My Maytag stackable MLE2000AYW washer stops during the wash cyle. If you push the start button again it will continue but then it stops again. Sometimes you have to push the start button 3 or 4 time to finish washing a load of clothes. I think I need to replace the Dial Timer but want to be sure. Thanks Darrel

Hi,

The timer motor is too weak to push it past those spots that are the hardest places for it to turn...

That is why it always stops at the beginning of the next phase of the wash cycle...

Replace the timer and you will be working fine again..

Youmay be right as the timerr can cut off due to poor contacts or faulty timer action. The best you can use a good switch cleaner to wash off dirt( with the main power OFF) , use a brush to clean , a good air jet to blown out dirt and wash the contacts with the cleaner as youa re switching ON/OFF the switches.
Once the contacts seems clean allow time to dry off and recconnect washer to mains. If there is a marked change repeat the work if not the prime suspect can be the timer unit.( make sure your door lid swiches are good, clean them also)
