Details
This is the genuine OEM timer assembly for Whirlpool-family dryers. It sequences power to the heater, motor, and controls over time, enabling the dryer to move through its cycles (heating, drying, and cool down). Symptoms of failure include cycles not advancing, no power to the heater or motor, or a timer knob that does not turn. Replacing this part restores reliable cycle control.
