Whirlpool Dryer Timer W10846428, Replaces W10634750

W10846428 is a genuine Whirlpool dryer cycle timer used on select Whirlpool and Kenmore electric and gas dryers. It replaces discontinued Whirlpool part number W10634750. The timer mounts behind the control panel and sequences electrical power through the selected timed cycle, advancing the dryer through heating, cooling and tumbling stages according to the selected setting.

Is This the Right Part?

Confirm the complete dryer model and revision before ordering. The timer knob is a separate component unless the selected variant specifically states that it is included.

Common Symptoms

• Timer not advancing through the cycle
• Cycle not ending — dryer runs continuously
• Dryer stopping at the wrong point in the cycle
• Selected cycle not starting
• No heat during part of a timed cycle
• Intermittent or erratic dryer operation
• Dryer continuing to run past the selected time

Check Before Replacing

• The timer does not directly sense or regulate drum temperature — temperature is controlled by thermostats, sensors and the heating system
• A damaged timer knob or shaft can prevent the timer from advancing without the timer itself being faulty
• An open thermal fuse will cut power to the dryer and may appear as a timer or cycle problem
• A failed push-to-start switch, door switch or motor can produce symptoms similar to a timer fault
• Verify the electrical supply voltage is correct before replacing the timer

Installation Notes

1. Disconnect electrical power before opening the control console or handling timer wiring.
2. Photograph the wiring harness and terminal positions before disconnecting any wires.
3. Compare the new timer with the original — confirm the terminal layout, shaft configuration and mounting points match.
4. Transfer the timer knob from the old timer if it is compatible, or order the correct knob separately.
5. Reconnect all wiring harnesses and restore power.
6. Test the dryer through a complete timed cycle and confirm the timer advances correctly.

Use a qualified technician when diagnosis or installation is outside your experience.
