Hi there. This machine as you know willbeepwhen it BELIEVES the clothes are dry based on input it receives from the moisture sensor (2 metal bars you can see when you look inside the drum, where the lint screen goes). This circuit will short when wet clothes contact it, letting the machine know that there are still wet clothes inside. If for some reason this circuit stays open for a prolonged period of time OR there is a problem with the sensor board, part # WE04X10061 , It could misinterpret the actual condition of the moisture sensor circuit and cause this problem. I believe the beeper on this machine is wired into the sensor board. If you dont feel like replacing any parts, the machine is working fine otherwise, you can simply open the top panel by inserting a putty knife between the top and front cabinet panels, about 3 inches from each front corner, release the spring clips that hold the top panel down, swing the panel up and rearward out of your way, disconnect one of the beeper wires from the beeper and TAPE it securely so it doesnt short, close her up and problem (sort of) solved! Otherwise, you will need to use the wiring diagram you will find inside machine to test the integrity of the sensor circuit (normally open, but closed when wet finger applied to sensor bars on lint screen housing) as well as determining where the current is coming from to activate the beeper when it should not be. This can also sometimes be caused by the timer, but thats less likely in this case if the machine is otherwise working perfectly
