Timer Resistor Assembly WP31001484

Hi Dawnell, Thank you for your question. It sounds like it may be the timer. You will need to test it with a multimeter. Here is a link from our website that you may reference on how to test the timer, https://www.partselect.com/Dryer+test-timer+repair.htm. If it is not the timer causing the issue, there are some other parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the the fuses, the belt, the door catch and strike, the timer resistor assembly, the high limit thermostat, the control thermostat and the door switch, the heating element and the drive motor. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Hello Don, thank you for your question. You should be able to read 3.7 K ohms resistance across the resistor, if not then it needs to be replaced. Good luck with your repair!

Hello George, Thanks for your question. If the dryer is not starting, we would recommend using a multi-meter to test the high limit thermostat and thermal fuse (part number PS2162282) for continuity, and replacing it if it shows no continuity. Check the drive belt (part number PS346995) and see if it is damaged. If it is, replace it. Also consider testing the timer (part number PS11742813) for continuity and checking the wiring. Replace it if it shows no continuity. Finally, check the motor (part number PS3497647), especially if it makes any humming noise. Remove the belt from the motor and check the blower wheel for obstructions. If it is clear of obstructions, you may wish to replace the motor. I hope this helps.

Hi Daniel, Thank you for your question. Here is a link from our website that you may reference on how to test the timer, https://www.partselect.com/Dryer+test-timer+repair.htm. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Hello Doug, Thank you for the question. In order to help we will need a bit more information. When you start the appliance do you hear the motor running or trying to run? Is there heat or no heat when you hear the timer running? Is there any noise other then the ticking of the timer? Please submit a new question if you have any follow ups.Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello Clint, Thank you for your inquiry. I would also check your thermostats-both internal bias and high limit thermostat with thermal cut off, your timer switch, the belt and idler pulley assembly, and your power supply. Hope this helps!

Hi Jason, Thank you for your question. If the timer is not advancing you will need to check the timer knob, the belt, the timer resistor and the timer. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Hi Mary, Thank you for your question. The timer and the element are in different locations on the dryer. It is possible that the wiring may not have been reconnected correctly. You will need to check the wiring to make sure everything is correct. If it is, you will need to test the timer with a multimeter to see if it is working correctly. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Hello Mary, thank you for your question. Yes it is possible that the timer was not connected correctly to the unit, or the connection wire is not on tightly. I would check the wires coming to the timer. If those wires are connected and on tightly, I would recommend replacing Timer Resistor Assembly WP31001484. I hope this helps!

Hello Don, thank you for your question. There is one thermal fuse on the unit. The thermal fuse with the pink dot is for the electric dryer the one with the yellow dot is for gas dryers. I hope this helps!
