Sounds like you need a new timer. If you do not know anything about them you need to hire a repair person.

SOURCE: Maytag Neptune W/D (Stacked) Drying Irregularly

I have a Maytag MUG2000AWW stack drier that heats intermittently. I opened mine up tonight and found that the connector to the gas valve doesn't seem to be making contact. It's on tight, but I can push on that connector while the gas ignition heater's hot and the valve clicks on. I'm off to the store for some terminals tomorrow to improvise a replacement.

SOURCE: Problem with upper cabinent of Maytag Drying Center.

Mine did same thing within warranty. There is a motherboard problem in them that is cause by power surge during an eletrical storm. First try unplugging for 10 minutes and see if it resets. If that doesn't work, you need to have the motherboard replaced that runs the unit.

Repair man took the front off my unit and replaced entire motherboard. He stated that it was a known issue with that motherboard. I have had no problems since my motherboard was replaced 18 months ago.

It sounds like you may need a new timer. Has water or anything gotten into the timer. This could be causing a short or faulty reading in it.

I have a Maytag Neptune electric dryer model MDE5500AYW. Using sensor dry the timer says 38 minutes, it counts down to 31 min then goes to a 1 minute cooldown and shuts off.

There is a wetness sensor bar assembly inside the dryer. It looks like a flat hotdog with two metal strips on it. It is near the front of the machine and the clothes have to touch it when they are drying. If the unit is dirty, damaged or disconnected, the sensor wont tell the program to keep running and the unit shuts off. The sensor may have lint or softner on it, may have come disconnected in back. Dont disassemble the drier without unplugging the power first.

Dryer not turning off when clothes are dry (model LDE 400ACL)

Normally if you have an automatic cycle that turns off the dryer when the clothes are dry, it will do it with a special thermostat or moisture-sensing system. The thermostat tells the dryer to heat until the interior of the dryer reaches a "pre-set" temperature.
When the dryer reaches the pre-set temperature, the thermostat tells the timer to begin advancing. If there is a moisture sensor, the timer advances only if the moisture content of the clothing is low enough. The timer advances until the interior cools, then the termostat tells the timer to stop advancing, and tells the dryer to start heating again. This cycle continues until the clothes are dry. But... if the vent is clogged, the dryer may never reach the proper operating temperature, so it doesn't send the signal to the timer and the dryer continues to run indefinitely, even if the clothes are completely dry. To fix this problem, clean the vent and/or internal ductwork and make sure the vent is not compressed or kinked. If that doesn't work, then your thermostat, moisture sensor or timer could be the culprit.

Machine drys fine on timed cycles but shuts off before clothes are dry on automatic cycle.

First try cleaning the moisture sensors with rubbing alcohol, these are two silver colored strips located inside the drier just below the lint cleanout
