Sounds like the vent to the outside is clogged. Try unhooking the vent hose from the back of the dryer, and pull the dryer away from the wall about 2 feet, and run a cycle and see what it does. Tom ApplianceEducator.com

Hello. Your are right - not much left to replace... If you fill comfortable with running life test, bypass cycling thermostat and see if it makes any difference. If not - bypass the high limit. Best if you can put a thermometer right at the end of dryer's vent. Should be looking for 145-155 deg.F. Important - don't run the dryer without wet laundry inside. Do not attempt to leave "jumpers" on any of the thermostats, replace bad parts. Please check one more time the air duct attached to the front panel for clogges. On the attached breakdown diagram #4 position #6. The safety thermostat Part number: AP2152884
