Dryer wont start
Checked the fuse - with power on has 120 V across it.
With poer off and fuse removed - shows continuity.
I push the start button and it clicks and nothing happens.
Motor doesn't start Timer doesn't start
Open and close door and switch resets but same result.
No light inside.
If switch did not reset I couldn't even tell I had power without a meter.
I haven't checked any other citcuitry. Any suggestions as to where to go from here.

Ok are you saying that the fuse from end to end has 120V? Even if it reads continuity; if its reading 120V from end to end, the fuse is bad. replace it before you do anything else. and on electric dryers you should have 220v across both top and bottoms of fuses with power applied to the fuses. Any readings beyond or lower indicate a blown fues. But the correct way to check a fuse is with power applied and from end to end of the same fuse. A -0- reading or <10 v is ok with an electronic vom but trust me if its getting 120v end to end (on the same fuse) the fuse is out.
IUf this helped you please rate me accordingly and good luck.
Most dryers need 220volts to work. Sounds like you r missing the other 110volts.
