Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Dryer Timer (Part Number: OEM18027096)

1 Answer

Jad, If you're reading 2.37 ohms across the wiries to the timer motor, it's OK. At this point, you'd want to test the door switch WP3406107 for a "closed" circuit, white to blue with the plunger depressed, and then the test thermal fuse WP3392519 located on the blower housing for a "closed" circuit,with the wires off as well. Thanks and Good Luck

Hello Kirk,

The ducting is the problem. It is either crimped or clogged. To prove it to yourself, put the unit on an automatic cycle and disconnect the duct. It will advance after 2 or 3 minutes.

You see, the sensors continue to sense the same moisture over and over again since the moisture cannot escape the dryer. Have a great day!

Hello Don. You will need to check the door switch W10820036 and see if it is broke or bad. If so, it will prevent the dryer from running. Hope this helps.
