The situation is it doesn’t run. No hum, no nuttin’. Previous owner trying to track down the problem replaced the timer and start switch then gave up. I was told it “is only a couple of years old”. I checked the door switch for “click” and continuity, and also the thermistor on the fan assembly. Both were fine. Drum turing well, belt fine, etc. What next, start button relay? If so, is that in the control panel? |

The door switch could also be at fault. If you push it in and it does not click, it should be tested. |

Thx for help. I just sent it down the road for $30. I spent over an hour cleaning it up thoroughly, drum out etc. I hope they fix it. Probably was the motor. I saw signs of water or fluid having been present around the motor area. I have to clear lots of space, so a dozen major appliances and 100 vacuums need to find new homes ASAP. |
