The Dryer Timer is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. It is a critical component that controls the timing and sequence of the various drying cycles, ensuring the machine operates correctly and efficiently.
Causes of needing to replace the dryer timer can include general wear and tear over time, electrical malfunctions, damage from power surges or voltage fluctuations, or moisture or water exposure within the timer itself.
Symptoms of a bad dryer timer include:
- The dryer failing to advance through the complete cycle or getting stuck in one part of the cycle
- Cycles running for an incorrect duration (too short or too long)
- The dryer failing to heat, tumble, or stop at the appropriate times
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
