounds like the dryer is switching of due to the operation of the thermal cut out.
There could be a jammed object between the drum and case. The motor could be overheating.
A visualc check and some electrical testing would confirm this and suggest a repair.

Hope this helps
Regards

Sounds like a possible pcb issue but I would look at the thermal cut out component first.
