It's been working fine now when I try to start it, it makes the buzzing noise as if the door isn't closed right or the lint trap is is backwards. But the door is closed and the trap is in right. Is there some kind of sensor that can be replaced or what else could this be? Thanks.

Probably a bad sensor, but GE has an incredible line of repair manuals that anyone can follow and diagnose a problem.

They'll tell you what equipment you need, how to do it, and the difficulty level (which should tell you if you can do it yourself, the electrical minded-person can do it, or you should call a repairman).

Usually the most complex item you might possible need is an electrical tester (commonly referred to as a "Multimeter"). One of these would set you back less than $20, and besides helping you fix your dryer, you can also use it to:
Accurately test your batteries (one bad apple can cause you to toss all four)
Check your auto's charging system
Figure out which of the 100 Xmas light bulbs is the bad one.
Use it for kid's school projects.

These are the best appliance repair manuals I've ever seen! At one time I had a fridge, washer, and dryer one. Around 8 years ago, the list price was like $11. They can be purchased on-line or most anywhere that sells GE parts.

I would get one to get an idea of what it could be - even if I didn't want to fix it.

Even if you decide not to fix it yourself, it'll be handy for the next repair, and if you call a repairman, you'll be better off by knowing what he has to do and how hard it is...

Actually, I moved and consequently got to use the Refrigerator one on two different models.

When my washer was leaking like crazy, the neighborhood "expert" said it was a motor seal and I might as well get a new machine (it was 10 years old or a tad more).
I followed the book, pulled the agitator out, popped the top, lifted the drum out and put the giant washer thing (forget what they called it) back on that had come lose and it worked fine again.

I used the refrigerator one to help install an icemaker in the new refrigerator, and figure out that the water in the bottom of the old one was coming from the resevour that fed the cold water dispenser on the door. Never fixed it - just stopped using it - the ice part still worked...

I used the dryer one to figure out which of two parts was making my gas dryer lite and then shut back down almost immediately.
If also warned me that the part was very delicate (ceramic) before I removed it for testing. That was nice - as it was the more expensive of the two parts,, and I'd have probably broken the old one removing it for testing, and then also broken the new one putting it in - had I not known that.

Sorry to examine your unhappy information. an identical question develop into requested on right here 4 years in the past (see link) about how surprising CHF might want to be in canines. that's accessible that the middle might want to have alredy been lower than pressure as a outcome of congenital malformation, viral or bacterial an infection, or maybe the outcome of heartworm. because it got here about on the vets your canines couldn't were in a extra perfect position. Grief is a poor challenge, even with the indisputable fact that that's likewise a mandatory organic healing procedure. Crying freely helps exceptionally and shortly you receives the chuffed options of your lost canines again to you because those you perceive him through.. the first ones that come to options. possibly then evaluate honouring him through training yet another little pal for your puppy each and every thing you discovered from him? i wish this may aid you some closure.

it buzzs and then stops then youve got a bad idler or dirty one. or bad bearings. your squirrel cage fan could have something locking it up as well. i dont remember if a drier has a single phase or 2, but if its 2 it could also be stuck in high because of lint buildup. dont just clean it, replace the seal allowing it to get there as well.
last but not least, you wash to big a load and the belt was(was) slipping, heated the drive pulley and cooked the oil out of the lifetime lube bearings. there is a way to fix that as well. let me know.

Try the simple first. Did you unplug it and replug it? Before you replug it make sure the setting are all set off or not on a cycle.
