Answer

Hello Ronald, thank you for contacting APP, The unit not starting may be one of a few different things on this unit. The Timer WE4M533 may have failed and no longer be creating a circuit, also the Push-to-Start Switch WE4M416 may be bad and no longer making contact to allow the unit to start. Additionally the Hi-Limit Thermostat WE4M137, Door Switch WE4M415, or Drive Motor WE17X22217 may have failed. If it seems like the motor is buzzing, humming, or vibrating when the Push-to-Start is pressed and held we would suspect that the motor is bad, otherwise we would need to perform voltage and/or continuity/resistance tests to narrow down the issue further.
