    dryer won't start

    Model Number: RED4640YQ0
    Brand: Roper
    Age: 1-5 years

    I've replaced the door switch, push start switch, all the thermostats, the fuse, and the motor. Still my dryer will not start...what could it be? the timer? that's the only thing I haven't replaced. Please give me some advice...

    Yes, a bad timer can cause the dryer not to start. An easy test you can do is unplug the dryer and remove the timer and shake it, if you hear something rattling around inside the timer then the timer is bad. Or if you have a multi-meter you can use the timer chart on the schematic on dryer to do a continuity test. Let us know what you find.

    This is the timer for your model dryer:

    Timer - Part # PD00007554 (mfg # W10436308)
