This dryer has power but when the start button is pushed it doesn't do a thing. Any ideas?
I replaced the thermal fuse and still doesn't work. There is power.
How do you test the timer to see if it is good?

You may only be getting half the power to your dryer.

Check the voltage at the plug.

If you are getting 240v then it could be the thermal fuse has opened.

This fuse is inside the dryer and will have to be replaced.

Here is a link to the parts for your dryer model 11060712990.
