Mick for Model Number mde308dayw Automatic timer will not advance. And clothes take forever to dry completely, there is heat present. Cleaned vent inside and out. Changed cycling thermostat and there is no difference. Any help would be appreciated.
Answer Hi Mick. Start by replacing the timer part # WP37001251. Make sure your sensor bars below the lint screen inlet are scuffed off w/scotch brite pad. This will allow the clothes to pass over them and be sensed better. Make sure you have the proper 240 vac to the terminal block and 120 vac from each end leg(blk and red wire) to the center white wire (neutral) wire. Make sure the connections are tight. Make sure your temperature selector is positioned correctly part # WP37001164. Let us know if we can help further once these all have been checked. If the timer is sticking then you need to start there as it may just repair all. Thank You. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Tuesday, February 7, 2012
