Tom for Model Number whirlpool dryer wed5600vqo The dryer runs and drys fine but after it has gone trough a cycle and turned off , the timer keeps running through the next cycle option and sometimes turns back on. Is the the timer or another heat or mositure sensor?
Answer Hello Tom, This issue would be caused by a bad timer WP8566184. When the unit is in the off position. If you would want to check power to the timer. If you are getting 120vac between BU and WB then you have a bad timer. If you leave door open and still have power going betwen these connections then you would be looking for a short to ground. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
