Good Luck! A HELPFUL - 4 THUMBS - rating for this solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for using FixYa.

What you describe is either a failed evenheat board or a failed motor relay.
Please post the complete model number from the machine and I can help you narrow it down. There should be a wiring diagram inside the console with voltage checks also.
Thanks/Mike

if the dryer runs when you push the botton in and stops when you stop pushing on the button you have a bad even heat board or a bad motor relay.these parts are located inside the top console,if you send me the model number i can look up your dryer and tell you the part you need to change out

The motor centrifugal switch is not switching from the start winding to the run winding. The switch should stay in the run winding when the motor picks up speed unless power to the motor is interrupted or cut off. The switch is replaceable on most dryer models but sometimes it is an integral or built-in part of the dryer motor and failure of the switch requires the replacement of the motor. Indicate the exact model number of the dryer for more accurate troubleshooting and repair advice.

Open the control panel to access the start switch. If it has 3 wires,replace the start switch. It has a defective coil.

Timer may need to be replaced. You can test it with an ohmmeter or test light.
You can do the same with the push button. If you have more problems, then the main control could be faulty

Ticking sound is the timer running--so it is not the problem unless a contact has failed or a wire has come loose.  Broken door switch, thermostat failed in open position, or clogged lint filter/exhaust vent/outlet would keep unit from running.  If you can hear the motor running but the drum is not turning then the drum belt is broken.

Hi, this is a simple issue here. these switches will fail from time to time. the start switch is unable to hold the circuit, in return, opening it upon release of the button.

Simply replacing the switch will fix this issue. switch is 20 dollars tops.

you can take the top panel back off and check the start button with omes meter,push button in you should get a reading,let button out no reading ,if it fails the test replace,let me know what you find

check also,

• the other ends of all cables connected to the relay,
  if the other end of any part of the latching circuit has loosened, the relay will not latch closed when the start button is pressed.
• Door Switch, it is part of the latching circuit
