When to Replace

• Timer Won't Advance: The dryer continues to run indefinitely in a timed cycle, or the dial gets stuck at a specific point.
• Dryer Won't Start: The timer does not send power to the drive motor when the start button is pressed, despite having continuity elsewhere.
• Cycles Not Ending: The dryer fails to shut off at the end of the cycle, potentially leading to overheating or fabric damage.
• Manual Dial Failure: The timer knob spins freely or feels "stripped," indicating the internal plastic gears have failed.
• Burning Smell: Visible charring or a distinct electrical odor coming from the control console, suggesting shorted internal contacts.

Installation Tips

• Safety First: Disconnect the dryer from the 240V power source before removing the control console.
• Wire Mapping: Take a clear photograph of the existing wire connections on the old timer before removing them to ensure identical placement on the new unit.
• Knob Removal: Most timer knobs must be pulled straight off or have a small locking clip behind the dial that needs to be released.
• Terminal Transfer: Move the wires one at a time from the old timer to the new one to prevent wiring errors. Ensure each spade connector is tight and fully seated.
• Testing: Once installed, run a short "Timed Dry" cycle to verify the dial advances and the machine shuts off as expected.
