SOURCE: dryer won't start
If you are getting s slight HUM when you press the start button,your motor is experiencing some problems. If you do not hear a hum, and after letting the dryer cool down for several hours, it suddenly works again, your motor has an internal short and is shutting itself down via the internal overload. If there is no hum of any kind, even after letting it cool off for a long time, then either there has been a failure of a part in the line such as the door interlock switch, the timer contact or there is a thermal overload in the back of the dryer, down by the blower, it is white in color and it has probably opened up.

What I would do is pull the dryer out and unplug the power cord. I would remove the rear cover and check the components back there for continuity.If all of that is good then the timer or breaker might be bad. Why? The timer calls for heat through the RH leg. The amp draw from the heating element arcs up the contact point inside the timer. The motor runs on 120 volts the heater runs on 240 volts. So the breaker will take a beating on the heater side of it. The dryer will hower still run. To recap It could be the heater the limits the time or an electrical problem.

Maybe you door switch has broken?
The little tab should click.
Another possibility is dryer overheat due to lint buildup
See that white skinny thing mounted next to the air temp control thermostat? That thing will melt if too much junk gets into the lint filter or vent pipe. If it does it kills the door circuit and the dryer is dead in the water. More here
