This hi-limit thermostat acts as a safety mechanism that keeps the dryer from overheating. With this thermostat, a dryer's heating element will cut out if the internal temperature reaches 260 degrees Fahrenheit. The element will kick back in when the temperature drops to 190 degrees Fahrenheit - the differential of 70 degrees.

Hello, My dryer is running fine, plenty of heat, but the timer is not moving and shutting off on the auto dry function. I haven't tried it on time dry or cotton settings yet. I am assuming it is the timer, which is fairly expensive. Is there any other part that may be leading to this problem other than the timer? I did have the dryer apart this summer to replace the belt. While it was open I cleaned it thoroughly. Vent pipe is clear and I regularly clean the vent screen. Thanks Bob

Hello Robert, Thank you for the question. We suggest testing the Timer Resistor with a multimeter before replacing the Timer Switch. The resistance of the resistor should be 4500 ohms. We hope this helps!
