If light is ON with door closed, the door switch is not functioning, it will not run as it believes the door is open.

Make sure door is closing properly.

Always check the breakers in your electrical breaker box in house first. I say this because it takes 2 for dryers one for coils and lights the other for motor and thermostats. Next check door switch by listening for contact click sound when you push the door closed if you hear it switch is good and most likely motor is bad.

How to find and replace the thermistor on an amana ned7200tw dryer?

Hi Marissa,
Have you run the diagnostic program to find the fault?
Your problem could be the high limit thermostat, thermal fuse or the heater. Take the panel off at the back and locate the tech sheet. On the tech sheet you will find the instructions for running the diagnostic program. Run the diagnostic program and this will tell you where the problem is and the corrective actions needed.
It is a bit involved to get at the thermistor, but easy to replace. see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCmGRijX_14, as this leads you through the process very well.

Door open all day Amana SXD22S2w

the evaporator is clogged with frost, just as if the defrost heater went out. Two options, remove all food and leave ref unplugged and doors open for half a day, or remove the back wall(evaporator cover) and defrost it with a hair dryer.

Dryer does not turn on

Sounds like the motor relay is not functioning. Sometimes the motor will work if the button is pushed but will stop when the button is released. This is caused by a loose wire at the motor or a bad motor relay.
