Part Number: OEM18040149
Manufacturer Part Number: WP8566184

The Dryer Timer is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It controls the drying cycles by regulating the duration and sequence of operations, ensuring that clothes are dried properly according to the selected settings.

Over time, the dryer timer can wear out due to regular use, electrical issues, or internal mechanical failures. A faulty timer can lead to cycles not starting or ending correctly, resulting in under-dried or over-dried clothes.

Symptoms of a bad Dryer Timer include:

  • The dryer not advancing through cycles
  • The timer not moving or stopping
  • Inconsistent drying times or the dryer stopping mid-cycle

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Answer

Ryan, if you have a multimeter, take the cover off of the power cord terminal block and see if there is 120 volts from the black to the white connection, 120 volts from red to white, and 240 volts from black to red. If the voltage is not there, something has happened to the voltage going to the dryer and you may have a breaker that has tripped or a blown fuse, depending on how your supply box is set up. If the voltage is correct, you will need to start tracing the voltage and finding out where it stops. There should be a wiring diagram in the control panel area.
