Bill for Model Number LEQ9508PW1 Following up on the timer question with the BY terminal not on the replacement timer. Current timer appears to be a M460-G, when I did a search the 8566184 came up as the replacement part. Here is my original question: "I have an old Whirlpool and have determined that the timer is shot. The replacement part is WP8566184. When I went to install it, I noticed that my current timer has a "BY" (black/yellow) wire in the loom with the "BB" (blue/black) and "V" violet wires that I think are the 120 v circuit. The replacement part does not have a terminal for this wire. Is there a different part number that I need or can I leave this wire disconnected and use the replacement part? From what I can tell, the BY wire is a part of the "guard switch" which if this is a ground could be grounded via a different source."
Answer Bill, The BY should not be in the same circuit as the BB. The BY should be on the W and it goes to the guard switch and the W goes to the Drive motor. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, January 31, 2024
