Dont bypass the door switch. They are installed so your neighbours cat or kid is safe!. If you think it maybe the door switch, push "a piece of insulated key" into the actuating hole . If you hear a click and it goes, with timer set to dry, great!. Try longer actuating peg, or change switch. If not... could be thermostat , located on front panel under drum. Nightmare!.
