I actually had another switch to try and of course that was not it. I read that the relay next to it may be the problem and since it was so cheap, I tried it. Still no luck. Could this be the timer causing my problem? I found that reversing the wores on the switch made the dryer turn on when I turned the timer knob, but it eventually stops again.......Help??

Is there much chance that there would be anything else off of this board that would have caused this? I hate to buy a new board only to have it go out again or to then have to replace something else. Thanks........ Jim
