Cool Dryer timer that won't stop
Brand: Kenmore
Model Number: 97551220 75512
Age: 5 - 10 years

My dryer timer continues to run after drying cycle ends. It clicks along until it reaches the next dryer setting and then starts to run again. I put in a new timer assembly but that only provides a quieter clicking vs. the old loud clicking timer. I want to be able to shut the dryer off without unplugging it every time or leaving the door open . HELP!

Your push to start switch may be arced together.

Check the switch with an ohm meter.
