Product Description

Timer Specifications

This dryer timer is a genuine manufacturer replacement part that is specially designed to fit with dryers. You can locate the timer behind the control panel of your dryer. The timer controls the duration of the drying cycle. It allows users to set a specific amount of time for the dryer to run before automatically shutting off. This feature enables you to customize the drying process to your needs based on the type and amount of laundry you are drying. If the timer is faulty, the dryer may fail to start, stop running midcycle, or run indefinitely. You may also hear a clicking sound when you turn the timer knob or you may be unable to move the knob altogether.

Sorry, we couldn't find any existing installation instruction that matched.
Timer knob stopped moving/counting down, never stopped heating & running
Need to access back of dryer so you probably have to take exhaust hose loose as I did b/c mine was aluminum foil flex type. Was an oppt'y to clean it but fiddly when reinstalling. Since the control panel is tilted slightly back for ease of use, I tilted the whole dryer forward to get better access to timer mounting screws. Very easy install. Even though there are a lot of wires, they are grouped into 4 molded connectors which are all different shapes, so you can't get it wrong. You might have to pry a little to get them off and I suppose you could break the connectors if you are too rough. There is a fifth separate small connector with 2 black wires and that one is hard to release. You have to press a release tab down and fiddle a bit.
As you face the cabinet from the back do note the timer's left mounting screw also shares holding an L-shaped bracket to secure the buzzer, and if you reinstall putting the buzzer bracket first you will not be allowing the timer to rest flush with the back of the control panel. So I installed the right screw back first which held the timer tight enough to then line up buzzer bracket with left screw hole in timer. Also note when seating the timer in place there are two protruding dimple things on the front which fit into two holes drilled in the dryer to be sure timer is properly oriented up and down so that it looks right when put back together with writing around knob pointer.

Timer was not working when set for timed drying
Replaced dryer timer with a new one. Was really easy to replace. Just had to remove timer knob and back cover to get to timer. Then removed all wiring harnesses from the timer and unscrewed the two screws that holds it in place. Installation of new timer was in reverse order. Tested new timer and it solved the problem.

Timer not advancing
Timer-Removed the screws from top back panel from behind the dryer. Removed the screws on timer. Replaced one wire connection at a time. Remounted timer and put panel back on.

Thermal fuse- also because it seams to fail a lot and I was already working on the dryer. Removed lower back panel. Found fuse. Unscrewed the one screw. Disconnected fuse and put new one in. Kept old one as a back up.

Total time between replacing the thermal fuse and the timer-1/2 hr.

A little pricey, but the dryer is only 3 yrs old and I was able to fix it! Hope it will last us for several years.
Other Parts Used:
Timer Dryer Thermal Fuse
