11065202311 Kenmore Dryer - Instructions

Replaced with new part

Remove all plugs and connectors off of the old timer and reinstalled and mounted the new timer

Replacing the timer fixed this problem. In the center of the timer there is a socket that was hard for me to remove. I had to use a small standard screw driver to push down the middle center plastic piece while someone else was gently pulling on the socket.

I ordered a new lint screen to replace the old. I used the part #. They only had "similar" products, not one exactly like mine. When the new part arrived, I had to take IT apart and use part of the new with part of the old, to get a working lint screen. I was able to do it only because of my internal sense of mechanics...and I am proud to say I am a woman!

Very easy, takes 5 minutes of your time. Actually I replaced my stop-start switch and also the timer. First make sure that you unplug the dryer. Using a 1/4" nutdriver unscrew the nuts holding on the back plate, once that is accomplished unscrew the two nuts that holds the switch and take care to unplug the wires on the switch and plug them onto the new switch, bolt the switch back on and replace back plate, and plug in power and presto you are back in business. The most important thing to keep in mind is when you take a wire off the terminal on the bad part that you swap it to the new one and keep doing that till you have them all switched to the new part. I had to pay a service tech $75 to tell me what was wrong with the dryer, ordered part and it came in 2 days. They wanted to charge me $275 to replace the part and it only took me 5 minutes to replace the part.
