Whirlpool WP208292 Timer OEM Part

The gentle cycle did work, so I figured that the cycle controller was the problem. I searched on line with the make and model # for parts and found the item with a picture that looked just like the part in my machine, so I bought it, and it came right away. Installation was simple, the hardest part was figuring out I had to pry off the cover at the center of the dial to remove the clip that held the dial onto the pin. Once that was done, it was easy to see which screws had to be taken out, and the connecting wire assembly came off easily once I pushed down the holders on the sides. The new one was essentially identical, so putting it in was just reversing the process. The washer worked perfectly, so my diagnosis was correct, and it saved buying a new machine for probably $750 to get equivalent quality.

Machine would start, fill, agitate, and rinse but when I opened the lid to empty the clothes out it was still full of water. I would have to turn the dial to the delicates spin cycle to drain the water. Replaced the timer and it is working correctly now.

Tested all connections with a multimeter. Verified continuity at all connections. Since the timer was rotating but the cycles were not engaging I decided it had to be the timer was wore out. Replaced the timer.

Replace timer

Because of our washer being 20 yo the part had been discontinued. But with the help of Robin, one of your chat pros. We were able to locate a replacement timer that would work. This all happened on a Sunday morning. Because I am a repeat customer I knew I could trust that the part would be the right part as it was. Whenever I need a part I know to go to AppliancePartsPros.com. In fact my sister just had a repairman out for her stove and was told how much it was going to cost to repair it. I sent her a link to APP and she called me last night thanking me. She was so impressed with how much money APP saved her plus how helpful and knowledgeable the your operator was.
