Will the timer run a complete cycle in the other settings? Will it complete the cycle if you turn it a bit past thirty minutes manually? Whirlpool WP3976576 Timer - AppliancePartsPros.com

Whirlpool WP3976576 Timer - AppliancePartsPros.com Yes the dryer will complete the cycle but the knob won't go past 30 minutes.

Sounds like a timer replacement will solve your issue. Whirlpool WP3976576 Timer - AppliancePartsPros.com
