Henry C Auburn , AL September 27, 2022 Dryer would not start. The belt tension interlock switch had failed.

While I had the machine down that far, I also replaced the front and rear drum bearings. Read More...

Don A Huachuca City , AZ September 25, 2022 Appliance: General Electric Electric Dryer DVLR223EG0WW The dryer would only run if you held the start button. I determined that everything worked fine, AS LONG AS I held the START button down, so it had to be a safety switch somewhere that caused the problem. I removed the lid and front, then began to test each safety switch that I could find. After determining that none of the visible switches were bad, I had to remove the drum and found a few more switches down around the motor. After checking them, I was able to determine that the switch at the idler pulley, the pulley that keeps the belt taught, was bad. I did a temp jumper, effectively bypassing the switch, and used the dryer until the new switch arrived. Read More...
