Description

This dryer timer controls the cycle selection and run time, advancing the machine through the chosen settings. Replacing a worn timer restores accurate cycle progression and proper shutoff so loads finish as expected.

• Controls and advances the drying cycle based on the knob setting
• Routes power through the correct contacts to the drive motor and heater circuits
• Helps ensure proper transition between heating and end-of-cycle phases
• Common symptoms: cycle won't advance or gets stuck; dryer runs until manually stopped; won't start on certain settings; inconsistent cycle times

Install notes:

• Disconnect power; for gas models, turn off the gas supply
• Access the timer behind the control panel; remove the knob and mounting screws
• Transfer wires to the new timer one at a time, matching terminal labels
• Reinstall the timer and knob, restore power, and run a test cycle
