Barb September 25, 2023 Dryer will not start when put on timed dryer setting, but will start on automatic side. Then will stop after about 10 minutes of drying time. Do I need to replace the timer part?

Paige August 08, 2020 for Model Number 110.62722101 My dryer timer does not advance and stays running continuously. Should I be replacing the timer or the thermostat? I read here that the thermostat can also be a cause of these symptoms. Where should I start?
1 Answer Hello Paige, if the timer is not advancing in time dry cycle then replace the timer WP8299784. Read More...
Ben J October 16, 2016 The dryer motor does not run when you push the start button but the element gets hot is that a timer or a motor that is bad.
1 Answer Ben, This would most likely be caused by a faulty motor on the unit in which the centrifugal switch is stuck closed. Read More...
Buddy January 13, 2014 for Model Number 110.67522600 The elements keep on when I have timer in timed drying or in auto drying position on timer dial even when the door is open the drum cuts off when door opns but not the heating elements. When I have the timer in the off position the elements go off and don't produce heat. My wife opened the door unloaded the clothes and closed it and usually the elements go off but not now. Please could you tell me what is the problem. Maybe the Timer?
1 Answer Hello Buddy. You need to check the element 279838 and see if it is grounded and is touching metal and needs to be replaced. Read More...
Buddy January 11, 2014 for Model Number 110.67522600 This has just started. With the timer on a drying position like timed dry, even with the door open and the drum not spinning, the heating coil is active and hot. When I put the timer setting in the off position, door open or closed, the coils are not heating. Came home the other night and the coils were on and the top of the dryer was hot. What could be causing this?
1 Answer Hello Buddy, You either have a heating element 279838 burned into and shorting to ground or the centrifugal switch in the motor 279827 is sticking intermittently in the closed position. Read More...
Jesse April 19, 2013 for Model Number Kenmore Electric Dryer 110.67522600 Our dryer is running hot and can not be controlled by the temperature switch. It was noticed about 3 weeks ago and ran in the "normal dry" mode. the dryer ran almost all night. I noticed it still running at 3AM. I checked the Hi-Limit and cycling thermostats. Even putting on griddle to activate after checking at RT. The both work fine. I checked the cycle switch. It was reading 0.01 resistance on low, 6.6 to 7.8 K ohms on medium, and no reading on high. I just replaced it last night and still get the same readings. I am thinking it actually might be the timer. How do I check the timer and/or what else can I check to see what is going on? (Sorry for the long note)
1 Answer Jesse, The unit getting too hot you will want to first check the venting from the blower wheel all the way to the outside of home for clogs or restrictions. If this checks ok and the thermostats check ok then the timer would be the most likely cause. If the timer is not advancing then you would also have a faulty timer. Read More...
Davy99 April 03, 2012 for Model Number 110.67522600 Is there a way to test the timer to see if it functioning properly?
1 Answer Hello Davy99. It depends on the issue you are having, but you can always test the timer. You will use the wiring diagram on the unit to see where the power should be depending on the part of the cycle you are in. If power is coming to the timer, but not going out when it should, you will need to replace the timer WP8299784. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
