GE Dryer GTD65EBSJ3WS Power/Start Broken

Model Number

GTD65EBSJ3WS

Brand

GE

Age

1-5 years

At a loss for what else to check.

GE Dryer model GTD65EBSJ3WS Power and Start button don't seem to work. Can turn the program knob which turns on/lights up the panel and was able to press the Start button particularly hard and get it to start once without issue, now is entirely unresponsive.

Took apart panel to check for any irregularities or obstructions with the physical buttons making contact with the board, found none.

Thermal fuse tested fine. Any/all help is greatly appreciated. Just lapsed warranty period (3 years).

Thank you.

FIXED - GTD65EBSJ1WS GE Dryer - Console Lights Flashing, Won't Do Anything

I was given a relatively new GE dryer, model GTD65EBSJ1WS. The previous owners stated that all the lights on the console flash and dryer is non-responsive beyond that. They replaced the board only to have the same problem. Replaced the board a second time and still the same problem. That's the...
