Jim for Model Number MDG7658BWQ I have the same problem as many I have already read. When you pull the on/off switch the dryer does not turn on unless you jiggle it or turn it in a different popsition. I am pretty sure I need a timer, for the contacts went bad. So which part number do I need? The number on the part is 3139B MAYTAG 63720660M285 KINGSTON 71016-A03214. Also, how do you remove the old timer? Thanks, Jim.
Answer Hello Jim! The timer is part number WP33002803. Here are the instructions from the manufacture on how to remove the timer, you will install in reverse order. Thanks! 1. Disconnect power to the appliance. 2. Carefully lift the timer knob and dial off the timer shaft by pulling the knob away from the face of the control console. 3. Remove the two timer mounting screws (now exposed on the control console) when the timer dial skirt is removed. 4. Disengage the console assembly from the top cover and roll forward. Read More...
