I have a Maytag washer. Purchased in 1995. Model #LAT9205AAM. The washer will begin a wash cycle and stop @ rinse. The rinse, spin and all other instances of the cycle are skipped. Sometimes it will complete a final rinse. I can get it to start intermittently by applying pressure on the knob to the side and pulling outward. Is this an issue with the timer? If so, how do I remove the timer?

I think this is the timer and I would try replacing it as this is a very good washer and you should try to keep it going as long as you can.

I don't have this model in front of me, but I think if you will open up the console by taking out the screws in the top you can access the timer. First remove the timer know by prying off the circular cover and taking off a retainer clip.

You will then see how the timer is attached with screws. Be sure and note how all the wiring hooks up before removing any of them.

Good luck, hope a new timer fixes things.
