You replaced the belt switch? This part?

Did your old switch have just two terminals on it and the new one had three?

Watch this video. Especially after 4:42 up to 5:50.

The wires should be on the common and normally closed terminals.

Just replaced the motor in above dryer... Original start winding open.
When powered up controller reads ok. When selecting dry, I hear a click (relay on control board) but nothing happens... No motor hum... nothing...
The included install sheet was barely readable but old and new motors appears to be the same... so wired the belt sensor switch the same way as original...
Any Ideas?
Is there a PDF of the tech sheet?
