Kenmore Dryer 90 Series will start but suddenly stop...

Good Evening,
We were just given a Kenmore electric dryer 90 series - it will start but suddenly stop and we have to wait a minute before it will start again.
Help :-)

Thank you will_e_b. My husband rewired the cord and now it works like a dream. The previous owners damaged the cord and thought they replaced it correctly, luckily my husband figured it out.

Again, thank you for your help

What starts and stops? the entire dryer or maybe the drum? Do you do anything to make it restart other than pushing the start button? This initially sounds like a temperature switch is opening and resetting after it cools. If you can describe the problem a little more in detail it would help.
