Why is my Kenmore Electric dryer shutting off before the cycle is complete?

[also answering 1st tier redirect of: "Kenmore electric dryer model 67732794 shutting off before cycle over?"]
Two potential causes come to mind (both equally likely, on an older machine):
1) There is a "bad spot" (poor electrical contact) on the rotary timer/cycle-select switch. (The wiper arm moves across each "click-stop" and comes to a bad/corroded section, and stops -- acting as if the cycle is over.)
2) The lint trap or exhaust outlet is clogged, causing an over-temperature situation, triggering a temp sensor, thus stopping the cycle.
If I find the Model 67732794 manual on the Sears website (feel free to look yourself!), I'll see what type of over-temp safeties are in place.
Quick fixes are: FIRST, clean the lint trap filter (surprised how many folks don't), and then try a DIFFERENT cycle on the rotary knob selector, and see if the cycle completes.
If your selector knob has a "bad spot", it won't be on a different cycle.
