None of the buttons respond when you press them?

If that's the case then your control panel has gone out. Unfortunately, it's no longer available.

Here's the control panel for your model if your serial# starts with 69 or higher:

Correct. The lights are up on each button and display shows 60 but none of them respond. I can enter diagnostic mode but just see ‘d’ displayed. Should i try changing door switch.

 

[Jake]

No, because even with a bad door switch the buttons should still respond.

Yes, time to go dryer shopping.

We recommend Maytag, Whirlpool, Amana, Roper.
