Hikmet January 25, 2020 for Model Number GTDP180GD0WW Suddenly My GE gas dryer doesn't start. I press the start and nothing happen with no sound at all. I checked the electricity 120 VAC and it is OK. I checked the door switch found it OK. I checked the belt spring tension switch and it is OK. I checked the start switch and it is OK. I found all the wiring in tact and in good condition with no sine of damage or burnt on all the components of the dryer. I have the feeling the problem in the rotary switch in the motor. Please I need your wisdom and help. Thank you.
1 Answer Hikmet,Check your timer contacts B to C and make sure there is continuity when a cycle is set. Make sure when you depress the start switch there is continuity between the two terminals on the back of the switch. Other than that since you have tested the other possibilities you would probably need to replace the motor. Read More...
Nancy October 19, 2019 for Model Number GLDP280ED0WS Used my dryer this morning. Went to use it a second time and the selector switch went completely around without clicking on any setting. Of course when I pushed the start button. What do I need to replace
1 Answer Nancy, make sure the knob is not broken, put another knob on it and see if it makes any difference, other than the knob, you would need to replace the rotary switch that is broken. Read More...
Raymond September 18, 2018 Have a GE gas dryer. DWSR463GG5WW. Sometimes heat sometimes no heat last couple months. Checked vent. Changed coils while back. Appeared to work for a while. Just changed the igniter and limit thermostat. Heats but very low heat. Could it be 4 heat setting knob or maybe cycling thermostat? HELP
1 Answer Raymond,It could very well be the cycling thermostat Also check your exhaust from the dryer to outside. Just a small restriction can cause the dryer to short cycle and not heat properly. Read More...
