Earlier today, my dryer just stopped working after changing loads. I checked all the power going to the dryer itself, and it is all fine. I also checked the thermal fuse, but the dryer still wouldn't power on at all. Even the control panel doesn't seem to be recieving any power. Anything else that you guys might suggest troubleshooting before I spend way to much to get a repair man out here? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Open the unit and check for a broken wire.

When I speak of the thermal fuse, I mean the one inside the unit itself. As for the wires, they all appear to be intact.

Thanks: 1 times

Could not find a wiring diagram for this unit so take the below as guesses

Looks like the machine has a belt break switch, you may have a broken belt.
Check the door switch

We had one resently that was doing the same thing and traced it down to a loose wire in the wire harness at the motor plug.
