The Dry Won't Start.

When you open dryer door on my dlg205-w, light comes on but when I close door and press start button, the digital lights don't display and won't turn on. I did the check vent control sensor and still nothing lights up for bars on displays.

Go to the LG website via this link. On that site is an app for your phone which will interact with the dryer interpreting the codes emmited. It should identify where your problem lies and solution. It is the second entry in the help library, smart diagnosis.

Hope that helps.

The door switch activates when the dryer door is closed. On most dryers, the door switch makes an audible clicking sound when it activates. To determine if the door switch is working, try starting your dryer and then listen for the "click." If the door switch makes a clicking sound, it is probably not defective. If you don't hear a click, use a multimeter to use the door switch for continuity. If the switch does not have continuity, replace it.
