Crosley Dryer light is out
If your Crosley dryer light is out, the most likely cause is a bad light socket or a loss of voltage at the socket. Start by checking the bulb and then use a multimeter to see if power is reaching the socket; if voltage is present and the bulb is good, replace the socket. Next most likely are problems with the control electronics: the control panel, touchpad, or user control and display board often house the indicator lights and must be replaced as assemblies when their lights fail. A faulty door switch can also prevent the interior light from getting power, so test the switch for continuity while actuated. Less commonly the entire light assembly will be burned or damaged and need replacement. If you need a part, enter your model number at RepairClinic.com to find the exact replacement parts for your dryer and get clear repair guidance so you can fix it yourself with confidence.
01 - Crosley Dryer Light Socket
If the light itself is newly installed or shows no signs of damage, yet still won't work, it's possible the light socket is defective. You can use a multimeter to test whether or not voltage is reaching the light socket. If the meter shows that power is reaching the light socket then it's likely the socket is malfunctioning and will need to be replaced.

If the switch doesn't provide appropriate continuity, it will need to be replaced.
