You tested the bulb? You tried another bulb?

The dryer (and the door switch) work fine

How did you check the door switch? Was the wiring also checked? Was the light socket checked?

Is there another switch for the light?

Normally no, but we may learn more once we see what model#/style yours is.

The door switch on most front load dryers are made with a common , Normally closed , and a normally open terminal. You should check the switch and the wiring connections leading to it. The connection tab inside the light assembly would also be suspect.
