Shermine October 12, 2025 for Model Number LE6900XK I have an electric Whirlpool Dryer (from the 1980's) Model #LE6900XK. The mechanical timer won't advance. The dryer will run, continually, with no heat. After doing a little research, it seems that the the timer unit needs to be replaced? Is this part still available?
1 Answer Hello Shermine, and thank you for your question. Unfortunately, the timer 690338 used with your model is no longer available from the manufacturer. Read More...
Bob October 21, 2024 for Model Number CE2950XYW3 Does that loose wire marked “ timer connect to something? I’m getting continuity between circuits A tabs( powers the motor) and B circuits ( powers the heating element. Yellow seems to be 120v hot in and from a burned terminal ( due to coins pile up in the timer compartment) red looks to the other hot wire. So the dryer works all the time. I thought I got no continuity right out of the box, but then after activating the timer, it’s always on. Could the plastic wheel be mis aligned such that the timer won’t shut off? Thank you Model CE2950XYW3
1 Answer Hello Bob, thank you for contacting Appliance Parts Pros. There should be a connection for TM1 coming from the harness of the unit. This may be part of your unending cycle problem. The other thing I would look for is to make sure the cam that came on the new timer has the same # of pins or holes along the outer edge as the cam on the old timer. If not then you will need to change the cam on the new timer to the equivalent cam that should have come with this kit. Read More...

1 Answer Larry, based on the model number you supplied, you have installed the wrong timer. The correct timer for a CME2760KQ1 is 279737 / 279737 Timer Kit (Includes 4-Pin Cam). Install the proper timer and make sure you've wired it correctly. If the problem persists repost your question. Thanks, Read More...
Joefish September 23, 2016 for Model Number Whirlpool D433 elect I replaced the burned-up heat box and both temp thermmisters but the dryer will not start and run. 220 volts is there.

Ritchie July 10, 2016 for Model Number GEQ8858KQ0 Lightning possibly hit my breaker box burning out my ground on the left side of the box. Now my dryer is blowing thermal fuses and the timer does not stop at the end of the accu cycle and continues to run until the next stop setting. It never did this before the lightning strike. Could it have damaged my timer or circuit board and what could cause it to continue to blow thermal fuses mounted on the heating element? The exhaust vent is clean and blower fan blows strong.
1 Answer Hello Ritchie, I'm sorry but the part you are most likely to need 3390537 has been discontinued by the manufacturer and no satisfactory substitutions have been provided. Read More...
Steve May 27, 2016 for Model Number 279737 Installed timer. Dryer runs after inserting coins and pressing start button. "Blowing cool" light "Green" stays on for 30 min. Then "Drying" light comes one "red" at the very end for a minute or two at end of cycle. I noticed you sent someone a wring diagram..is there a picture available?

Chris August 13, 2015 for Model Number CEM2750KQ1 The coin timer doesn't turn off the machine when I manually move the dial. Or did I break it by moving the dial.
1 Answer Hello Chris. If you manually advance to off, and it does not stop, you will need to replace the timer on the unit. It should stop when advanced to off. Read More...
Mansour March 25, 2015 for Model Number 11070172001 Timer runs for 2 hours instead of 45 minutes. What could be the problem? Thanks
1 Answer Mansour, You will want to check the timer cam to make sure that there is no damage to it and if this checks ok then the timer would most likely be the cause for this issue. Read More...
Jeff December 31, 2014 for Model Number WHIRLPOOL ELECTRIC DRYER Model #CEM2743BQ0 The coin operated timer intermittently will not actuate with coin slide. I removed the assembly and it appears that ever 5-10 activations the mechanical trigger cocks but then sticks partially on the return. It will not spring back enough to trigger the switch until it is actuated 1-3 times. Is there an adjustment for this or should it be replaced?
1 Answer Hello Jeff. It sounds like it either needs to be lubricated or replaced. There is no adjustment. Read More...
