Maytag electric dryer PYE2300AYW

Dryer is taking long time to dry clothes. Sometimes needs two cycles. Gets hot. Runs on all cycles. Just take forever to dry. Like it’s not getting warm enough. I replaced the heating element last month. When it completely failed to get hot. Seems to work. Fine except for long dry cycles Any suggestions. I also the thermostat when I replaced Heating element that had broke wires

That indicates a vent restriction, go outside and see if your exhaust duct is clogged up with lint, also pull the dryer out from the wall and remove the exhaust vent hose and dry a load with the exhaust hose OFF, then you will know for sure its a vent restriction to the outside of your house.
