Well my problem is when i went to start my gas dryer it made the sound (as long as i pressed the button done) but it would not start. I have checked and made sure the door was closed and it is getting power all assume since the light still comes on when i open the door. I called maytag and got nowhere. I hear that it could be a belt or even a thermal fuse blown but how do i know which it is so i can fix it? Also, how do i get to the thermal fuse and belts to troubleshoot. Please help...
