    1. The front door is not closed completely. The door interlock switch must be activated or it will not start. Open and close the door to see whether it is sticking

    2. Start switch has not been pressed or turned.

    3. Clothes Drum rubber drive belt has stretched or failed. Verify that the drive motor is turning

    4. Clothes Drum drive motor has burnt out windings. Usually this will start with excessive noise if the bearings are failing, the usual cause of motor failure, although dryers must have done a lot of work to get to this stage

    5. Clothes drum is seized. This is causes by mechanical seizing or bearing seizures. It will start with excessive grinding noises first. Remove belts from the drum and it should turn easily by hand.

    6. Seized idler arm and pulley, or the drum support rollers are seizing.
