VIDEOClick to see full answer. Also asked, where is the thermal fuse on a GE dryer?In GE dryers, the thermal fuse–sometimes called a safety thermostat–is located behind the drum on the inside of the dryer. To access the thermal fuse you will need to open the dryer from the top.Additionally, how do you fix a dryer that won’t turn on? Unplug the dryer and check the thermal fuse for continuity. Replace the thermal fuse if the multimeter measures no continuity. Check the exhaust vent because a clog in the vent likely caused the thermal fuse to blow. For dryers with a dial timer, a broken push-to-start switch can prevent the motor from running. Regarding this, how do you start a GE dryer? Check that the dryer door is closed tightly. Make sure that the cycle selection button is positioned on the desired temperature, fabric, and drying time. Ensure that the START button has been depressed completely. Open the dryer door and inspect the condition of the door switch.Can I bypass my dryer door switch?1 Answer. It is a safety switch designed to prevent the drum from turning while the door is open. If the switch were removed and the circuit closed by connecting the wires the drum will turn and the dryer will work. Can you get someone to tell you it is an okay thing to do, not likely.
