I have a Kenmore HE2T dryer that I am having a problem with...the timer sometimes won't shut off. Let me explain a little.

I take the clothes out of the washer and put them into the dryer. Clean the lint screen (always). I set the dryer to the Auto cycle in "normal" and 48 minutes comes up on the timer. 48 minutes later I will go the the dryer and it will say something like "35". I open the door and check the clothes. They seem very warm and in most cases dry.

I am out of warranty and don't have the money to pay a technician to come out to fix it. I am decently handy and think that if someone could help me here with a fix that I could do it myself.

Note: I live in a townhouse and the dryer and washer is on the 2nd floor. The dryer vent it on the wall near the floor behind the dryer. I vent goes up through the roof.

Just so you know, this are some steps I have taken:

1. thoroughly wiped off the 2 sensor bars inside the dryer

2. removed the lint filter mechanism inside the dryer and completely cleaned all lint. Its very clean.

3. Disconnected dryer vent from wall and cleaned all lint. I even used my Milwaukee tool with a "snake camera" to see if anything might be blocked. Everything seems ok.

4. Reconnected and Checked all dryer vent connections. Everything is great.

I would appreciate any help

Thank you
