dryer cycle not turning off

:slight_smile: Kenmore 80 series dryer timer will not turn off. Dryer heats fine. I have to manually turn cycle timer off for dryer to turn off. Any help for troubleshooting would be great. Thanks

Kenmore 110.97283100 Dryer runs fine, just wonโ€™t shut off at end of cycle. Have to open the door and leave it open to shut it off. Donโ€™t have to hit start button to start, just shut door on dryer.

hi Minter

Can you give us a little more detail.

  1. Does the timer advance at all?

  2. Does the failure to turn off occur in the timed cycle as well as the automatic cycles?

  3. When you manually advance the timer to the end, does the machine turn off or do you have to do something like open the door?

I dont have to advance the timer, but I have to open the door and leave it open
