Dryer will not start
I replaced the timer asembly, still did not start. I REPLACED THE HEATER SENSORS, TWO OF THEM,THAT DID THE JOB.I suggest to check both heater sensors first, one I missed at the beginning is on the right side of the heating coil, kind of hidden.I believe that one was the problem. I could have saved myself some money if I had found and checked that sensor first.

The dryer would no longer cut off automatically after the clothes were dry
I removed the 3 screws from the front knob panel. The panel popped right off, I then removed the knob and unsrewed the two screws for the timer. You should move one wire at a time from the old timer to the new. Unfortunately, when I got finished, I had an extra white wire. That led me to virtual repairman website to get assistance with matching up the wires correctly. The virtual repairman was kind enough to provide me with a copy of the schematics for this timer. Once I received that information, I was able to get the wires lined up correctly and my dryer is like new.

Dryer would turn off before the selected cycle would run completely.
Step 1. UNPLUG DRYER Step 2. Remove the selector knob(timer). It just slides off by pulling it toward you. Step 3. Remove the back cover of the Control Panel. Three phillips screws along the top and three 1/4" hex head screws along the back. After removing the fasteners lift up on the panel and it can be removed. Step 4. Remove the two 1/4 hex head screws that hold the timer to the control panel. (They are on the front of the control panel under the selector knob that was removed in step 2.) Step 4. Switch over the wires one at a time from the old timer to the new timer. Don't forget to switch over the resistor. **Note**Also pay attention to original position on the timer, it can be installed 180deg's out(upside down) then the knob will not be indexed poperly with the control panel. Reverse the steps to reassemble!
