The dryer has worked just fine up until this point. I had been using it and opened the door to check dryness of clothes. Closed the door again to restart and it would not restart. Opened the door again and found that a metal collar stay was in the door groove (just lying there). Took it out, but dryer refuses to start again. Thought perhaps there is a fuse or door switch that I could check. Checked all circuit breakers and/or fuses in house already. All are intact. Any help you could give me would be very appreciated. Thank you.

Looks like the problem is a broken door switch or its lever.

- The part number for the door switch kit is AP3094142
