If you have a meter: unplug the dryer, unplug one wire to the switch and measure the resistance when the button is pushed. Should close ( 0 ohms)
If you do not have a meter: unplug the dryer, short the two start button wires together, tape them together to make sure they cannot short to anything, plug the dryer in.
If it runs you know it is the start switch
