Check the thermal fuse (#23 on the diagram) for continuity. Very likely the vent line and/or the air ducts inside the dryer are clogged up, causing the dryer to overheat.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL RED4100SQ0 | AppliancePartsPros.com

The complete model number of the dryer and more specific description on the problem might help others to help you.
