Dryer shuts off and will not continue.

Dryer shuts off and will not continue drying. It can be shut off, reset and restarted, but will not continue drying. If you walk away and come back later the dryer is running and drying clothes.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

It possible either your vent pipe is stopped up not allowing the heat to escape the dryer or there are some heat safety switches in the dryer that could either be bad or weak. Both instances will cause the dryer to shut off until it cools and then turn back on with out anyone being around it.
