You may encounter an overheating situation . One thing that may cause the problem...LINT... your wire mesh air filter you should be cleaned frequently. First remove your filter and clean it with dishwasher soap and hot water...this will remove the invisible film deposit by the Fabric Softener Sheet also called Feecy sheet and this will allow air to freely escape thru the filter . Make sure your exhaus hose is free from lint and also the escape channel scoop where your air filter is located. Now we have cleared one situation. The overheating is protection is controlled by a thermal switch located on the top of the door, you may gain access to it by removing the top panel with a kitchen knife depressing the panel holding clips.
Hope this was helpful.

Have you checked your outside vent while it was running to see if the dryer was venting 100%. If your clothes are hot and humid I would say clean your vent pipe has a blockage and needs to be cleaned out. Also as far as the burning smell you could take the front off (unplug first) the dryer of by removing 4 screws one above and one below the latch and two at the bottom and there are two clips one at the top left and right push in with a puddy knife and lift the top up a couple inches and lift the front up off the bottom holders. Then you will have access to vacuuming the lint that is floating around the burner.

okay I took the back panel off the dryer where the wires are... that's where the burnt smell is coming from... I discovered there is so much condensation there... I did notice the last time the dryer ran well, a lot of condensation in the inside of the door... my thinking is maybe the water has burned out the wires I let everything dry for a few days and also made certain my outside vents everything were attached and secure I did need to take care of that. But I think now the damage is to the wiring. So what do I do to repair this and what parts do I need to order. Thank you so much for helping me oh by the way I also vacuumed out the inside of the dryer vent everything and my dryer vent hoses they're all brand new. So now I believe it is just that wiring that's behind the square metal plate. Thank you in advance
First clean you wire mesh lint filter with dishwasher soap and hot water. This will remove the invisible film deposited by your Fabric Shoftener Sheets This will allow air to escape your dryer and prevent moisture build up in your dryer. Frequently do this cleaning methode every time you check your lint filter. As far as the wiring is another thing the lint build up and moisture may have caused a short circuit.UNPLUG dryer Remove the lint around the wiring and get back to me
