Animagus is on a distinguished road
Default Maytag Model #MDE3000a2W heat on one setting only

My dryer stopped drying on the normal dry cycle - spins fine just no heat. I turn the nob further to the cycle with cool down and it drys fine (albeit a slower dry time) any ideas?

Please check your model# again, I can't get any info on that one.

Default Ooops!

Your right I did have an error in that Model number, it should be: MDE3000AZW (z and 2 look somewhat the same when reading from a distance upside down ;-)

I also openned the console and examined the "dial assembly" it showed significant corrosion on on of the four contacts - I filed (gently) both contacts and it seems to have fixed the problem - For Now. That part had these various numbers on it: Model M460-G, Maytag 6 3097270, V13-94990 8280A4 - I'm guessing this will have to be replaced sometime down the way.

Thanks,

Glad you found the problem and fixed it for now.

Here's the parts diagram for your model:
MDE3000AZW
Diagram#3 Part location#7 is your timer when ever you need to order it.

Simple, just click this link:
MDE3000AZW
Then look for Diagram#3 on the far left side, then once you click diagram#3 Look for Part location#7 on the parts diagram.
