I replaced the timer. Took all of 15 minutes 10 of which were spent looking for the cabinet screws. I did make a mistake when ordering the new timer; Our dryer has a "wrinkle care" cycle. The timer I bought does not have that option. So I just taped the connector and told my wife not to use the wrinkle care feature. I did not realize that all the timers did not have the same features.. So my advice is to talk to an Appliance Pros representative to find out if the part you are buying has all the options your old part has.
