This is getting really frustrating - the saga of the timer for my 56 GE washer/dryer combination has another chapter with an unhappy ending... Turner's Timer Repair in Toronto sent it back to me with a 'sorry we can't fix this' note!! I don't get it - the problem is with the drive motor; surely that could be repaired/rewound/whatever, no?? Forgive the ranting, but I am now actually working on the new kitchen and I would love to get the GE combo in there, even if I can only get the washer part to work... My last hope would be Midwest Timer - but is it worth my while even trying?? |

Hey Paul, I don't know too much on timers, but since the timer motor was made by Ingraham clock company, that maybe you could find an old working electric desk clock or kitchen clock or something similar and sustitute the motor from that for what you need. Just a thought as you never know what you might find that may fill the bill. Doug |

What style timer is that model using? Do you have any pictures of it? If its a clamshell style, I have 2 rebuilt timers in the basement. |
