Check your door switch as well, but you may want to start by replaceing the start button. You should hear a small click when the button is pushed down.

What could be the cause for a F 28 error code ? Kenmore model #110.47512601

It may be caused by a power issue. Make sure that the washer is plugged into a grounded plug.

Push the start button but will not stay running

Sounds like you have bad run windings on your motor. Holding the start button continues to send power to the start windings. When you release it the power should kick over to the run windings. You will need a new motor. _MJ_

Runs when PTS held but shuts off when released/no heat

No problem at all.The motor has a start and run winding.Your run winding is bad.The reason you have no heat is the run winding has to run to close the contacts on the motor switch.Replace the motor ,both problems solved. Hope this helps Please rate my response :)

Bad start button, most likely. Go to my site and enter this part number, also look inside door for complete model number and you possibly will need to call their toll free number. Kenmore numbers look like this 584.895674 Try part number on the search feature and call. We offer free help. Switch - Push to start number 3395382 my site click on below, Thanks, Sea Breeze

Dryer shuts off after releasing "push to start"

this problem sounds like it can only be 1 of 2 problems. the start button or the motor is not going into run winding. i found over the years that the blue wire i believe is burnt at the motor. this can be repaired quite easily .cut the wire and strip it putting a new connector on. if you need to you can buy an assortment at a hardware store. if every thing is good check the start button for burnt wire if ok then you most likely have a bad motor. i'm pretty sure though that a wire is burnt off at the motor
