Holly C Minneapolis , MN March 16, 2016 Appliance: Maytag Top Loading Washer A212S Maytag Washer A212s: I have a maytag washer it wouldn't automatically progress through the wash cycle i could manually move the dial and it would complete that portion of the cycle. How to replace Timer. First I ordered just the timer motor.. That did not work, so I ordered the full timer. It worked! Both parts were very easy to replace. 2 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
