When I put clothes in the dryer and hit the normal start all that happens is the panel shows sensing, but it doesn't start. Worked fine earlier in the day. Have reset the breaker, but still no progress. I saw where someone recommeded I get the Tech Sheet and run diagnostics, but that "servicematters" website is availble only to paid subscribers and it is quite expensive to join. I have a service contract with Sears, but it will be next Monday before they can get here. I would like to insure that they bring the proper part with them when they come.

Well, as I was getting ready, I decided to turn the breaker off again, and let it sit. I started with the diagnostics and everything passed, so I moved to the Motor Test, and lo and behold it ran. I didn't run the rest of the test, but instead decided to just improve my ventilation plan with dryer periscope, and clean up all the lint. I still have the scheduled maintenience guy coming out Monday anyway, so I'll let him check it out.
