I replaced the timer and the regular wash cycle worked until the end. In the end, a small amount of water was added, but it was not released.

I tried to run the same regular was cycle again and now it fills with water, skips the agitation cycle and then releases the water.

Should I try replacing the circuit board? Or something else? Thank you for your time. I appreciate ANY guidance you might have.

What is the original problem that prompted you to replace the timer?

Original problems:

If I ran the regular wash cycle, the washer fills with water to the appropriate level, but did not engage the agitation cycle. However, I was able to advance the cycle and let the water drain from the washer properly.

If I ran the rinse portion of the quick wash cycle, the washer fills with water to the appropriate level, agitates, and engages the drain cycle.

I think all of the functions work on the washer based on my responses above, but there is obviously some communication issues since the agitation appears to work in some cycles but not others.

I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP!!!!

It isn't common, BUT it is possible to get a bad timer, right out of the box. The first thing I would check is the connector(s) on the timer. Make sure there are no burnt terminals. also make sure everything in the connector lines up correctly, and the connections are secure.

Thanks. I will take off the timer again, look it over and re-install.

Just so I have an idea, what are potential symptoms of a bad circuit board? Just curious if it is worth trying to replace that part as well?
