Unfortunately, the timer unit is irreparable and will have to be replaced. It doesn't matter if it advances or not because even if the timer advances there could still be a faulty contact in the timer preventing the dryer from working. The ticking sound is most probably from the timer assembly.ĭoes the cycle switch (timer) keep stepping around even though the dryer is stopped? (Watch it for 5-10 minutes to see if it advances). You could always use the "Chat with a pro" link in the link and see what they suggest as a possible cause. I am loathe to recommend purchasing either of these items until they have been tested as they may all be OK and the problem may be further into the operating circuit. It also shows the price of the replacement part kit.

Here is a link which shows how to access them. (click on the repair video icon)Īs I said it is a process of elimination, if the switch proves OK it is onto the next step which is to test the hi limit thermostat and the thermal cut off. It also shows the price of the switch replacement part. Here is a link which shows how to access the switch. If it doesn't then most likely the switch is faulty and will need to be replaced. If you get a reading on the meter, then gently move the switch actuating lever (or tap the body of the switch) to simulate "vibrations" and see if the reading on the meter holds steady. Connect the Ohmmeter test leads across the switch wires and then manually operate and hold the switch actuating lever and check for continuity. With the power totally removed from the dryer, access the switch and then disconnect it from the wiring harness. If you have access to an Ohmmeter (a function found in a DMM -Digital MultiMeter) you should be able to test the switch for continuity. I'm thinking that if it were faulty then perhaps when the machine starts the vibrations from the drum rotating might be enough cause the switch to release and to stop the machine. The door switch when operated allows the machine to run. My initial thoughts are that it may be a faulty door switch assembly. To find your problem may be a process of elimination.
