I have now replaced the Timer and the control switch on the Maytag Dryer model LDE712 and the problem still exists. The dryer will not shut off automatically, I have to open the door to make it stop.
Any more suggestions on what part it might be???:confused:

My problem which exhibited same issues as this thread, was that the linkage between the control switch and the chime actuator kept breaking. It looks like an extended paper clip. I've replaced that part for several years and it fixed problem.

NOW the piece that connected to the "linkage" on the control switch is broken and not sure if I need to replace the entire control switch.

Also if there is something I can do to prevent the linkage from breaking often I'd appreciate hearing about it. Thought perhaps the solenoid needed lubricant but then thought it would affect the magnetic pull.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
