Replace the high limit thermostat.The high limit safety thermostat is a back-up thermostat that will shut off the heating element if it detects a temperature above 200 degrees. The thermistor (temperature sensor) that is on the blower housing detects the temperature in the dryer. It is the component that helps the control regulate the operating temperature at around 150 degrees.

Here is a video to show you how to replace the thermostat.

You could have a build up of lent inside the dryer which might have ignited. Dryer should be dissasembled and cleaned.
Could be that your motor is over heating.
Depends on what type of smell your smelling;.If its the motor over heating, motor would have to be replaced.

HI it could need a service after 3 years

U must rmove the whole front of the dryer to get to the pilot. Good luck.
