Description

This timer is a direct-replacement control that advances cycle timing and sequencing for compatible appliances, restoring intended cycle progression and duration. Use it to replace a worn or non-advancing cycle timer. What it does:

• Advances and times cycles so the appliance completes selected programs for the correct duration.
• Controls sequencing between functions (start, run, end) to ensure expected operation.
• Common symptom fix: cycles that won't advance, stop mid-cycle, or run for incorrect lengths.
• Restores reliable mechanical/electrical timing when the original timer fails.

What's included: One timer assembly. Install notes:

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before starting any repair to avoid shock.
• Access typically requires removing the control panel; keep track of screws and wiring or photograph connections before disconnecting.
• Handle carefully to avoid bending shaft/gear or damaging electrical contacts.
