Correct...when I plugged it in at the Sears website,it added the '110' digits. So it would be 110-77490400. Below is a look-alike. I will see if I can post a pic of the actual dryer.

I'll be calling a couple of repair places today to see if I can get them over there for a 2nd opinion. Some parts are still available, but pricy and scarce. | ||

Sears just confirmed it is a 1987 model, but the only thing they can offer is a $107 motor. I have another company going to check it out Monday. I have a feeling I'm looking at a large paper-weight. I appreciate the feedback. | ||

 Appnut is right, of course. No way that's a 1987 model. These are someone else's pics of an avocado matching washer and a pair in white. 1974 was the last version of the pushbutton/keyboard belt-drive Lady Kenmore washer. | ||

No timer on this dryer. All electronic control. Could be a loose solder connection on the board. Fixed many like this through the years. | ||

What if?
The one little thing that could cause this glitch is the door switch, it's a shot in the dark but your's may be worn out!

1974 LKM Dryer It is likley an electronic control problem, Edward had it right in post # 11 & 12.
I have had the same dryer for over 25 years as my main dryer and the Electronic control has acted up once and I replaced it, it is now NLA but it is easy to remove and you may be able to send it out for rebuilding.
Cleaning the vent etc is always a good thing to do but it did not have anything to do with the dryer not starting properly, keep your fingers crossed, you have at least a 50/50 chance it will act up again soon.
