    Default dryer not going off in auto dry or timed dry

    Model Number: MED5740TQ0
    Brand: Maytag
    Age: 1-5 years

    Maytag dryer model MED5740TQ0. The dryer started not turning off a few weeks ago. Only about 3.5 years old. It will stay on in timed dry or auto dry mode. I have cleaned out the back, vent and cleaned off the sensor strips inside of drum. The timer still ticks but does not advance in either mode when drying or not drying clothes. Do I need a new timer?
