Michael S Carlsbad , CA February 26, 2017 Push start switch on ge dryer I was trying to troubleshot a problem I had with my GE dryer not starting. I went to AppliancePartsPros.com because they have excellent DYI videos on how to make repairs. I determined that the problem was in the push start switch. I ordered the switch online and it took 3 days to arrive. It took 5 minutes to replace the switch and the dryer works perfectly.

Gordon P Wading River , NY October 10, 2014 Appliance: General Electric Electric Dryer DRSR483EG7WW Whirlpool dryer door switch bad I had a humming sound when I pressed the start button on my whirlpool dryer. Went on line and determined that it could be due to a bad door switch . I called appliance parts pro on a Sunday expecting to get a recording ,instead a helpful rep took the order and remarkably got the door switch on Tuesday . Under the part on their website was a fantastic video taking you step by step to remove door top of dryer and switch. In all it took me less than 15 minutes. On a scale of 1-10 I would put it at 1 for extremely easy. The best part is I saved at least $150 dollars for house call and part. Thank you appliance part pros … a returning thankful customer ....

Jeremy G Malden , MA January 02, 2021 Dryer powered up but wouldn't start. I ordered the dryer drum drive belt, interlock switch, and door switch. Upon disassembling the dryer, it was clearly a snapped drum drive belt (the factory belt is thinner and probably less durable than the replacement belt). I replaced the belt and the switches to boot in under an hour. Parts and next day shipping under $100, which is what I would have paid for the factory service guy to come out in two weeks, before parts and labor to actually fix anything. The instruction videos didn't mention it, but there are some square drive screws in my particular GE dryer. I had an appropriate driver on hand, but it would have been annoying to need to find one at a hardware store on a holiday.
