My kenmore gas dryer runs normally but after shutting off at the end
Of the cycle it slowly keeps rotating until it turns itself back on. I replaced
The timing swith. Any thoughts ?

Did you replace the entire unit, or just part of the timer? It sounds like the part that turns the timer motor off is stuck and was not replaced.

I too am having this same issue... So I should replace the timer? Is that hard to do? Is there a scematic some where that would show me how to do this myself?

This is not a problem I have fixed myself. Unfortunately the original person never reported back if my suggestion worked or not. There should be a schematic on the inside or the back, but you really do not need it to replace the timer. Unplug the drier and remove the screws holding the control panel. There should be a large plug with all the wires to the timer. Remove it and the screws holding the timer. You will need to pull the knob off and remove screws under it too. You should be able to buy a new timer at a local appliance repair, or at http://www.applainceparts.com/

Well I replaced the whole timer on my kenmore dryer and still... after it completes a cycle, the timer continues to run until the next cycle starts... What now? Any suggestions?

I am sorry you spent money following my original post, and it didn't work. I haven't looked at one of those myself for some time and forget exactly how they work. It seems to me like in the old mechanical timers, the timer motor is just controlled by one more cam. At the end of the cycle, the cam forces the lever up and the contacts apart stopping the motor. It stays off until you turn the dial to where the cam is lower. Perhaps you could have a stray wire strand of wire on the plug to the timer.If a new timer didn't fix it, somehow power is getting to it outside the timer.

I would hate to refer you to the paranormal forum.

Hey Labman.. no need to apoloize... that was a good guess... and it was pretty easy to install but when a load finishes and the dryer stops... if you put your ear up to the timer, you can here that it's still running and eventually it continues into the next cycle... I'm going to recheck all the wires for frey and such and see it there may be a short somewhere... thanks for your help
