Suzanne for Model Number 417 84042500 I have a 5-6 year old Kenmore electric dryer. Has been working fine until recently. I noticed that I would turn it on, and it would run for perhaps 5 minutes with wet items in it, and then quit running. It would turn on again, but again quit after a few minutes. It does heat up with no problem. I tested running it with nothing in it, and it works properly. Does not quit running in that situation.
