Kenmore Dryer Light/Door Issue

Dryer Repair

I have a Kenmore Dryer Model 110.63032101.

Recently, when I open the door while the dryer is running, the dryer doesn’t stop spinning and the inside light doesn’t come on.

Seems to me, that since I’m having those problems together, it’s most likely that the dryer isn’t sensing that the door is open.

Is this something I can easily fix on my own?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi.

Most likely there is a bad door switch AP6008561

Thank you.

It was indeed the door switch. There’s a Sears parts store nearby, so I picked up the part and replaced it using the video I found on ************************.com. I knew it was the problem when I got the new part and saw how it clicked and how the broken one in the machine didn’t. Pretty simple repair.
