Unit opened the door on the clothes dryer to check it while it was still running, the light didn't come on inside and the dryer kept right on running. She had to torque the master control to OFF to make it stop.
Take the top off it it, BFS for a pry bar and an LFS to remove the 2 screws that hold the top to the lint chute. That seemed backward, seems the lint chute should come up with the top of it, but it doesn't.
Troubleshoot. It's the door switch, made in China. Unit's ordering us one, $5.55.
In the meantime, I'm thinking about how to make the clothes dry faster. We got a nifty two-sunflower radiant shop heater from Dan Stokes, it sits on top of a propane tank. (((Thanks again Dan, I won that trade - you only got a spaghetti dinner you had to doctor up to make it be right.))))
So, since the dryer will heat and tumble with the door open with that bad door switch, we can set up that propane shop heater in front of the dryer going with the door open, and use that most excellent propane heat to dry the clothes even more while it's tumbling the clothes around and heating from the inside, too.
What could go wrong? Hotrod clothes dryer. I think it'll work. Film at eleven....
