Hello Anna. It is made with new contacts and will not click when it is new. As long as it works and advances, it is fine.

Hello Paul, The timer would not have anything to do with the heating if the unit is working in all other cycles. I know that you checked the venting to the outside of the home but you may want to check the blower wheel to make sure that there is not excessive lint build up and check to make sure that the blower wheel is not damaged causing poor airflow.

Hello Steve, Remove the knob and try to turn the stem with pliers. If it is hard to turn, the timer WE4M527 will require replacement. Many times a bad timer will cause the knob to crack.

Carmen, Here's a bit of information " To access the dryer controls, disconnect power and remove the four Phillips screws at the top of the switch trim. Grasp the trim at the top and pull forward. Three tabs at the bottom fit into slots on the top panel." Once you pull the timer knob off, be careful and don't loose the knob clip WH01X10106 and have the control panel down and access to the timer, you will need a flat blade screwdriver to raise the tabs holding the timer to the console and turn the timer assembly to dislocate it from the panel. Install the new timer, then take one wire off at a time, and install it on the new component, Make sure the wire is attached to the same terminal of the new timer. reverse the procedure and test the dryer operation. Thanks
