Hello Tiffany,
the timer is activating the "end of cycle buzzer" in the wash cycle, this would be caused by a problem in the timer, part WP3951702, or since the washer/timer is still working ok, you can access the buzzer in the control panel and disconnect and isolate the wires to it.

Vern,

Check to make sure that there is nothing in the drain pump that would cause the motor to not turn properly and if this checks ok then the issue will most likely be a faulty timer.

Emma,

The knob should fit on this timer regardless of the age as they are made the same as previously. If the knob is coming off then it is possible that the knob is damaged and would need to be replaced. If the shaft is widened out this could be the case.

Emma, Most likely, you didn't lock the knob in place. You'll need to remove power to the washer, flip the control panel up and over so you can access the back of the new timer. In the opening in the back of the timer you should see a "D" shaped, half round plastic "button" , align and place the timer knob onto the forked timer shaft on the front of the timer and hold it in place. use a small bladed tool and push in on the "D" shaped button until it stops on it's own. Then push and pull the timer knob several times to make sure the knob is locked on and in place. The video attached to part number WP3951702 may also be helpful. Thanks,

Emma, not all timers look the same, the principles are similar when replacing the parts though.

Emma,

You would still hear a clicking noise when rotating the timer and it could be that the motor on the timer has failed causing it to not advance. You could also have contacts inside the timer that are sticking.
