Hi. I found a previous post and it sounded like my thermal fuse was bad, we tested it and it has continuity. What's my next step?

The display works, all the buttons work and looks normal, but nothing happens when I push start. It worked fine until one time i pushed start, heard a noise (kind of a crunch noise, only for a moment) and then nothing.

We've recently replaced the heating element, other than that we have had zero problems with this dryer, purchased in 2004.

Thanks!

Hi,

Sounds like a bad key panal...and you may want to invest in another dryer once you see the price of that part!

Third one ( I don't know what colour it is ) is NLA.

And if the board is also needed...

Thanks. That's the answer I wasn't hoping for.
Since my post my husband tore it down to the motor and ohm'ed it, finding no continuity. Could that possibly be the problem?

A bad motor will stop it from running....not as expensive but close....
