Do some regular maintenance

It's normal in mixed loads for some items to still be damp after a cycle, but if the whole load is still wet, perform this regular maintenance task before checking for faulty parts in the dryer. Remove accumulated lint from the vent tube that runs from the dryer to the outside. Trapped lint increases drying times and can become a fire hazard.

Make sure the dryer timer is working

The timer on the control panel allows the setting of spin time. The timer's internal mechanisms open and close circuits that control various functions in the dryer's motor and the heating element. If the dryer doesn't start or heat properly or if the timer doesn't keep the spin time properly, you may need to replace the timer.

Check the operating thermostat

A second dryer troubleshooting option is to inspect the operating thermostat that keeps a continuous measure of the temperature inside the dryer drum. It regulates the heating source to keep temperature at the level the spinning cycle is set for. If the thermostat isn't working properly, it can't control the heat source, leading to inconsistent heating.
