Hi Christen
Sounds like restricted air flow is allowing heat to build up in your machine. You need to fix this ASAP.
You need to take the blower cover off and check the blower to see if it is turning correctly. If so, thorough clean out the blower and the entire vent area inside of the machine. You should get a good, strong air flow.
Good luck, let us know if you need more help.
