GE Washer Timer (WH45X22698)

The GE Washer Timer controls the sequence and duration of each cycle in your washing machine, signaling when the washer should fill, agitate, drain, and spin. It works by advancing through programmed steps, sending electrical signals to the motor, water valve, and other components to keep the wash cycle running in the correct order.

A GE washer timer can fail from normal electrical wear, burned contacts, or moisture exposure that corrodes the internal components over time. When the timer stops advancing properly or loses a contact, the washer may get stuck in one cycle, skip steps entirely, or refuse to start at all.

These symptoms may point to a faulty timer in your washer:

- Washer stops mid-cycle and will not continue on its own

- Machine gets stuck in one stage such as fill, agitate, or spin

- Washer does not start when the dial is turned and the cycle is selected

- Cycle takes much longer than normal to complete

- Washer skips one or more steps in the wash cycle

- Timer dial feels loose, spins freely, or does not click into position

- Washer runs continuously without advancing to the next stage
