Whirlpool Tumble Dryer 3RLER5437KQ3 cuting out

[Bernie]

Have got a Whirlpool Tumble Dryer 3RLER5437KQ3
Customer complaint is that it will work ok for a couple of days then it will cut out and have to leave it for about an hour before it can be restarted.
My only guess is having looked at the wiring diagram that it might be the motor getting hot and the thermal cut-out working.
Does anyone know if this is integral with the motor or a separate part. Or does anybody have any other suggestions?
Many Thanks
Bernie

i think there is a overheat stat on the exhaust chamber (behind plinth at bottom of machine) that can also kill the power ❗
