Thank you for your patience and your help in the troubleshooting!
I wonder why the timer would fail at the same time as my replacing the transmission. They don’t seem to have a relationship with each other.
Anyways, thank you thank you thank you, Eric!
Yes, that’s a little odd. If you buy the timer from APP and it doesn’t fix the problem, you may return it. Keep us posted.

The timer arrived today, so I installed it, and it behaves exactly like it did with the old timer (it makes a buzzing sound - and the motor won’t start). I will need to take the belt off and try to start it by hand so I can get some voltage measurements (in a spin cycle).
I will post the measurements after I get them.
I was really hoping that replacing the timer would fix it. It seemed to make sense, but now I am not sure what to think.
The motor is bad. The repair cost is more than the value of the washer. Going to buy a new one. Thank you for all of your help Eric. You are great and have so much knowledge -and- you are willing to help!
I really appreciate all that you did to help me determine the cause of my failure.
Thank you and hats off to you…
