We recently moved to a new house and when I went to use the dryer for the first time it would not start. The interior light comes on and I can hear the timer buzzing when the door is open (it stops buzzing when I close the door). The interior light seems dim to me but my girlfriend thinks its about the same as in the old house. I confirmed I am getting 220 coming from the plug in. I replaced the thermal fuse and nothing changed. Also, I don't think that it is the door switch because when I press it in the light on the dryer goes off (I could be wrong though).
So I am a bit stuck on what to try next. I am guessing it is ether the start switch or the timer? If so what is the best way of testing them without buying a bunch of new parts I don't need? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

It looks like it. This is the exact part I got and the site that I got it from. http://www.********************...mal-Fuse/33001762/516650Edit It does not look like I can post URL's here. The part number I got from the other website was 33001762 and the it was item 516650. The website was repair ************....as a side note I would not order from them again it took forever for the part to show up.

Check for loose or burnt connection were the power cord connects to the back of the dryer.

Everything looks new. I can see nothing that looks burnt and all the connects are tight. :(
