When replacing a timer on a tanning bed, it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully and to make sure that the replacement timer is compatible with your specific model of tanning bed. It is also important to disconnect the power supply to the tanning bed before attempting any wiring or electrical work.
As for bypassing the timer altogether, it is generally not recommended to do so. The timer is an important safety feature that helps to prevent overexposure to UV radiation, which can cause skin damage and increase the risk of skin cancer. If you are having issues with the timer or are unsure about how to properly wire it, it is best to contact a qualified technician or electrician for assistance.

Hot point dryer running very hot after replacing thermal fuse and thermostat
If your Hotpoint dryer is running very hot after you replaced the thermal fuse and thermostat, it's possible that there is an issue with the heating element. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the problem:
- Check the heating element: The heating element is responsible for heating the air inside the dryer. Over time, it can become damaged or break, which can cause the dryer to run very hot. To check the heating element, unplug the dryer and remove the back panel to access the element. Use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If there is no continuity, the heating element is faulty and will need to be replaced.
- Check the cycling thermostat: The cycling thermostat is responsible for regulating the temperature inside the dryer. If it is not functioning properly, it can cause the dryer to run too hot. Use a multimeter to test the thermostat for continuity. If there is no continuity, the thermostat is faulty and will need to be replaced.
- Check the airflow: Restricted airflow can also cause the dryer to run too hot. Make sure that the vent hose is not kinked or blocked and that the lint filter is clean. Check the outside vent hood to make sure that it is not clogged with lint or debris.
- Check the control board: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it's possible that there is a problem with the control board. This will require further diagnosis and possibly replacement of the control board.
If you are not comfortable troubleshooting or repairing the dryer yourself, it's recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified appliance repair technician.

Dryer timer doesn't advance so the dryer doesn't shut off
If your dryer timer isn't advancing and the dryer isn't shutting off, there may be a few possible causes. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can take to identify and potentially fix the problem:
Check the Timer: The timer is responsible for advancing the cycle and shutting off the dryer at the end of the cycle. If the timer is faulty, it may not be advancing properly. To check the timer, try turning it manually to see if it advances. If it doesn't, you may need to replace the timer.
Check the Timer Motor: The timer motor is what drives the timer to advance. If the motor is faulty, the timer won't advance. You can use a multimeter to test the motor for continuity. If it doesn't have continuity, you'll need to replace the motor.
Check the Cycling Thermostat: The cycling thermostat is responsible for regulating the temperature inside the dryer. If it's faulty, it may not be signaling the timer to advance. You can use a multimeter to test the thermostat for continuity. If it doesn't have continuity, you'll need to replace the thermostat.
Check the Heating Element: The heating element heats the air inside the dryer. If it's faulty, it may be causing the cycling thermostat to malfunction, which can prevent the timer from advancing. You can use a multimeter to test the heating element for continuity. If it doesn't have continuity, you'll need to replace the heating element.
Check the Moisture Sensor: Some dryers have a moisture sensor that detects when the clothes are dry and signals the timer to shut off. If the moisture sensor is faulty, it may not be signaling the timer to shut off. You can test the sensor by running the dryer with a wet load and seeing if it shuts off automatically. If it doesn't, you may need to replace the moisture sensor.
If you're not comfortable performing these troubleshooting steps yourself, it's best to call a professional appliance repair service to diagnose and fix the problem.

Where do I need to install the Drum Front Support gasket DC69-0015?
The felt items are either self adhesive or they come with a tube of contact adhesive. The drum slide clicks into place and screw down, and there is normally a cut out in the gasket that goes around them. Once you have the parts and the machine apart, it will all be clear.

F2E1 light is on but all buttons work
The F2E1 error code on a Whirlpool Cabrio dryer indicates a problem with the user interface control board. Even though the buttons on the keypad appear to work, there may be an issue with the board that is preventing the dryer from starting.
One potential solution is to try resetting the dryer by unplugging it from the power source for at least one minute, then plugging it back in and attempting to start it again. If this does not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to replace the user interface control board.
It is recommended to contact a qualified technician or the manufacturer for assistance with replacing the control board, as working with electrical components can be dangerous if not done properly.

By pressing the temperature and dryness buttons at the same time for six seconds, it should reset your dryer. You can also do this by manually unplugging the dryer if one of those buttons happens to be the button that is stuck. This can unstick the buttons and clear the error code.

Kirkland Dryer - light turns on, but the machine won't run.
There are a few possible causes for a Kirkland dryer to have a light that turns on but the machine won't run:
- Broken Belt: If the drum inside the dryer does not rotate when you turn it on, it could be a broken belt. A broken belt will prevent the drum from spinning and the motor from operating.
- Blown Fuse or Tripped Circuit Breaker: The dryer might not run if it has a blown fuse or a tripped circuit breaker. Check your electrical panel for tripped breakers or blown fuses.
- Faulty Motor: If the dryer motor has burnt out, the dryer will not be able to run. You may have noticed a burning smell or an unusual noise before the motor failed.
- Clogged or Blocked Vent: If the vent or exhaust hose is clogged or blocked, the dryer may overheat and shut down. This can also cause unusual noises.
- Defective Door Switch: If the door switch is defective, the dryer may not start, even though the light comes on.
To diagnose the problem, you may need to disassemble the dryer and inspect the belt, motor, and other components. If you're not comfortable doing this, it may be best to call a professional technician to troubleshoot and repair the dryer.

Whirlpool dryer wouldn’t start
The fan isn't spinning. The fan takes the heat from the elements and blows it into the drum. It the fan isn't drawing the air, it overheats.
Also check that the outside flaps are operating. You can even run it without the hose on to test.
