dryer struggles to start when button is pushed
Model Number: 110.70912990 Brand: Kenmore Age: 5 - 10 years
The dryer will run at first with no problems, then, after a few minutes it shuts off. Then when I try to start it again, it will stuggle to begin turning then shut down. Sometimes if I turn the barrell by hand, it will slowly start and kick on.

I am sorry to say this, but you have a bad motor.
The bearings are overheating and seizing and/or the start winding is bad. The motor is not too terribly difficult to replace. But, it will take some time. Matt
