Maytag Dryer MDE3000AYW Timer will not advance

This dryer timer controls cycle length and sequencing, advancing the machine through the selected settings and turning it off at the end. Replacing a failed timer restores proper cycle timing, advancing, and dependable automatic shutoff.

• Controls cycle timing and the order of operations throughout the selected program
• Routes power to the motor and other circuits as the internal cam advances
• Advances through timed and automatic cycles to complete the load
• Common symptoms of a failed timer: cycle won't advance, dryer runs too long or won't shut off, won't start or only works on one setting, stops mid-cycle

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, also turn off the gas supply
• Access the control console; remove the old timer from its mounting and note wire locations
• Photograph wiring and transfer leads to the same labeled terminals one at a time
• Reassemble the console, restore power, and test that all cycle positions advance and shut off properly
