It's probably the timer motor going haywire from the plastic gears breaking down inside which these Model 60's were known for. There's 3 new 204663 timers on Ebay at the moment. You can remove the timer motor from the timer and bench test. Dave from davesrepair.com has all of the internal gearing for these so contact him if you want to fix this yourself, which I highly recommend since the 204663 timer motor has been discontinued. Just an FYI, I have had these timer motors brand new in the bag fail right after installation, so beware of that. Old NOS timer motors with weak plastic gearing can fail immediately.

Timer motor.
When the machine would shut down I could still hear the timer advancing through the cycle. Every so often you could hear a click and you could also hear the timer motor running. To me it almost seems like a contact is bad. Sometimes the machine would do a sort of jerking motion a couple times as it was trying to make contact.

I'm late to the party here, but wowweee! Congratulations on finding such an amazing 906 set! I hope you can get the timer issues resolved quickly!
I've heard information to the contrary, but there was a company here in Canada, Turners Timer Repair, who were still willing and able to repair vintage washer timers. Last one I sent in was about 2 years ago for a tune-up on my 55 Pulsamatic timer.
