It wont advance in any cycle? Does it make a difference if its in timed dry or auto-dry?

It doesnt make a difference

With a meter check the voltage to the timer motor. If none, you will need to trace out the wiring. Probably a missing common ground, only external wire that could cause problem.
Also, consider your new timer is bad, rotate timer a few times and spray some non-residue contact cleaner inside, might just fix it, more convenient than sending it back.

I am having the same issue with my Maytag Dependable Care Plus dryer. Replaced the Timer and still doesn't work. Have a wiring diagram, but now am concerned that it may be something internal (not in the control panel)? Maybe another wire disconnected or something? Model: LDE9304ACM

Sometimes when you push in a connector, one or more pins may not make contact, just push in on the pins for the timer motor. If ok, I once found a spade terminal that didn't crimp a wire. To find this I had to do point to point continuity checks with ohm meter, took me two hrs. to find,uhgg!*

Ok, so this is what I've tried so far.

Checked the continuity doing the following...

Motor circuit:
1. Removed yellow wire from timer, tested that terminal to terminal with grey wire - read 0 ohms - Good!

Heating Circuit:
1. Removed black wire from timer, tested that terminal to terminal with pink wire - read 0 ohms - Good!
2. Removed black wire from timer, tested that terminal to terminal with blue wire - read 0 ohms - Good!

From what I've read, this all checks out good and shows no resistance to flow electricity.

Checked the voltage from timer by testing the two black wires to see if they carried 120 volts. No voltage detected? 0 volts?

Traced black wire back to pigtail terminal and it seems ok. What else can it be? I also double-checked all the terminals to make sure they were all on tight, they are!

The dryer works fine, heats up nicely, runs as long as we want, but just won't turn off!

Help!

Thanks again,
