1 Answer Hello John, If the model number is actually CEDS832VQ1, this can be the timer WPW10185982. but we actually need the specific cycles it will not operate in for an accurate diagnosis. Read More...
Barry Ward November 21, 2015 for Model Number EE4400WQ0 My dryer takes longer to heat the line on my control knob the mark not on the off mark my dryer will cut off before it get to the off mark. When I start it I have to put it on the off mark when it stop it will before it get to the off mark. I replace the cycling thermostat
1 Answer Barry, You will want to check the venting of the unit to make sure that the vent is completely cleaned from the blower housing to the outside of the home. If this checks ok then the timer would most likely be the issue. Read More...
Julie February 26, 2015 my dryer will advance to the timer off position but makes a ticking noise and drum will continue to turn. does it need a new timer?
1 Answer Julie, It's a very good probability, based on your post information, the timer advances to the "off" increment in the timer cam assembly. The ticking noise is the motor attempting to advance and open the off increment and cant, so the motor continues to run. Read More...
Zan January 29, 2015 for Model Number LE5650XMW1 My timer was not advancing on my whirlpool dryer. Everything else was working fine. I replaced the timer with a new timer from my local appliance parts store. The new timer will still not advance. I realize it's possible that the new timer is bad, but the person at the parts store said they've never had a new timer come back, and that I probably have another issue. I checked the power wire and it seems to be in good shape all the way from the power source. Do you have any other suggestions as to why my timer will not advance?
1 Answer Hello Zan. You will need to check the cycling thermostat WP694674 on the unit. 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...
Kenny September 21, 2014 for Model Number RGX4634KQ2 I noticed my drying cycle was only like 15 minutes whether it was on time dry, air fluff, or any other setting the Roper brand has. I would have to dry my clothes like 5 times for it to get warm. Does this sound like a timer issue, and if not, what do you think the issue may be?
1 Answer Hello Kenny, If the harness is not shorted at any point, the timer WP8299764 will have to be the issue ion this wiring configuration. Read More...
Juke April 09, 2014 for Model Number eed4400wq0 What is wrong with my dryer if it heats up for only a few minutes then just blows cool air. Everything else works fine. Then if I wait a couple of hours before using it again it does the same thing, heats up and then just blows cool air only on all cycles.
1 Answer Juke, The most likely issue with your dryer would be a bad cycling thermostat. If the cycling thermostat is faulty and opening rapidly but then not closing back then this would be the issue. What you would want to do is pull the back cover off of the unit and check the larger terminals on the cycling thermostat when the unit shuts down and see if there is continuity through it. If there is not then that is the issue. The part number for the thermostat is WP3387134. Read More...
Neil January 28, 2014 for Model Number LEQ9858PWO The timer on my dryer does not advance. The dryer works fine, but the timer just stays wherever it is put. If it is in an "on" position, it makes a quiet little "tick, tick, tick" sound. It seems to me that I need to replace the timer. Correct?
1 Answer Hello Neil! Yes, from the information provided it seems you'll need to replace the timer. The timer for your model is part number WP3406725. Thanks! Read More...
1 Answer Hello Shaji. If there is power coming to the 2 black wires of the timer motor, and the timer does not advance, replace the timer on the unit. 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...
Jerry January 27, 2013 for Model Number MDE4000AYW Dryer will not shut off at end of cycle just keeps on going only way to stop it is open the door.
1 Answer Hello Jerry, You will want to look for a bad timer, shorted door switch or a short in the wiring of the unit. Read More...
Dave October 07, 2012 for Model Number RGD4400VQ0 The timer does not advance on auto dry settings only, also seems like it was taking longer to dry on this setting.Disconnected rear vent and made sure lint trap was cleaned and there was no change.
1 Answer Hello Dave, If you have tried the unit without the duct connected, the issue will be one of three things. An open timer motor, a bad centrifugal switch in the motor, or timer switch "0" not making electrical contact. The timer motor will show a resistance, but should not read open or zero resistance. The centrifugal switch will read open unless the centrifugal weight is pushed against the spring tension to simulate the motor spinning the weights out. The timer contact "0" can be checked by testing from the timer motor wire to the orange wire or the white wire with a black trace, depending on the position of the timer knob. This connection, if good, will show zero resistance when the contacts close. This can be determined by studying the wiring diagram. The wiring diagram should be either in the control panel or it is sometimes glued to the rear of the unit. Read More...
