Kenmore dryer - put in new thermostat, had to jump

Kenmore dryer - put in new thermostat, had to jump fuse because couldn't get one today. Put a few clothes in dryer & it ran fine.After about 10 minutes I noticed dryer was shut off. Checked clothes & they were "VERY" hot. I could hardly get them out of the dryer. It would not turn back on. The light is on in dryer. It is not the breaker or recepticl. If you would please offer suggestions to get it started. Thank you!

why didn't you just wait till you got the fuse?you blew the first fuse because something is wrong and overheating it,you might have just needed to clean out the dryer because that's usually the cause of poping them now you might have cooked wires or anything else,not smart,what fuse did you jump out and send complete model number

- change out the fuse that popped and check the high limit thermostat located on the heater box

- need the full model number,don't know if you have an even heat board,there are also a motor relay and a heat relay in some dryers
