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.

Answer

Rob, If the timer was in the on position and you are testing red to black you should have 240 vac. If not then test from black to white on the timer for 120 vac. If there is 120 vac present then test the thermostats for continuity. If they have continuity then they are good. Also test the thermal fuse for continuity. If this checks ok then test the heater for continuity and check at the heater by disconnecting 1 leg and testing the disconnected leg for 120 vac and the connected leg for 120 vac both to ground. If there is voltage to ground on both legs then the issue will be the heater. If there is not then trace back to the point of origin for the wire that does not have 120 vac and that would be the part to replace.
