Hi,

Dryer starts, heats runs 5-10min then stops.

And then?...starts up on it's own, you can start it back up again, right away?...after a while?
Makes any noises when starting up?

Hi Jeff. I can restart it immediately and same thing happens. No unusual noises.
 
Starts right back up again....not over heating on the motor safety then....I'd be checking the power/power wires to the dryer for possibly one being loose or burnt.

Hi Jeff, checked cable and looked good. You got me thinking and... Turned out to be a bad circuit breaker. Thanks so much for your help!
 
Good catch on the breaker, thankx for the update.
