WP3398193 Whirlpool Dryer Timer

Dryer Timer Overview:

Whirlpool products encompass brands such as Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral, and also produce items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. When dealing with an electric dryer, should the timer function correctly in the timed dry cycle but not in the automatic moisture sensing cycle, it is advisable to disconnect the dryer and use a multimeter to verify the continuity of the resistor. The orange wire links the resistor to the timer. If the multimeter shows infinite resistance, the resistor (part number 279872) needs replacing. Should the problem persist with the moisture sensing cycle after changing the resistor, it may be necessary to replace timer WP3398193.

The timer, identified by part number WP3398193, is a key component for dryers.

Timer WP3398193 manages the electrical functions and sets the length of the drying cycles.

This part also works as a replacement for numbers 3398193, 1148, and PS11741498.
