How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer before removing the control console.
- Identify timer type: Determine if your Stoves dryer uses a mechanical timer or electronic control.
- Mechanical timer: Listen for a faint ticking during operation. If silent and the knob never moves, the timer motor may be failed. Test for power at the timer motor terminals and replace the timer if faulty.
- Electronic control: If the display time does not count down, the control board may be defective. Try a power reset; if no change, board replacement is likely required.
- Check wiring: Inspect harness connections to the timer or control board for loose or burnt terminals.
