Norman W Bismarck , ND May 18, 2020 Appliance: Kenmore Washer 11023832100 Worn out contact in the timer not allowing it to spin/ The washer would work fine except it wouldn't spin unless you opened the lid and waited a split second for it to stop. You would hear a bang, then when you closed the lid, it would spin. Since it made that bang noise, I thought the transmission was going bad, so I replaced that. Nope, still the same. So, after a little more research, I found out that the motor has to come to a complete stop for the transmission to go into spin mode. After pulling out the timer and inspecting it, I noticed that one of the contacts wasn't opening hardly at all and it was burnt looking. It wasn't allowing the motor enough time to stop, so it wouldn't shift into spin mode. Replaced the timer and it works like new again. Plus, since I put in a new transmission, it's quieter too! Replacing the timer is about as simple as it gets. Watch the video and you will see what I mean. All you need is a 1/4" nut driver and a Phillips screwdriver. Took less than 5 minutes.
