GE dryer turns on but doesn't stay on

[robhoak]

Hello All!!!

I have a GE Dryer that will turn on but doesn't stay on. Model# GTDP200EF3WS. I've already replaced the push to start switch but it still does the same thing....any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!!!!

Is the drum actually turning when you are holding the start button in ?

 

If not you probably have a broken belt, there is a switch on the belt tension pulley bracket that will keep the dryer from continuing to run if the belt is broken.

did you also check if the termal fuse inside the dryer is not burn you might have to replace the termal fuse inside the dryer?
