Janna for Model Number DBXR463EB1WW My timer makes a noise like its counting down but i didn't turn the start switch yet and when i turn the start switch it will not turn on, just the timer noise. It would only work on the timed dry mode not on cotton or easy care mode. i tested the motor, belts and door switch all has good continuity. I already replaced it with a new start switch and start knob hoping that would solved the problem Could this be a wiring problem or the timer itself is bad (even if my old timer has good continuity)? what does the resistor do.? would replacing the timer be what i need to get this dryer running. thank you
Answer Janna, Double check the contacts B-H and B-C on the timer with no power but the timer in a run position. If no continuity then replace the timer. If you have continuity then the door switch and high limit are the only other options other than the motor itself for a no run issue. From what you have replaced I would focus on the high limit which is located in the rear on top of the heater housing on the right side and will have two brown wires going to it. A continuity test can be done here. WE4M137 is the part # for the high limit. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Friday, April 5, 2019
