My dryer wasn't heating or running properly so I checked the high temp cutoff it was open, So I replaced the high temp cut out and the operating thermostat. I got the heat back but the timer wouldn't advance in any mode (timed or autosense) I replaced the timer and still no advance, It heats and dries perfectly but no joy on the timer I checked voltage with the dryer running and got 236 volts across the timer terminals. Anyone ever run into this?

Here are your parts Parts for Roper RED4440VQ1 Dryer - AppliancePartsPros.comSee the attachment for the wiring diagram Since you get about 240 volts across the timer motor and it does not advance I would say that you have received a defective timer. Also I would replace the hi-limit thermostat. It should have prevented the hi-limit cutoff from blowing. Also I would check the heating coil to be sure that it is not grounded which is the most common cause of hi-limit thermostat and cutoff problems. Unplug the unit and both wires from the heater. Measure the heater, should be in the 8 to 12 ohm range. Then measure from each side of the heater to it's case, both should be infinite ohms. If not the heater is grounded and should be replaced |
