Hello Wmfj301, thank you for your post!

Based off what you have described your Frigidaire dryer is not operating on the timed dry cycle and works on the additional cycles. You could be experiencing an issue with the timer or wiring harness inside of the panel. This could also be a miscommunication within the electricals of the laundry center, you can clear any miscommunication by resetting the appliance. The best way to perform a reset is to disconnect power from it for at least ten minutes. Best of luck! -OOS
