When I press the push to start button it starts up but as soon as I let go it stops? do you think it might be the fuse or a relay?

[I]t will most likely be either the power board. Part # W10116564. Or it will be the Power Relay. I see the power relay being more the problem, then anything else. This is not easy to diagnose. That is why I keep both of them on the truck. It could also be the motor switch on Motor. But not usually. It could also be the the push to start switch, but not likely.

is the power board the same as the even heat control assembly? if so the part number is #W10116564 correct ? if not what is the part number we cant find it. also here is what i have done - power to PTS is one side and one side of motor relay. power through button both sides and let go it drops off. the book that came with it says the part is called EVEN HEAT CONTROL ASSEMBLY what do you think?

That W10116564 Is the board I am talking about. It is usually one or the other. Tom Appliance Educator, Appliance Parts, Washer and Dryer Parts, Refridgerator and Freezer Parts, Stove and Oven Parts
