Rowaida October 19, 2013 for Model Number ler885dqo My dryer is not working but the timer is clicking.
1 Answer Hello Rowaida. Check and see if the thermal fuse is bad or if the door switch is bad. Either will cause the issue you are having. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Maureen March 25, 2013 for Model Number whirlpool gas dryer LGC6848AQ0 Dryer will not start. My husband checked the fuse, door switch and start button with a volt meter and all is well. If I buy the timer assembly and it does not fix the problem can the part be returned?
1 Answer Hello Maureen. Yes, it can be returned, but most of the time, this is due to a bad motor, not the timer. He needs to test the motor on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

Victorbee March 23, 2012 for Model Number LGT7848AQ0 I just purchased a Timer(AP2973903,or WPL 3397273), RECEIVED WPL 3397273B.( don't know if that "B" at the end means anything). On my old timer looking from the back, it has 3 Terminals on the right-hand-side. W, T, and GY. The T has three(3) prongs. The GY has two(2) prongs. There is a tan wire bridge between one of the prong of the Terminal T and GY. The new Timer, just received, does not have a terminal GY. And the terminal "T" now has four(4) prongs. I need to know the significance of the absence of the GY, and, how to handle the four(4) prongs of terminal "T". Thanks in advance. Victorbee
1 Answer Hello Victorbee, Look at the wiring diagram supplied with the unit in the control panel. In the middle (lower half) of the diagram, you will see the area where it says " Timer Switch 0". There are 2- WB connections -a black heavy denoted line- leading to a GY double connection point. Essentially they have removed this GY terminal point because it was an external jumper from one to another terminal. They have upgraded the timer and now these 2-connection points are internally "bussed"-connected together. Giving the T terminal another post for all wires to connect to. The tan/wht wire and the tan wire (as the same with the other 2- tan wires) connect to the "T" terminal point. Read More...
Albert March 02, 2012 for Model Number LEP6848ANO My Whirlpool electric dryer starts and dries fine but the timer does not advance to the off position for any cycle. Is the timer bad or another part associated with the timer?
1 Answer Hello Albert. Test and see if there is power coming to the timer motor. If so, and the timer does not turn, you will need to replace the timer assembly WP3397273. 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...
Joe October 24, 2011 for Model Number LEP6848AN1 Can timer be turned counterclockwise? When I hit start button, nothing happens. Motor is running,(I can see in small window on motor) but timer is not advancing. Could there be a problem other than timer? (Door swith seems to work properly, start switch resets when door opens.) Thank-you
1 Answer Hello Joe. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the timer WP3397273 is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...
Curtis M. July 31, 2011 for Model Number LE5320XTNO Dryer will not run long on the permanent press cycle. It will cut off but you can restart it and will run again for a few minutes and then cut off again. It will run on the regular cycle and not cut off. Is the timer gone bad? Would I need a new timer assembly? Thanks

Mike July 06, 2011 for Model Number LGC6848AQ2 My drier won't start when I push the start button. If I hold the start button in and move the timer clockwise, when it reaches the low end of two cycles it will start the drum rolling. If I purchase a timer and it still doesn't work can I return the part for a different part or refund?
