My friend an i have a
bet on this ok
will it mess up the timer if you turn it counter clock wise to diff. cycles like tumble press then when it goes off turn it then lets say to heavy counter clock wise to that setting ? who is right either way or it has to be turned clock wise !? rember this is a bet !!!!!!!
Its always recomended that you turn clockwise on a timer that only goes that way but if it moves c/wise or a/clockwise with no effort then it was desighned to do this hope this helps

sounds like a bad timer stuck somewhere in the cycle, have u notice the timer knob advancing at all? Also the cycling thermostat or moister sensor, if bad may not detect the dryness properly and therefor not shut unit down.
Grandson just had this problem with our dryer. he was setting the timer by turning it counter clock wise, all he got was a buzz. When it set it clock wise it worked find.
I know this is a simple fit but worked or him

Need model number! Do a google search for a manual (just search by model number). Repair parts and some troubleshooting help at: http://www.repairclinic.com/
Check to see if the unit will heat up in the time dry. if the heater does not come on in the time dry cycle, then you will need to change the thermol fuse on the back of hte dryer.
Could be that the belt has broken and triped the belt safty switch. If you reach into the dryer and rotate the drum in a clock wise rotation and it moves extreamly freely. It is probably the belt.
Some dryers have a "press guard" setting. This willkeep the dryer tumbling with no heat at the end of the cycle. Usually you can select it on or off and in some cases can set the time. see if you have this feature.
Try to turn the drum inside with no clothes in it, does it turn freely both ways?
Then as someone is holding the start button, hold the door switch
button, then try to turn the drum counter-clock wise, and see if it
will start turning on its own.
If it does start turning, then the motor is more than likely the problem.
If it dosen't then the timer is more than likely the problem.
