*edited to add-problem solved*
One of the wires by the elements was partially melted, so I fixed that. Soaked and scrubbed the lint tray and then let it soak in hot water and detergent for the rest of the day. It was 100% the dryer sheet residue blocking the air through the lint tray. Works like new 😊


Hello, y’all have been a tremendous help to me before and I’m really hoping you can help now. I have a Speed Queen dryer, model ADELRGS171TW01, purchased in 2015. The only thing I’ve had to do is replace the felt seal a couple of years ago. The problem I’m having is it has to run at least twice to dry the clothes. We had a repair guy come and test the element, which he said was fine. He said it was a venting issue, so I replaced the entire vent ducts under the house and relocated the dryer so the inside ductwork would be a straight shot with very slight improvement. We’ve vacuumed the lint from inside, too. If it’s not the venting, what else could it be?
