My dryer will not turn on. It did not make any sounds or smell on the last load. Could this be a starter switch issue?
For model number Nef4655ew0
Hi Angela, Thank you for the question. I suggest replacing or testing with a multi-meter, the Push To Start switch.If there is no Continuity on the switch it will need to be replaced.Hope this helps!

Dryer will only work if you hold in the start button. Is the switch bad.
For model number NED4600YQ1
Hello Debi, Thank you for your inquiry. To determine if the start switch is defective, attempt to start the dryer. If the dryer hums but does not start, the start switch is not at fault. You can check the switch with a multimeter to see if it is working. We would recommend you check the following parts as well, the door switch, both the internal bias and hi-limit thermostat, the thermal cut off kit, the thermal fuse and the main control board. If you are unfamiliar with how a multimeter functions, there are YouTube videos available to assist you. Hope this helps!

Hello Debi, Thank you for your inquiry. To determine if the start switch is defective, attempt to start the dryer. If the dryer hums but does not start, the start switch is not at fault. Use a multimeter to test the start switch for continuity. If the switch does not have continuity, replace it. I would also check the thermal fuse, the thermostats, the thermal cut off kit, the door switch, the control panel and the main control board. Good luck with your repair!
