This unit has a belt switch ( W10411937) located on the motor frame, you should first check to see if the belt is not broken, or has not come off track. This can be done by disconnecting power and removing the toe panel to view inside the unit. Pleazer Appliance...

SOURCE: My Dryer will only work if I hold start button, when I release start button the dryer stops.

Anra, this is a classic symptom of a failed even heat board. I've seen a lot of these failures out there. Easy to change out. Check out this link. Catriver..post back http://www.repairclinic.com/0080.asp

Lights come on, press start and nothing ..

Start Switch is bad, When they go out it leave's a open circuit and all light will come on but no action.
After the circuit is closed then it tells the dryer to start cause the circuit activates both the timer and the motor.

Good Luck

Turn on power, the lights come on but when you press start nothing happens just a click sound.

Click sound at power button and start button should get it going. If not then Dryer drum is not turning.
