Dryer Timer

I unscrewed the back panel took out the broken timer replaced it with new timer put on the new knob and screwed the panel back on.

First, I unplugged the dryer, carefully so as not to electrocute myself. Then, I removed the panel on the top, back of the dryer, using a Phillips screwdriver. Then I removed the old timer and unplugged all the connectors, one at a time, so as to make sure I plugged them back in to the correct positions on the new timer. I had to use pliers because they were very hard to remove. Then, I plugged them into the same positions on the new timer, which was easy. Then I replaced the timer into position. Then, because I could not use the old knob since it still had part of the old cheap soft plastic post stuck inside it, I took a knob for the power rinse control off of my washer, since I never use that anyway, and I put it onto the new cheap soft plastic post on the new timer, and it works like a charm. I plan to be very, very gentle with that knob, knowing, as I do, that the post that it turns is not much harder than room temperature butter and that, if I break it, it will cost me over $70 dollars to get another one, and it also will not even contain a new knob, even though the one I borrowed from my washer will be unusable because it will have half of the old post stuck in it. Finally, I replaced the panel on the top, back of the dryer and plugged in the dryer.

My husband took top off back and went in that way and it was simple to fix. Thank youi

From behind the dryer remove the panel directly behind the timer assembly (6 phillips head screws).
Take a picture at this point of how the wires are attached to the timer assembly for reference during reassembly Then remove wires with pliers. Remove T10 Torx screw that retains the timer assembly in place. Remove timer Knob (pull forward). Rotate timer assembly to pop it out.
From here, twist in new timer, use T10 torx to hold in place re-attach wires and reinstall rear panel

Very Easy installation. Took the back panel off, disconnected the timer, replaced it with new timer from partselect.com., then I put everything back together and attached the knob. The dryer works great and no more pliers!. Thank you to the associate that help me make sure I had the correct parts, and I am very satisfied with the service. I would Recommend this sight to anyone. Thanks Again.

Took back top off of dryer.5 wires connected to timer.I took 3 off,after unplugging dryer first,of course.I remembered which wire went where,then unplugged other 2.Replaced the back of dryer.Plugged it in,works just fine.Wife happy,me happy.

I simply took the back panel behind the timer unplugged the old part and when the new part came in I hooked it back up in less than 5 minutes. I did mark each wire to match order I took them out.

Husband took off the back of dryer and took off old timer and replaced it with the new, put on new knob, worked great, Ordered it on day, and we received it the next day, thank you for the quick delivery.

Followed the directions but met resistance when the
timer could not be slipped off the "peg".
This timer was installed with a very small screw to remove
and install the new timer.- Thus, called an electrician
who had the very small screw driver to install the timer!
So $$$$$$$$$$. unhappy about this!

Pulled dryer out from wall and used screwdriver to remove back plate and screw holding timer controller. Once loose I then held new part next to old part and switched wires one at a time, afterwards I replaced back and pushed dryer back into position.
