My Hotpoint dryer will not stop working/spinning when you open the door. You have to switch off at the mains each time to get it to stop. Is there a safety switch for the door and if so how do i check / change it?
Look inside frame by door take out switch and replace it
Testimonial: "Thanks for your help and quick response. I took the switch out (held in with 1 screw and on spposite side to hinges). Should anything be attached to it, i.e; a wire of any kind as the switch, rectangular in shape, came out without having to unplug anything. How does it work?"

hi there james just check if u can move the inner drum by opening the door and place your hand on the inside with your fingers facing down if the drum moves even slightly when u pull your fingers up then it will more then likely be your bearings which are situated at the back m8

i had this problem but it is NORMAL. only when the empty water light is flashing it needs emptying, i thought there was an internal problem but like i say it is normal to stay on solid throughout your drying and even when you just switch it on. i found this out in my manual
SOURCE: How do i clean the condenser on my hotpoint tdc32?
Remove condenser, and flush it out under a running tap, or hose pipe with cold water, this will flush all the fluff out of the condenser
Please rate my solution.
Thanks.

ALWAYS UNPLUG YOUR DRYER BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO DO ANY WORK ON IT.
Sounds like your problem may be the belt has slipped off of the motor pulley, or idler arm pulley.
If you have to replace your drum belt and if you have a front loading machine.
Remove the electrical console that holds the timer switch, start switch, etc. from the top of the dryer. Be real careful not to knock any of the wires off of the timer switch. Then remove the top of the dryer.
Remove the front of the machine, this will expose the belt and drum, remove the drum and belt and this will expose the drum rollers, idler arm bracket with pulley, and motor with pulley. Pay attention to the route of the belt, this will come in handy when you go to reinstall the belt and drum.
Sometimes the belt will slip off of the idler arm or motor causing the drum not to turn and produce a burning rubber smell.
While you have the drum out, I would recommend that you lubricate the drum rollers at the shaft of the roller with a good grade of machine oil like 3 in One oil. This will save you a problem later with the rollers getting noisy, also check your drum rollers for flat spots, if they have flat spots on them this will cause a noise like a thumping type noise. You will need to replace the drum rollers if they have flat spots on them.

I removed the switch. Should there be any wire/wires attached to it as it just seemed to come out on its own after removing 1 screw.
