Might have overheated due to blocked venting or lint buildup. Your best bet is to take it apart and check it. It aint no different than a whirlpool with filter in the top. This video I made shows what to check:

Hello there and welcome to fixya This is a fairly common problem with these dryers and can be a rather simple fix I need to know a few things first ok? Just post the answers back to me so i can give you the proper information 1. what is the model number of the unit 2. can you turn the drum by hand if so great 3. Is there any click sound when you turn it onMost of the time it turns out to be a bad belt or drive unit However things can get into the motor unit like lint that can destroy a motor over a short period of time which i hope is not the case here ok? Any way please post me a comment back so I can continue to help you ok Best regards Michael
Hard way. You will need to take the whole machine apart and take the blower out to clean it. As you progress, you will see what tools and steps you will be needing. About an all day job.Easy way.Unhook the dryer air hose and electric cord.Move the dryer to a place that wil allow you to wash it out with a garden hose.Tip the dryer forward onto it's face and from underneath, wash the blower out with a garden hose. Please don't use a whole lot of pressure. Should dry in a few hours.Keep the water out of the rear where the heating element is.About a 1 hour job, with out drying time.Be blessed
