GE Washer repair/ Possible Switch

My washer’s functions are working properly but the switch is setting still and will not forward itself. I am guessing that the switch is burnt up but I am not sure.
How can I be sure that is the problem and what is the switch called?
Thanks!

It’s called the timer and is likely to be the problem.
