The timer, the control board, which is behind the control panel, or a bad motor switch. All the calls I run everyday, I have not had that experience on that model. But, Whirlpool has the same sort of set up on some of there dryers, and it usually is the control board. The part # is 37001286. Not an easy diagnosis.
