The Timer is an OEM part for GE electric dryers. It serves as the critical control module that monitors and regulates dryer cycle times during functions like regular, wrinkle guard, fluff and more.
Causes of a bad timer include failure of internal electronic components or wiring connections due to prolonged exposure to heat and vibration inside the dryer cylinder. Mechanical wear of buttons or dials used to program cycles may occur as well over time.
Symptoms of a bad Timer include:
- Inability to set or change desired drying times accurately
- Premature stopping or starting of cycles without user input
- Faulty time or status display windows during use
- Complete shut down requiring manual override or reset
The GE OEM part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA and select Kenmore models.
