I have a roper dryer that has a timer assembly part number WP8299781. I read that it can be much cheaper to replace the timer motor instead of the whole assembly. How do I find out what motor I need?

Thanks!

The motors for the timers are not sold separately. If you can provide a picture from the face and the side I might be able to send you one from my used parts box for the price of the postage. My email address is as follows Jaybird @ mtco.com . I live near Peoria, Illinois with zip code 61571 Tom Horning

Hi,

**The motors for the timers are not sold separately.**

This is correct for almost all of the time. Motor timer motors do not come separately.

Unfortunately, manufacturers no longer provide timer motors separately from the timer assemblies in most cases. When they do, they list it in the parts diagram of the model number in question.
