Two switches with two hallway lights-one delays going on.

It all depends on what kind of headlights. Most the relay is slowly going bad.

the dash lights is a lose ground or power connection the wipers could be a couple things there is a wiper relay that may be going bad or the wiper motor is going bad could even be both

You posted under 3-way switch.
Example of 3-way switch is a hallway with switch at each end of hallway.
If you have a different switch, then instructions below do not apply, so add a comment.

1) Your old switch has 3 screws: 1 dark screw and 2 brass screws.
New switch has same color screws.
If you can remember where wires went on old switch, then re-connect on new switch using color-coded screws.
This is why I learned to make notes or take a photo before disconnecting electrical device.

2) If you are uncertain where wires went on old switch, then we can test.
The testing takes more words than it does work, and it will resolve problem.
You are replacing one 3-way switch, but other 3-way switch is still in the wall and is wired correctly.
We will call the other switch: switch2
Move switch2 to down position.
Separate wires at new switch for testing.
Use ordinary two wire tester.
Tape tester leads to wood to keep hands away from power
Turn power ON.
Test each wire to bare ground wire.
Tester lights up on Hot wire. Mark this wire.

Now move switch2 to up position and repeat test.
Tester lights up on Hot wire so mark this wire.
>If same wire is Hot in each test, then this wire connects to dark screw. If this wire was also connected with another wire on old switch, then connect that other wire to brass screw also.
>If two different wires tested Hot, then these are the travelers, and each traveler connects to a brass screw. One traveler on one brass screw and other traveler on other brass screw, in any order.

Leave switch2 in up position. One wire is Hot and has power.
Test this wire to all other wires in box, except bare ground wire.
Tester lights up on Neutral wire(s). This wire(s) is not used in the 3-way circuit, so put a wire nut over Neutral.

Electrician test wiring before connecting anything.
First of all, you don't mention what type of switch was replaced.

1) Leviton 6230 countdown timer is made to replace single-pole light switch only.
Single pole is where 1 switch controls the Load (light fan motor)

Your wiring sounds like 3-way switch.
3-way is where 2 switches control same Load.
For example a hallway usually has 3-way switches.

To confirm. If old switch has 1 dark screw, 2 brass screws, and 1 green screw, then that is 3-way switch. Use Leviton LTB15, LTB30, LTB60, LTB02, LTB12 countdown timer for 3-way.

2) If old switch has 2 brass screws and 1 green screw then that is single-pole switch.

3) If you are replacing single-pole switch, here are testing & wiring instructions for Leviton timer.
Remove device and separate wires for testing.
Use ordinary two wire tester.
Tape tester leads to wood sticks so hands are away from power.
Do not untwist wires that were twisted together before you started.
Turn on power.
Test each wire to bare ground wire.
Tester lights up on Hot wire. This wire will connect to timer black wire.
Now you know Hot wire.
Test Hot wire to each of the other wires, excluding bare ground wire.
Tester lights up on neutral. Timer white wire connects to Neutral wire.
If box does not contain Neutral wire, then timer white wire connects to bare ground.

Timer green wire connects to bare ground wire.
Timer red wire connects to wire going to Load.

Is the bathroom light controlled by two switches?
Is the hallway light controlled by two switches?
What color wires are in the bathroom light switch that you changed?
Side wiring will not change the way the switch works.

I don't know the copper-brand 1301 switch
Internet photos of the 1301 show that it has two screw terminals, and a green ground screw
Switch with 2 screws is a single-pole switch. (plug green ground screw)

Sounds like you are replacing 3-way switch with 3 screws. (plus green ground screw)
3-way switches control hallway lights, with switch at each end of hallway.

I think you need to buy a 3-way switch.

How to wire 3-way switch:
Bare ground always goes to green screw
The key is the dark-colored screw.
Old switch has dark-colored screw >> mark this wire.
Attach this wire to dark-colored screw on new switch.
Other two wires go to either screw.

It is in a delay wash mode.
Disconnect power for 60 seconds.
Re-connect power.
Press the Cancel button.
Press the regular wash cycle and start the dw.

It sounds like you have what is called a three way switch for the upstairs light. This means that the light is controlled in two locations. The extra wire you refer to as a loop is called the traveller it goes between the two locations. You need to use the proper type of switch for 3 way applications. Once you get that there will be three holes instead of 2. the traveller usually installs in the hole that is alone (usually 2 holes on the bottom and one on the top). Any 3 way switch will come with instructions, or you should be able to find diagram easily on line.

Im not sure if you know what you got yourself into but i hope this helps. Sorry for all the words but this does take some reading if this is new to you.
