Problem
The dryer would keep running and buzzing at the end of the cycle. I had to open the door to stop it. Once closed it would continue again. For normal operations you would need to press the start button once opened and closed. The dryer still worked and was able to use it until the stop/start switch came in by keeping the door open between cycles.
Repair Story
The start switch is very easy to replace. The top panel on the back needs to be removed. There are easy wire connections Read More

Repair & Advice
The start switch is very easy to replace. The top panel on the back needs to be removed. There are easy wire connections that you can pull out. In order to remove the switch there is a top latch on the switch that goes into a groove of the dryer. You have to pull this slightly toward yourself, turn the switch slightly and pull out. The same installation works in reverse. The part worked and dryer works as normal. Whirlpool’s design to switch out smaller parts is the best. My dryer is 15 years old and was able to replace the switch and thermal fuse very easily and save a lot of money.
