A worn belt or something else?

Two weeks ago today, I was starting the Frigidaire Crown Series Heavy Duty Dryer, 131836400 N FDE/G23RG, when, all of a sudden, it began to smell of hot smoke. I turned it off and checked to see if the wiring was OK. Having checked it, I tried it again. This time the drum didn't turn at all. What would cause it, and should I buy a belt for it.
