Damn things are a hundred bucks typically. This one's discontinued
even.



It depends. On my Maytag, the timer only runs while the gas is on.
So a failure in that circuit can look like a dead timer.

Oops! Now I see you say it's an electric dryer. :-)

It still might only run when the dryer's hot, though, so have a look
at the schematic.


I failed to mention it's working and drying clothes fine.
