Dryer turns on and heats but after 15 minutes it shuts down, you have to open door and let it cool down or if you wait a while it will restart on its own if you don’t open the door up, 2 months ago I disassembled the vent tube and cleaned thought that was it. Still does it. Thanks in advance for any advice!

HOW DO I. MAKE THE DRYER STOP WHEN THE CYCLE IS DONE? AFTER A FEW MINUTES, IT STARTS UP AGAIN AUTOMATICALLY. I ASSUME THIS IS TO ASSIST IN WRINKLE CONTROL, BUT ONCE THE CLOTHES ARE DRY, I DON'T WANT THE DRYER TO START UP AGAIN. I WANT IT TO STOP WHEN THE SET CYCLE IS DONE.

Dryer Would Not Turn Off With Door Open
Pryed dryer top open and opened front door. . Unscrewed the 2 retaining screws. Pulled old switch from the wiring harness. Put new switch in place and replaced the retaining screws. Put new switch wire plug into the wiring harness. Before closing top, checked door switch function with dryer on. Dryer cut off when door open and when closed dryer started normally. . . Maint. Note instruction book should warn that letting door slam, which I did on occaision, broke the switch arm. Might save future problems.

Dryer wouldn't turn on b/c door switch broken
It was simple once I figured out what to do:). I removed the 2 screws on the top of the dryer... they were a bit hard to find. Even with the other descriptions on this site. I was removing things I didn't need to. The 2 screws you need to remove are under the LINT COLLECTOR LID. Remove those 2 screws & lift the lid... it will be tight at first. the front of the lid has 2 "catches" in the corners.

The hardest part was getting the door switch assembly to "unplug". We pried it off -- eventually -- & then simply plugged in the new one.

Saved me LOTS of money & was worth the 30 minutes - 1 hour of work.

As I said previously, once you realize how to get the lid up & manage to pry off the plug, that's all there is to it -- easy!

Save yourself time & money & do it yourself!
