Michael November 26, 2018 for Model Number 11096583110 Sirs, My Kenmore dryer timer will advance a little and then stops. Dryer is still running fine and heating, but has stopped advancing. Does the timer need replaced or is it something else? Thanks

Dukenc June 09, 2013 for Model Number Kenmore model/stock # 96588210 switch # 3398194 Hello my Kenmore electric dryer all of a sudden would stop a couple of times in the mid drying cycle. When I pushed the start button it would work fine and cycle thru. Heat did not seem to be an issue. Today when I went to press the start button the dryer will not start. I tried turning the timmer knob thru a few cycles and it still will not start? Could it be the timmer switch? The pn is 3398914 . Thanks in advance for your help.
1 Answer Duke, It could be the timer, but you'd actually want to test the door switch and start switch first. It's more likely to have a bad switch, W10820036 or WP3395382, than a bad timer contact with the issue as you describe it. Read More...
Karin September 17, 2012 for Model Number 11097584800 The dryer stops in mid cycle. When I turn the knob it works for a bit and then stops again. What part # do I need to fix this.
1 Answer Hello Karin. If the unit needs to cool for a few minutes and then starts and runs, it sounds like the motor is bad and will need to be replaced in the unit. Read More...
