My dryer keeps shutting off. If I use it on "air fluff" without heat, it runs well. All vents are clear and it is lint free. Is this a thermostat problem?

Does it trip a breaker when it shuts off?

If you mean on the fuse box, no. I wait about 3 or 4 minutes and then push the button and it starts again.

Sounds like the motor is overheating.

No. But a new motor is in order.
