My samsung dryer DV350AEP shuts off after a few minutes of drying.
When I first start it, it will run for maybe 3 to 5 minutes and then go to 1 minute and shut off.
It does start right back up.
The second time I start it, it will run for maybe a minute or two and then the led lights may slightly flicker and it will just shut off. No 1 minute or music playing.
It will still start right back up.
If I do this 3 or 4 more times, the led lights will start flickering/fading from dim to bright more and more.
Finally it will get to where as soon as I push start, it will just fade and shut right back off.
So far I have replaced,
Assembly bracket thermostat
Dryer thermal fuse
dryer thermostat
thermistor
However, it still does the same thing.
I have also cleaned all lent out from the dryer and the hose.
I also disconnected the dryer flex house to just let it run in the house.
I have not noticed any weird noise or grinding coming from the motor.

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

How old is it?
Do you have a factory warranty? store extended warranty? home warranty?
Without knowing this appliance, I bet the malfunction is electronic.
Attractive appliances, bad electronics and plastic parts.

It's probably around 6 to 7 years old. We had a 5 year warranty on it when we bought it. I have found that the control board is discontinued. We have had problems with our samsung stove/oven and samsung fridge. My wife has had it with samsung. i'm thinking just these newer appliances nowadays don't last near as long as they used to.

My opinion is it’s the main pcb. Probably better off replacing the dryer. Manufacturers are required to produce parts for seven years. If your dryer is seven years old and all the main boards are not available, that kind of tells you something.
