Part D517560 Dryer Timer
Purpose
Manages drying cycle duration and heat sequencing.
Details
The D517560 is a genuine OEM 4-cycle timer assembly specifically engineered for Speed Queen and Alliance Laundry Systems dryers. This mechanical control component acts as the "scheduling center" for the appliance, precisely managing the length of the drying cycles to ensure laundry is neither under-dried nor damaged by excessive heat. It operates by rotating internal cams that open and close electrical contacts, which in turn activate the motor, heating elements, and cool-down phases. If the timer's internal motor fails or its contacts become charred, the dryer may refuse to start, heat continuously without stopping, or fail to advance through the selected cycle. Replacing a faulty timer restores automated cycle control and prevents energy waste from over-drying.
