I would check the housing where the blower assembly fits onto the machine. Sometimes this housing gets so full of lint that it only has a small space for air to exhaust.
The issue of it being too hot is most likely what caused the failure to begin with. There should also be a high limit cut off, depending on the model number.

Did you clean/check your vent system?

This should not cause a heat build up here but it definitely will not help things either.
