Admiral Washer Control Board

The Control Timer is an OEM replacement part specific to Whirlpool washers. It is the electronic component responsible for governing the sequence and duration of wash cycles. Located inside the control console, the timer works with the control dial to initiate various wash/rinse phases based on the selected settings.

Causes for timer failure may include water exposure corroding electrical circuits or repeated rapid switching wearing out internal switches.

Symptoms of a faulty control timer include:

• Inability to advance through complete cycles
• Random operation of rinse or spin functions
• Premature termination of cycles before finishing
• Failure to respond when turning the cycle selector

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This timer is the electromechanical control that sequences wash/dry cycles and timed functions. It replaces a failed cycle timer so the appliance can advance through settings and control timed operations reliably. What it does:

• Rotates through timed cycles and engages switch contacts to power motors, heaters, and valves in sequence
• Restores timed control when the original timer fails to advance or get stuck
• Common symptom: appliance does not advance through cycles or stays on a single cycle
• Common symptom: selector changes have no effect or certain functions do not receive power

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock
• Handle electrical connectors gently and note wire locations or take a photo before disconnecting
• Verify this part number matches the service diagram for your exact model before installation

This replacement timer controls the sequence and duration of your washer's cycles, helping the machine advance smoothly through fill, wash, rinse, drain, and spin. Replacing a failing timer can restore consistent cycle progress and dependable operation.

• Controls timing and sequencing for fill, agitate, drain, and spin operations
• Switches power to the motor, pump, and water valves as each step advances
• Advances the cycle knob/dial through each phase
• Can also help with skipping rinse/spin or a dial that's hard to turn

What's included: 1 timer assembly Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove the console/panel; pull off the knob and dial as needed to access the timer
• Transfer wires one at a time from the old timer to the new; mount and secure the timer
• Reassemble, restore power, and run a short cycle to verify operation
