Dryer Repair

I suspect someone bypassed the slide mechanism to save money. How is that possible? Dryer keeps running and won't shut off unless unplugged. It's a gas dryer and was set to a 30 minute cycle. The dryer is 6 month's old purchased new from AJ Madison out of NY.

Hi,

The wire to the timer motor may have been removed or you just have a bad timer.

how could the wire to the timer be removed, it's under a security lock box I believe? Changed timer but same problem
