Customer Questions and Answers for Timer by Whirlpool

The Timer is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This part manages the duration of the drying cycle. This part plays a role in the operation of your dryer, ensuring that clothes are dried efficiently and thoroughly within the predetermined time. 

Common issues include cycles that end too soon or run much longer than necessary, which can lead to clothes being damp after a cycle or excessively dry and potentially damaged. 

Symptoms of a bad Timer include:

• The dryer not starting when the timer is set and the start button is pressed.
• The dryer stops mid-cycle, which indicates that the timer contacts aren’t working properly.
• Unusual or no ticking sound from the timer.
• Clothes not drying properly due to the dryer not adhering to the selected time.

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