Kenmore Washer 110.26632501 (11026632501, 110 26632501) Timer will not advance

This electromechanical timer controls the sequence and duration of cycles in a laundry appliance, advancing through settings and switching internal contacts. Replacing a worn timer restores reliable cycle advancement and consistent operation.

• Coordinates stages like start, run, and completion of each selected cycle
• Common symptoms include cycle not advancing, stopping mid-cycle, or running too long
• Some settings knob may not turn or advance smoothly

• Disconnect power before service; electrical components can hold live voltage
• Access the control console, remove the dial/knob and retaining hardware to free the timer
• Transfer wires one at a time to matching terminals to avoid miswiring; take a photo before removal
• Secure the new timer, reinstall the dial/knob, reassemble the console, and test a full cycle
