Howdy, I have an older Maytag Dryer (Model DE 406). It heats up and works well, but the timer has stopped functioning. Are the timers still available? Is there anything I can try to get it to work again?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Dan, could the timer motor have failed? If I had a dollar for every time that has happened to me.... A replacement motor should be reasonably available still.
That’s kind of what I was thinking. I just wanted to make it wasn’t something like a fuse.
What are the symptoms/behaviors, specifically?
I can set it for a time dry, and it turns on and heats up - does everything a dryer is supposed to do - but the timer doesn't advance, so I have to use a kitchen timer.
That sure sounds like the timer motor is gone to me, Dan.
A burnt out timer motor it is! 
Dan, do you have a source for a replacement? If not, please send me an email or PM on Facebook. I've learned a LOT about how to swap timer motors over the years ... LOL I know I have a spare Maytag washer timer motor, but no dryer timer motors.
