Customer Questions and Answers for Timer by Whirlpool

This timer controls the length and sequence of your appliance's operating cycles. Replacing a worn or stuck timer restores proper advancement so the machine starts, runs through each stage, and shuts off when it should.

• Advances the cycle automatically through each stage
• Sends power to components at the correct time
• Helps ensure the unit starts and stops on schedule
• Helps when the cycle won't advance, stops mid-cycle, runs too long/never shuts off, or only works on one setting

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the timer behind the control panel/console
• Transfer wires one at a time from the old timer to the new, matching positions
• Secure the timer with mounting screws; align the shaft with the dial/knob as applicable and test operation
