...............................past month and a half
or so it takes a really long time to dry the clothes. On average 1 1/2
hours - 2 hours for one load, and sometimes they are still damp after
that. I disconnected the power and took a look at the heating element and
there is no visible signs of it being burnt up or damaged. I also checked
for lint blockage and there is none. My question being, does this sound
like a thermostat problem?

We had this problem awhile back, and cleaning out the vent helped, but
ultimately the problem was that the vent/lint handling system inside the
dryer was so packed with lint that the air flow was impeded. So, I had to
tear it apart and clean it thoroughly. That solved the problem
