1 no heat on high or low settings and sometimes on medium heat setting 2 no auto cool down Robert H. • Renton , WA • March 11, 2015
I replaced the cycle switch, fixing the lack of heat. The timer switch replacement fixed the auto cool down. I watched a cycle switch replacement on Youtube, demonstrating removal of the top console, which answered the only question I had about the repair. The timer switch was a hundred bucks. The only thing to be said about that is that it was a lot cheaper than a repairman or replacing the dryer.

Dryer timer would not turn and knob broke from the strain Bruce B. • Birmingham , AL • October 17, 2014
I ordered the timer and knob on Monday, they arrived around noon on Tuesday, and within an hour I had them installed and back in business. I was amazed how quickly the parts got here. The online video showing the procedure step by step was very helpful. Instead of disconnecting all the wires and having to keep up with which one went where, I moved each wire one by one and made sure I didn't get any of them in the wrong place. The only thing that slowed me down a bit was seeing which side of the...

Broken belt switch Jack F. • Hermosa Beach , CA • July 08, 2016
Every time I tried to start our dryer, the "Sensing Light" came on, I heard a little "click," and the dryer would not start.
According to the very helpful Appliance Parts Pros. videos, I was able to dismantle, diagnose a few components, and discover the broken part. In this case, it was a Broken Belt Switch.
I ordered the part, we went on vacation for a week, and when we returned home the part was at our residence. The next day, I installed the part and all is good now.
