Your issue is most likely a clogged or restricted exhaust vent system, possibly a "weak" high limit thermostat, or an air leak at the drum or blower seal.

Good Luck,
:) :) :)

Thanks. Is there anyway to check the thermostat to see if it is "weak"?

Nando,

No, not really, if it's working, it may be opening the circuit too early.
The hi limit thermostat is designed and operates as a safety device, it's not designed to operate on a continuous basis, ( ideally, it should never operate).
It's just a process of elimination, or educated guess.

:) :) :)
