1 Answer Hello Nick, You need to check the water level switch and the water inlet valve. If your unit has a serial number beginning with 19 or lower, you will use the water level switch (AP4025680). If your serial number begins with 20 or higher, you will need water level switch (AP4024470). If the water inlet valve is the issue and your serial number is 10 or lower, you will need to order part number (AP4045669). If your serial number is 11 or higher, you will need water inlet valve (AP4024482). Read More...
Joe April 23, 2013 for Model Number Whirlpool part no is MFQ 21001595 Whirlpool Timer (Part Number: AP4024544) We purchased the timer above and installed it yesterday in our whirlpool washer. No problem with the installation and knobs appeared to go on fine and click in and out. We put the unit into a wash cycle and it appeared to start fine but on returning later, the tub was absolutely full and water was everywhere on the floor. The indicator arrow on the dial face did not appear to have moved from the initial point at the very beginning of the cycle indicator. We replaced the unit because the tub was not draining consistently and we ended up with up to 1/3 of the tub full of water at the end of a wash cycle after the spin cycle. Is there a knack to replacing that unit? It appeared to go in OK and the electrical connections went right back on. Something to do with the knobs and timer shaft perhaps? thx
1 Answer Hello Joe. It sounds like this is a water issue, not the timer. If you can stop the water from entering the machine by turning off the timer or unplugging the unit, you will need to look for a bad pressure hose or replace the pressure switch. If the only way to shut off the water is at the shut off for the water hoses, you will need to replace the water valve in the unit. Read More...
Kim F. November 11, 2012 for Model Number PAV3240AWW I am getting a lot of noise from the timer area. The sound it is making is like that of a bearing going bad. The wash stopped in mid-cycle and I could not get it to work again. I then started smelling hot wires and/or switch. Since everythhing seems to be confined to the timer, I was going to just replace it. Am I on the right track? Second.. how does the spin nob come off of the timer shaft? Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Kim, Although you could open the unit and smell of the timer to ensure this is where the smell is originating, I still think you have the right idea and changing the timer WP21001595 will most likely correct the issue. Read More...
Jaime I. March 30, 2012 for Model Number LNC6764A71 Hello, I bought this timer from you. Still I have the same problem. My admiral washer machine stopped at mid cycle and does not spin, drain or continue. MAIN knob will not ADVANCE. I emptied, and I checked the following: 1) Lid switch and works fine. It clicks,I took it out and check continuity and it is good. 2)The drain pump is good. I took it off and it is clean an rotates fine 3) Belt is fine.4) All pulleys rotate freely manually from underneath, after taking belt off. 5) ordered a new timer and belt and installed them. Same problem: Main Knob will not advance. I can hear a low sound that you always hear when it would be getting ready to advance to next step on cycle but it never advances. 6) Water supply is fine and fills up ok. 7) When I spin main pulley manually from underneath without a belt, the agitator moves fine. Machine will not spin or rinse or drain even if I try to move main knob manually to do these. I need advise what to do next. Thank you very much
1 Answer HI Jamie. Look at the back of the control panel and see if the advance to rinse switch yellow with red stripe wire and the lt. blue wires can be jumped together momentarily to see if this works now.These 2-wires connect to the timer connector directly.Speed switch part # 21001687. Remove the belt. Start the unit directly ihn spin and see if it will spin now... Does the motor reverse the rotation ? If so then you know that the timer is internally reversing voltage and the motor is good. Make sure the motor glides are not needing lightly greased so the motor can slide from one position to the other. If the motor just hums then more then likely its timer is ok and the motor needs replaced part # WP21001950. Lift the unit up and support it. When you rotate the main pulley one way you will hear the agitator clicking as if in agitation. Rotate it another way and then the pulley rotates up against the clutch and releases a break lining allowing the inner basket to spin. If it does then your inner basket is free of balled up clothes in between the inner /outer basket and the clutch and brake are releasing. Let us know if any of this helped. Thank You. Read More...
