TThe door strike for your dryer is mounted on the dryer frame that the door shuts onto. It fits into the door catch on the door and keeps the door closed. If the door strike is damaged or missing, the door will not lock properly and not only will this cause the door to swing open, but it won’t allow the dryer to start properly. It is a small piece of metal, about 1 inch in length and is sold individually.

Start just humms. How do i take the top off?
Hi Linda,
Thank you for your question. If you start the dryer and it just hums, open the dryer door and reach in and turn the dryer drum counter-clockwise a couple of times. Once you have done this, shut the door and see if the dryer starts, if it does not start, then there is an issue with the motor and it will need to be replaced. Here is a link to one of our YouTube videos that you may reference on how to disassemble a GE dryer, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qW8cfuUTWqk. The dryer in the video may be different from yours, but it will give you a general idea on how to remove the part. We hope this helps! Good luck with the repair!

The dryer does not heat. Could this be the healing element needs replacing?
Hello Elizabeth, thank you for contacting us. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend checking the thermal fuse, part number PS268245, to solve the problem. It shuts off the heating element when the dryer overheats. Glad to be of assistance!
