maytag mgde300vfo gas dryer won’t start , it makes a sizzling sound and smells like a electrical part is burning . When I plug in back in no smell drum light comes on no lights on control panep, tried a 2 sec on off 7 times to get it to give codes but started smelling bad as soon as I tried control light did light up though. no problems with it since we bought it 7 yrs ago vents are not blocked in or out Power coard looks ok no sign of burnt wiring on motor or wiring. Belt looks good all the way around pulley and tension wheel looks good, when I turn the tub there is no resentence either way. watched your video but how do I check to see if it is control panel or motor?

hi. Its sounds like something on the control board is burning. I would remove the top panel by removing the 3 screws in the back and inspect the board and wiring for any burnt marks and replace it if your find any. The Fuse may also be bad as well. Also, check the terminal block that the power cord attaches to at the dryer.
