Default Timer Problem?
Brand: Amana
Model Number: LW8203W2
Age: 5 - 10 years

My Amana dryer recently had its motor replaced. Before motor replacement when the timer was set on 60 minutes, the dryer would run down until zero and shut off with the clothes completely dry. Now the timer runs down from 60 to 30 and stops. Clothes will dry in the interval from 60 to 30 but if you set the timer on 30 or restart the dyer at 30, it tumbles but clothes do not dry. Could this problem be related to the motor replacement (such as a wire not being connected properly) , is it a timer problem, or something related to the heating elements? There is no lint build up in the dryer nor it exhaust line. Thanks for any insight you can provide!

Wouldn't you know it - I gave the washing machine model number vice the dryer! The correct model is Amana LE8217W2. Same problem though!
