Maytag Dryer LDE9316ADE Timer will not advance

This dryer timer is the cycle control that sequences power to the motor and heater so the dryer advances through settings and shuts off at the correct time. Replacing a worn timer restores consistent cycle timing and dependable operation.

• Controls the duration and order of drying operations
• Routes power to motor and heating circuits, advances the dial, and turns dryer off at end of cycle
• Common failure symptoms: cycle won't advance or runs indefinitely
• Won't start when the timer is set/turned
• Shuts off too soon, won't shut off, or inconsistent auto-dry performance

• Disconnect power; for gas models, also shut off the gas supply
• Access the timer inside the control console; remove knob/dial and mounting screws
• Label or photograph wiring; transfer one wire at a time to matching terminals
• Secure the timer, reassemble, and test a short cycle
