WHIRLPOOL CORP TIMER WP3976568

The Dryer Timer Assembly controls the electrical components of the appliance and duration of its drying cycles. If any of the contacts in your appliance’s timer have burned out, or if the motor inside the unit shorted out and the timer is no longer functioning, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. This assembly does not include the timer knob, but you can purchase it separately based on your model number. Remove the back access panel at the top of the dryer to access this part. Installing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the dryer and novice repair experience. You must unplug the dryer or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before installing this part.
