Karen R Spring Hill , FL July 25, 2014 Whirlpool electric dryer timer broken Watched Appliance Parts Pros.com video which really helped a lot. Removed dial, back of panel and then old timer switch - worked slowly and carefully, one wire at a time and put all bolts and screws back and it worked. My biggest problem was that I am a 57 year old overweight female and the working space was limited BUT....I FIXED IT. Thank you. 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes
