Maytag Ensignia Dryer will not start.?

Question

5 yrs old, stopped mid cycle. I've replaced the thermal switch and over temp switch but it still will not run when I pull out the k**b. Light comes on when I open the door.

Answer 1

Art: Open dryer door and turn dryer tub by hand, if it rotates freely,  the belt is broken.  You should hear click when you open dryer door from door switch.

Good Luck

Answer 2

So the light comes on, means the ckt breaker is ok, could be the timer switch did not move forward to the next operation. Turn the k**b clockwise to start just like you began the first time. Other than that there is a starting capacitor that helps the tub/drum rotate. If it failed you need to call a serviceman/lady. Not something to tackle if you are not savvy to electric.. Safety First please!
