Dryer will not turn on. I took the switch apart and watch the contacts when I tried turning it on and they stuck together so that means it's a bad switch doesn't it or am I wrong?

Hi Angela, Thank you for your question. If your dryer is not tumbling, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the drive motor with pulley, the belt, the rollers, the rear drum felt seal, the seal and bearing and the two-piece split ring bearing. We hope this helps! Good luck with the repair!

Dryer motor runs, but no heat
To reach the heating element you only need to open the back cover of the dryer (about 8 nut-head screws). Remember to disconnect the power.

To remove the heating element there are two small nut-head screws. Remove the two electric wires. Then you can pull the heating element away.

You can check the heating element with an ohm-meter or visually inspect it to see if the heating element spiral wire is broken.

Don't hurry to dispose the old element. My model includes a small electric safety part. You'll need to transfer it to the new heating element (that comes without it)..

Good luck.

Dryer would run with no heat.
The repair was easy. the most time consuming part was vacuuming the dust from the back of the Dryer, The repair required removing screw from the back panel of the dryer. Then removing screws from the heating element and unplugging the wires. The only moderately diffculy part was swapping the sensor form the old element.
