Maytag Dryer - When pushing the button, it wants to turn on but wont. While my finger is on the 'On' button, the dryer will try to turn on but when I remove my finger, it gives up. The drum won't spin. Have had it for about 6 months.

try holding the door switch with your finger and turning the drum with your hand after you push the start button , if this does not start it then you will have to replace the motor

could be that the belt is cut off , of the the puleys are jam .. does it make a big noise ( squeeky noise

Could be a faulty door switch, or a fuse in the machine.

I had the same problem. Here's a quick test you need to do. It will take two individuals (unless you're extremely talented) Open the dryer door and push in the door switch... and hold it in. Have the other person push on (and hold) the start button on the console. At that same time everyone is pushing the switches take a free hand and reach into the dryer and try to spin it. Sometimes just a little push (assistance) is all it takes and..... bingo the dryer starts up! If that's the case... your motor is on its way out or it's gone. Usually due to the bearings on the motor being badly worn.
