Cindy W. for Model Number MDE4000AYW Called to order a timer and was told it may not be the timer. What else can I check if my dryer will not turn off and the knob stays in the same position as well.
Answer Hello Cindy. You will need to test and see if there is 120 volts coming to the timer motor WP33001730. If so, and the timer does not run, you will need to replace the timer. If not, you will need to check the heating circuit and see if the unit is not heating properly. If so, it will cause the timer not to run. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
