Dryer won't start once button pushed.

Dryer makes the buzz sound as if it is starting, but once start button is released, dryer does not come on. Is there a reset button of some sort that can solve this?

Most of the time this is caused by the centrifical switch you can take the dryer apart and clean the motor some times this will fix if not replace the motor try setting the timer to 60 min open the door hold down the door button and give the drum a good spin clockwise but watch your hand so the drum dont rap your nuckles

Push the start button. The dryer will run. Release start button and the dryer stops. The end of cycle chime sounds. The timer ticks. Placed all controles in every position and the results are the same.If...

probably has a broken belt,there is what is called a "Broken Belt" switch by the motor inside on the idler pulley tensioner for the belt,if the belt breaks this switch opens so the dryer wont run without the drum turning so as not to overheat and burn your clothes,replace the drum belt and you should be good to go

When i push the start button the dryer buzzes like it wants to turn on but does not start turning. then it stops buzzing when i release the start button.

SOUNDS LIKE A MOTOR WINDING. GRAB A HELPER TO PUSH TO BUTTON WHILE YOU HOLD THE DOOR SWICH IN AND TURN THE DRUM SEE IF IT STARTS THEN. YOU MAY NEED A MOTOR.

Dryer work turn on, buzzes when start is pushed

It may be just your timer switch. Look at all the wiring first. The receptacle to the plug, cord and into the back of the dryer.
