Dryer doesn't stop when door is opened. Where is switch?

If not around the edge of the door frame, may be on hinge.

I took the door apart but the parts are not wired. I'll have to figure out how to expose the hinges.
Thank-you.

The front may? Be easily exposed with the removal of only a few screws, some have little tricks to them, may include hinge removal.

Look at the center/top of the opening for a small metal tab(this is the switch), Try a quick spray, may get lucky.

Thank-you Stratmando. The switch IS on the door frame--right top corner. I just hadn't bent down enough to see it. Thank-you again.

Does the switch move or click?

If you flip it and let it snap open, it cuts it off one in five times. Feels like the spring is shot. I ordered a switch from the Sears site you referred me to. Thanks again for your help.
