Hi there, this sounds like either the bulb or the switch. However your "new bulb @switch" seems to imply that you have already checked them. Can you try to get a multi tester onto the bulb mount to check if there's any current going to the bulb because if it's not the bulb or switch then it has to be the circuit somewhere. I'm sorry but I don't think I have any more suggestions apart from 'put up with no light'. Sorry I can't help any more.

Faulty door switch, Open dryer door, see if light comes on inside the dryer. If it does the door switch is good. If it doesn’t try resetting the breaker. *( dryer bulbs burn out) you may want to replace the bulb if light doesn’t come on before proceeding forward)
The start switch is another cause. You will have to unplug the dryer to check continuity.
A broken drum belt.
Turn timer on a cycle and listen for it making a ticking sound. You should as the timer is the least likely to fail, from my experience.

I have a craftsman 1\2 HP garage door opener, made in '97. It only closes with the two remotes and the outside keypad but doesn't open. I can only open it with the inside console. Also the light is...

There is an antenna extender kit available from Sears or Chamberlain dealers that may help you. The part number is 41A3504.

You can try this for your light problem. Unplug the opener and remove the light bulb. Use a small screwdriver to pry out on the center contact in the socket. Replace the bulb and plug it in. Use only a regular incandescent bulb. Some others will not fit in the socket properly.

I have the bottom freezer w/2 doors up top....light inside will not go off and has started to melt some of the plastic pieces. How do you remove the light bulbs so the darn thing doesn't burn...

There should be a light switch inside each compartment, depress them with the door open one at a time, locate the bad switch and disconnect it. You can remove the bulbs too. Most of the problems with bottom freezer are the door, they seem to not get closed properly and they get heavily frosted, once frosted they seem not to close correctly and cause the lights to remain on.
I would look for the problem with the door closing or the door switch failing.

I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gere_bf68e6055dd61249

How to replace interior dome light bulb?

1) Remove the key from the ignition. Make sure the doors are closed, so the new bulb does not illuminate when you are installing it.

2) Make sure the dome light switch is turned to the "Off" position. Pry the plastic lens away from the dome light. Use a small, flat-head screwdriver.

3) Push back the side bulb clamp. Pull out the old dome lightbulb. Wipe the area with a paper towel if it is dirty.

4) Wrap the new bulb in a paper towel (oil from your skin will shorten its life). Insert it into the dome lightbulb holder. Push it up gently to secure it.

5) Turn the switch to "On" to test the bulb. Reposition the cover and push up to lock the clips into place.

If the bulb doesn't work, you've got a bad switch somewhere, probably on the drivers door.
