Anthony May 31, 2022 for Model Number WTW4816FW0 Can a buzzer be installed on this model of washer? Thank you
Scott March 28, 2021 for Model Number LDE612 How do you tell if the buzzer is bad on a dryer? Mine won't start just buzzes, is it bad? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Scott, the buzzer is wired into the motor circuit, if the motor cannot start the buzzer will sound as it does at the end of the cycle as the motor slows and stops., suggest you check the motor is getting 120v when the start switch is pressed. Read More...
Claudia Robison December 18, 2020 for Model Number LE6150XS buzzer won't stop sounding at the end of the cycle even though it has stopped drying unless we open the door or turn on a new cycle. What replacement part do I need and do you sell it?
1 Answer Claudia R, Based on the information provided the timer would be the issue as the buzzer is working, unfortunately that part is no longer available. Link: https://www.appliancepartspros.com/whirlpool-timer-696877-ap2910978.html This par has been discontinued by the manufacturer & is no longer available. No alternate or substitute part has been recommended by the manufacturer. We are sorry for any inconvenience. Read More...

Attila October 22, 2019 for Model Number MGD5800TW0 Hi the switch button on my dryer doesn’t stay on when I push it ? Do I need a new start button or is some relay , thank you .
Tom May 20, 2019 for Model Number Whirlpool Ultimate Care II Washer GSW9800P Washer fills, agitates, pauses drains (no spin during drain), then spins, refills for rinse, pauses, then drains (no spin during drain) BUT buzzer sounds all during this drain period, then pauses, and spins and completes cycle fine. I can avoid the buzzer during the second drain period if, during the pause simply push in or out 1 time the control knob. I have bypassed the lid switch, but it had the same effect with the buzzer as pushing in or out the timer control knob so I thought maybe lid switch was bad so bypassed it. It still buzzes while draining on the drain after rinse. So I know lid switch not the problem, and if I tolerate that horrible buzzer it does everything as it should so I believe my buzzer switch is bad. Can I simply unwire the buzzer switch or replace the buzzer switch? Thanks for any advice you can give. Tom
1 Answer Tom, Its sounds like you have some stuck contacts in the timer. If contacts 9 and 32 or 32r is closed during the spin setting replace the timer. Read More...
Kenny April 07, 2019 for Model Number WED4815EW1 The dryer starts using the start button, but the timer dial doesn't move. Therefore the dryer never turns itself off. Is this the timer and motor switch or just a timer??
1 Answer Kenny, If your unit is heating correctly when running you can test the connector on the top of the timer motor for 240 vac. It should be a black wire and a white with blue stripe wire. If no voltage found in a run position then replace the timer. Read More...
Sue A. April 07, 2018 for Model Number Dryer ID DBXR453V Would you explain what the harness and timer is? Also, would it be possible to add an interior light--there is a push button on the door. Thank you
1 Answer Hello Sue, You would need to order WE5M48, WE2M196, WE05X20431, and WE4M415 to add a light. This unit could not have an end of cycle buzzer installed since this would require re-engineering some of the wiring and the timer for the unit. Read More...
Sue A. April 06, 2018 Can a GE electric dryer be modified to add an end-of-cycle buzzer and an interior light? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Sue, Some models can be changed but this can get expensive when the timer and harness have to be changed. It would really depend on the model number involved since few can be changed over and many cannot. If you would like, you can post a new question including the model number from your units' I.D. tag and we can check into this for you. Read More...
Richard March 27, 2018 for Model Number Whirlpool Dryer LEQ8858HQ1 Hi, the end of cycle buzzer has stopped working, Also, the dryer has a finish guard feature that would intermittently run and fluffs the clothes at the end of cycle that no longer works, the timer just keeps advancing and will eventually stop the dryer.
1 Answer Hello Richard. It sounds like the timer has failed and will need to be replaced on the unit. Make sure the buzzer and finish guard switches are good first. Read More...
