Dan for Model Number red4340sq1

Answer Dan, You have the correct part number 3406105 it has been "substituted" by the manufacturer as a cost savings effort. This door switch will work on dryers with or without a drum light. If you have a drum light your internal wire harness will have three wires, if theres no drum light, the harness will have two wires. but the wires will align properly and supply power to the proper circuit, regardless.

Answer Hello Mike. Check and see if the belt is broke or the motor is locked up and replace the part that is bad. The element should get hot unless the motor is running, unless it is shorted out or the belt is broke and the motor runs, but the drum does not turn.

Answer Hello Robert. It is best to test the door switch for continuity. When the switch is pressed in, like the door is closed, it should read closed for continuity. When open, it should read open. The light side of the switch will be the opposite. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html
