Question Heats for 10 min then cools without timer progressing
Brand: Whirlpool
Model Number: LGR5620KQ1
Age: 1 - 4 years

timed cycle will run normally, all auto cycles heat immediately then cool down after 10 min, while timer never budges (will run forever if you let it) and will take clothes 2 hours + to dry at this rate. All ventilation is good and clear, the tubes are all straight and clean. Have already tried replacing the cycle thermostat after reading other peoples questions, would love to hear other opinions before ordering more parts thank you.

It could be a problem with the timer.

Check to see where you are loosing power.

Does the igniter still glow?

Here is a link to your dryer model LGR5620KQ1.
