Bad First Part

The first part I received was used and didn't work. The part was easy to install though.

This part is not difficult to install once you discover how to open the top panel. Most of my time was spent searching youtube to find out how to open the top panel. Nearly all videos say to unscrew the side caps. My washer has no side caps. The top panel must be pried up with a putty knife if you have no screws on the sides. I am not handy and have never done any washer maintenance before.

It had a universal fit. So it went in very easily. The part arrived with the flanges used to secure it (snap on) were broken off. I had to make do, used Gorilla glue

Installing this time was very easy. I wasn't sure hot to get the knobs off without fear of breaking something. Thank God for the internet.

Washer timer doesn't work
April 05, 2018

This is exactly the same as the timer I took off of my washing machine, which worked fine for more than 10 years. Unfortunately, the new one works the same as the old one, which is NOT. Washer will not advance into spin no matter what.

The hardest part was getting the back off the washer. The installation of the actual part took about 30 seconds.

The timer was easy to install and works great!
March 12, 2018

The biggest problem we had was getting the top off of our washer. There were no screws on the end to remove so that it would tilt back. Finally found a video that showed putting a putting knife under the front edge and popping it up (spring clips were holding it in place). Watching a video was extremely helpful in removing and replacing the knob. I would suggest finding one for your washer model. My washer now works great!
