Dryer Simply Won't Start. The Timer Appears To Be Working Normally, But The Start Button Doesn't Seem To Engage Anything. Could It Be The Start Button Or A Resistor Gone Bad?

The first thing I would do is check the thermal fuse (#23 on the bulkhead parts break down diagram) for continuity.

The following article on our forum will explain in detail how to run a continuity test using either an analog meter or a digital meter – How to check continuity with Ohmmeter.


- The part number for the thermal fuse is AP3132867

Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool dryer Model LER4634EQ2
