Pokey Joe March 20, 2022 for Model Number LA5580XSW2 I have managed to unscrew the timer knob but I don't know what to do next to remove the old timer. Since there is no repair video, is there a repair step by step or somesuch? Thanks.
1 Answer Pokey Joe, with the power cord unplugged, there will be a screw at each of the bottom corners of the endcaps that would need to be removed. This will allow the front panel of the console to pull forward and lift up once the timer screws are removed. With it released from the locked position, there will be two screws where the timer knob would mount that would need to be removed so that the timer can be pulled out with the console panel lifted up. The wire harness would be switched to the new timer and the timer mounted into position. Read More...
Pokey Joe March 05, 2022 for Model Number WP3946430 This is for a 1988 Whirlpool washer. I have yet to find a video that shows me how to get the timer knob off for my model so I can install the new timer. I am leery of just pulling on the knob.
1 Answer Hello Pokey Joe, The timer listed has a screw-on knob. You will need to turn it counterclockwise to unscrew it. Read More...

Tony W. September 01, 2014 for Model Number LA5558XSW0 Hi: My washer occasionally stops mid-cycle. I'm pretty sure it's the timer. However, the original parts list shows a timer and a timer motor. But I only see a Timer in your parts list. Does this one part take the place of the original two parts: timer and motor? Thanks, Tony
1 Answer Tony, the timer motor is no longer available separate from the timer assembly part number WP3946430. Thanks. Read More...
Jrm April 09, 2014 for Model Number LA5500XSWO Whirlpool Washer Washer control advances to mid point of spin cycle, it then stops, it will finish spin cycle if it is advanced a coupla of clicks. I am wondering if the control is bad.
1 Answer JRM, When the unit stops if you are immediately clicking the timer a couple of clicks and it restarts then the timer would be the issue. If not then you will want to pull the inner tub and check for something being caught between the tubs causing drag and causing motor to overheat. Read More...
Mac February 06, 2014 for Model Number Whirlpool Washer Model No. LA5550XTWO When set to wash with hot water, only cold water enters the tub.

Blue January 12, 2014 for Model Number LA5580XTW1 My washing machine (model #LA5580XTW1) will not empty or spin dry in the permanent press and gentle cycles, only in the regular cycle. Could this be the Timer (I believe it's part # AP3099903)?
1 Answer Hello Blue. it could be the timer, or the motor slow speed is bad and the motor will need to be replaced. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
