How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP6013450 / WP8572976 Timer

We thought it was the timer, replaced timer turned out it was lid switch 

It was an easy fix…snap and replace. When installing the knob make sure you push the black pin-looking plastic into where the knob goes.

Replaced the timer with genuine Whirlpool parts. 

Replaced timer. 

Replaced with a new part from parts pro. 

Followed video. Took less than 20 mins to fixed. It worked! 

I checked out the lid switch, which was working OK. I assumed it was then the timer, so I ordered one, and installed it. It continued to stop on the rinse & spin cycle. I then checked the connection to the motor, and found a burnt terminal on one wire. I clean the terminal on the motor and the plug, and that let it make a good connection, and we were up and running. So my advice is to check all connections first, then all switches with a multimeter. 

Via u-tube video on repairing a timer switch. Worked great.
