It was told to me that there was something that smelled hot. The dryer had shut off before they got to it and was extremely hot to the touch. The dryer would not restart. Now after it has been shut down and cooled off it still won't start. I think the timer went out but I need a second opinion.

Parts for Maytag LDE5004ACW Dryer - AppliancePartsPros.com

The wiring diagram for your unit is on Page 5-3.

Could be that the thermal fuse on the blower assembly has blown.
Check it with a meter.
If it is blown check/clean your vent system as this is the most common cause of it blowing.

Could also be the thermal cutoff on the heater.
If this is blown there are other parts that should be checked before replacing it.
