Although my dryer was actually bought in 1977, I have had very few problems until now. It continues to run until I push the knob to off. The knob stays right where it starts and never moves. It does heat and my clothes are drying. I set a manual timer to remind me to turn it off. It is a Kenmore Large Capacity Dryer Model Series 66801-76801. I was told it is the timer.....is it possible to get this part and if so how much is it?
Reading the problems that others are having with newer models I feel like I hate to replace the old with new! Thank you.:)

Sounds like the timer is bad. your model# is not correct, please re-check it, Its possible that the timer is still available!!!!:) PLEASE be CAREFUL with the dryer with the timer not advancing, If you fall asleep with it going, BAD things could happen!!!!!!!!

We would be able to give you an estimate on the part, but the model # you gave is not complete. Tom ApplianceEducator.com
