My ge door buzzes the locks and i hear some humming underneath drum but no water filling up drum. humming lasts 5 minutes the unit resets back to original time without doing anything. could my door lock be bad?
Can you take a look at the pump to see check why it is able to pump-in water ? Motor is still good as you can hear it trying to pump-in water.
If you hear the motor humming and not starting at all it most likely has a severe friction problem with the drum or motor. It could possibly have some type of garment jamming the blower wheel preventing the motor from starting too.
Open the dryer door and manually rotate the dryer drum counter clockwise (CCW). It should take very little effort to rotate the drum. If it's hard to rotate that could explain why the motor hums instead of starting up. If it turns freely, shut the door and see if will start. If it still hums and not start it may have bad motor or a low voltage supply to the motor.
