Got a dryer that won't heat, and you think the timer is bad? Why not try to fix it for a few pennies?
It's a long video, but it shows you everything start to finish on figuring out if the timer is really bad, and how to fix it. Works for Whirlpool, Kenmore, Amana, Estate, Roper, and many other sub-brands.
The fix works for the following (but not limited to) part #s:
W10186032 Dryer Timer
W10185972 Dryer Timer
W10185988 Dryer Timer
W10185970 Dryer Timer
W10642928 Dryer Timer
W10185976 Dryer Timer
...and many others that look similar!
This fix may not always work, but I've found it to work rather well and should get you a few more months if not more before it inevitably dies. Newer revisions of these timers seem to be longer lasting. If you need to order one, Appliance Parts Pros has a good model checker to ensure you get the exact timer, as many of these types need the exact-matched number, despite many looking similar.
