Sounds like the capacitor has gone but if you smelled burning you might have cooked the motor as running the unit with the capacitor gone and the motor humming burns it out but you can test it easily by turning on the dryer so it should be running then with the door open spin the drum and close the door quickly and if the motor is ok it will normally work if not try this a few times as it is hard to get the door closed quick enough to catch the motor in action, the capacitor is the little silver battery type thing connected to the motor.
