SECTION 7. ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AND TESTING
TIMER
The timer is mounted to the control
shield, located inside the control panel
assembly. The timer shaft protrudes
through the control panel and provides
for the selection of the various machine
cycles available.
The timer is an incremental advance,
rotary type driven by a synchronous
motor. The timer controls and sequences
the numerous steps and functions in-
volved in each machine cycle. It accom-
plishes this by providing power to the
various electrical components through
the opening and/or closing action of timer
contacts.
A typical timer and plug connector are
illustrated in the following figure. The
timer has all the connecting points
brought out to miniature spade terminals.
These terminals are centralized and
aligned on one side ofthe timer to
form a terminal board.
The connecting wires from the wiring
harness are terminated in a compatible
connector which plugs into the timer
terminal board.
Since space is notably limited on the
timer terminal board, terminal identifica-
tion is provided by a sticker attached to
the side of the timer. When referring to
the sticker for terminal identification, the
external timer motor wires can be used
for orientation.

Another source for terminal identification
is the schematic diagram which is sup-
plied with each washer. The schematic
diagram not only identifies the terminals,
but also the plug connector terminals and
their respective wire colors.
