Thanks for the reply, but the door switch is ok. open the door and nothing happens (no clicking) solenoid works when you close the door and advance timer to a time setting. Press the start button and you will hear itclick as if it will come on motor doesn't start. It's late here so tomorrow the tub comes out and I check the power to the motor.

The fuse mounts on the blower housing to the left of the machine. It looks like this:fuse 2.jpgJust replacing it will make it run again but failure to remove lint from dryer will result in fuse blowing again and again. This includes the filter housing. Sometimes the filter housing itself can be so clogged it has to be removed and washed out.

After I took the front off and the tub out, I saw that it needed a good vaccuum so I cleaned it well of dust and lint that had made it's way to the motor. I made a jumper wire for the door switch and tried the start button with no progress. I took a can of electric motor cleaner and sprayed the armature and bearing area's and now it works like a charm. Final test will be the load of towels my daughter left us to do!Thanks Folks. It's nice to go on line to save a few tight $$$ right... Honeydothis~~~now |

UTT-OH in the dog house again!!! The dryer ran two loads and didn't completely dry 2nd load (But it was a heavy wet load of towells). Any way I took the front off this time and bypass the door switch with a jumper, set time for 45" adn hit the start button,,,only a click again. It's calling for the motor to run but motor isn't. I tapped on the black box on the front of the motor and heard a light click like a reset going off. Well the dryer is a drying with my work clothes. Is it that black box and is it available.Honey do this ~~~~over |

How much time to change out the motor? I can fix almost anything as I install complete water systems. sure this is different but with steel knee's It's hard to get down. It still worked after a time out of 6 hours to finish drying work cloths. Another thumbs up for now!
