...and not necessarily a trouble alarm?
Just bought a new switch, which is a not-identical replacement part. Original had no buzzer, but new unit has a buzzer fed by neutral and other motor leg. Buzzer goes on and won't go off. Installed new motor and all is well, except for the buzzing. Is it safe to disconnect? I'd love to have the buzzer go off momentarily after timer finishes, but I've been without a dryer for three weeks, so that'll have to be a rainy day, cleaner clothes project.

Thanks,
Geoff.

GE part number is WE4X525, APP number is AP2042652. Part came with a disclaimer saying it was a 'general replacement timer.' Forgot to mention that original symptom was timer 'buzzing,' though there's no visible buzzer on the unit. Didn't thoroughly troubleshoot timer, so when new unit buzzed (much more loudly), I went after the centrifugal switch and the motor. Switch was still good, so I replaced the motor (drum was not rotating when start switch was pressed). New _motor_ had slightly different wiring ('T' vs. 'V'), but I went with color-matching of motor wires with my notes on original hook-up. Checked for thermostat continuity; good, drum turned, timer advanced, heat seemed good (elements were intact and connected), so _that's_ why I'm asking for certainty on whether buzzer is a trouble alarm, or just a buzzer. Do I need to look further for another problem, or just disconnect the buzzer jumper?
