comment How can I replace my old dimmer switch?
You are assuming that the colors are correct (black-hot, white-neutral). Bad assumption since the switch was improperly wired. He should check which set of wires is hot using a non-contact tester. If the switch is breaking the neutral, then your answer is correct. But I would insist that he find out first. Also, on a hot lamp with a remote switch, you need to mark the white wire with black tape to show it is really a hot line.

Looked quickly for a diagram, but found none on line. It's a puzzlement.

This Honeywell programmable timer unit seems to be able to be installed without a neutral line.

comment What hinges should I use for my overlay cabinet doors?
On an overlay hinge, the thickness of your door is immaterial. What matters is how much it overhangs the frame opening. 3/8 sound like you are looking at inset hinges which are not correct. Thise are used with doors that are partially recessed into the frame.
