    Replacing timer on direct drive Whirlpool washer

    I would say yes to that question You can wait and see. If it’s the timer, you know soon enough. While I’ve never done myself ..it may be possible to take timer apart and clean contacts. It’s why I think if you decide to swap out timer..don't throw out old one. They ain’t makin more of them.

    Replacing timer on direct drive Whirlpool washer

    A while back I had problems with my DD washer. I knew my neutral drain was acting up on occasion. I still suspected the timer because of the irregular cycles, my situation made it difficult to diagnose which one was the problem. Long story short, it turned out that my timer and neutral drain...

    Replacing timer on direct drive Whirlpool washer

    Ryne It may not be the timer, you could have a neutral drain pak waring? This can cause one to assume it’s a timer issue. It could be one or the other. Let’s see what others here think.
