There may be one or more things wrong with your dryer. Usually the most common problem will that the thermal fuse has been blown. These can fail due to clogged venting going outside, as well they can go over time. If this thermal cut-off fuse goes, your dryer will not run.Part number for the thermal cut-off is 3392519. If you find you dryer is working and then not working intermittently, this could also indicate a bad door switch, and the dryer won't operate. part number for the door switch is 3406107. The next possible cause of your not starting problem could be that your push to start switch is gone and now isn't allowing any amperage to the motor telling it to start. Part number for the start switch is 3404233. If however you hear any low grumble sounds coming from the dryer when you press the start switch, this could indicate a bad motor, and would have to be further diagnosed by a technician. Hope this helps.

Thanks
