Whirlpool Dryer Electronics

Dryer Repair

Sorry, I’m out of town so don’t have the exact model number.

I recently replaced the front panel electronics on my dryer with this part: http://www.appliancepartspros.com/whirlpool-cntrl-elec-8558753-ap3775978.html

Now, however, I’m having trouble with the controls. Occasionally, the dryer won’t power on unless I play with the controls for a few minutes. Then in most of the cycles, the temperature setting will continually cycle through while the dryer is running as if the button is stuck down. I can occasionally get it to stop if I switch to a new cycle setting or unplug the dryer and start over - but definitely no clear connection between what I do and its behavior. Stumped as to what I can do to fix it. Was the new part bad?

Really need a model number.

Was the new part bad?
Could be the tech sheet may help confirm this.
Also it may not.

Here are your parts

See the attachment for the tech sheet.

Sounds like a problem with the user interface (item 19 in section 01).

Could also be aproblem with the control boarde (item 57 in section 02) but the user interface is more likely.

Try the button tests in the diagnostics.

Below is a link to a manual.
Although not an exact match to your unit it should be close.
